    Default [4E] Ecology of the Genasi

    In a similar vein to the Dragonborn ecology article, the Genasi get a stock background:

    Getcher article right here!

    The only crunch is in the form of a handful of feats, but they are the first to make powers Reliable that aren't Fighter powers. (Ok, the Rogue gets exactly one. )

    I didn't give the article an extensive read, but I like it myself. The idea of Genasi as a race in its own right, as opposed to half-breeds, appeals to me for some reason...I never liked that the Planetouched races of 3ed were set stats rather than Templates...

    I like that a Genasi can manifest more than 1 aspect as well...that's just cool! I'm not sure about the Storm 'element' though...I've always kind of imagined 'storm' as being the combination of all four classical elements; so a Genasi that can manifest Fire, Earth, Air and Water could then have the ability to manifest Storm as a combination of all 4...might just be me...
    I apologise if I come across daft. I'm a bit like that. I also like a good argument, so please don't take offence if I'm somewhat...forthright.

    Please be aware; when it comes to 5ed D&D, I own Core (1st printing) and SCAG only. All my opinions and rulings are based solely on those, unless otherwise stated. I reserve the right of ignorance of errata or any other source.

    I like. I wasn't expecting them to look so inhuman, though.
    Thanks to Veera for the avatar.

    I keep my stories in a blog. You should read them.
