Spoiler: Fey Armour, Martial Moonfolk, Unearthly GraceFey Armour
Like the fey of the wilderness, you fear only the touch of cold iron.

Martial Moonfolk
You have trained to use your spells even while clad in armour.
Prerequisites
Moonfolk, Battle Caster.
Benefits
While wearing armor or using a shield with which you are proficient, you can cast arcane spells without incurring the normal arcane spell failure chance.
Special
A fighter may select Martial Moonfolk as one of his bonus fighter feats.
Unearthly Grace
You are as graceful as any fey.
Prerequisites
Fey type, Cha 12.
Benefits
You gain the unearthly grace special quality, as a nymph. Add your Charisma modifier as an untyped bonus to all your saving throws and as a deflection bonus to your Armour Class.Last edited by rferries; 2017-10-13 at 06:30 PM.

Re: Eldritch-Knight-ready, undead-themed fey PC race
Well, whenever I get back to my old game this will be one of the characters I introduce now... along with an elf and a pair of Dvati assassin's... if the DM allows the homebrew & all that is...
I would give them a bonus on diplomacy/bluff checks with intelligent undead.
Martial Moonfolk: I would make this light+medium armors along with shields, then they have ti burn another feat to get heavies, (The feat in complete arcane/mage, not sure which)Homebrew: If it is mine feel free to PEACH and/or use it.
Extended Signature
Well, it seems that life has deposited me here, yet again. Hopefully this time I get to stay a while, as I intend on revising some old homebrew.

Re: Eldritch-Knight-ready, undead-themed fey PC race
I'm not going to lie, I read that normally and almost had a heart attack when I got to the spellcasting. "WHAT?! How high is the L- +1 LA FOR THAT AT LEVEL ON-oh.... Racial Hit Dice.... Gotcha." I then continued to read it and saw it was extremely balanced compared to my freak out.

Re: Eldritch-Knight-ready, undead-themed fey PC race
Yeah, perhaps I should have rearranged the order - or posted it as a monster stat-block.

Re: Eldritch-Knight-ready, undead-themed fey PC race
I think they are sort of cool and I will allow them in may camping but here are thinks that I would need to know (to properly build them into world)
> what are they ranges for, age, height and weight?
> what role do they play in society/world?

Re: Eldritch-Knight-ready, undead-themed fey PC race
They are fey... so around the smae as what you would give a nymph etc
> what role do they play in society/world?I mean ebberon they might work for the one kingdom (where the bone knight is from) but in another they may be the lords of Tol-darth, masters of the secrest of death, and through this mastery of life...

Re: Eldritch-Knight-ready, undead-themed fey PC race
wouldn't this be horribly awesome for a sorcerer? Lose 1 level of casting & you can cast in heavy armor...
Also why do you get skills x9, shouldn't it be x6 or x7?Last edited by Goaty14; 2017-10-29 at 10:29 PM.

Re: Eldritch-Knight-ready, undead-themed fey PC race
LA hurts sorcerers even more than other casters as they're already a spell level "behind"; I agree this race is powerful but I'm not sure it's worth LA+2. Compare also the Battle Sorcerer variant. Finally, you have to invest your precious feats to get the full benefits, and casting in armour really isn't overpowered (it's just one of those traditions, like wizards not having healing magic), e.g. compare bracers of armour.

Re: Eldritch-Knight-ready, undead-themed fey PC race
I agree with rferries, and wouldn't play (no offense meant, just the power level I play at most the time) it with LA +2. Besides you are losing 2 feats, meanwhile abjurant champion is just kinda rocking out with a solid +13 to AC with no otherr boosts just from greater luminous armor (spell in BoED) and their +5 from class.
It's fine in my opinion (In fact, I think you could probably drop the LA altogether), and now I'm trying to use it in 2 games. I'll leave feedback on how it played if I get in them
