[QUOTE="Redthistle, post: 7036983, member: 6778305"] So, you're a member of the genasi-loving club, too, eh? Like you, [MENTION=50658]Rem[/MENTION]athlis (here on ENWorld) adapted the five basic 4e genasi options to 5e because he couldn't wait for official versions to come out (this was back when the 5e PHB had just been released). I liked those, and added them to my home campaign. Here's the link to his work: [url]http://www.enworld.org/forum/showthread.php?361168-D-amp-D-Conversion-Races#ixzz3EZpZfqr9[/url] More recently, [MENTION=6855057]QuietBrowser[/MENTION] (also on ENWorld) added a number of other genasi variants. Qb's offerings were inspired by (an article?/story?/adventure?/blog?) by Quoth the Raven (#7) that involved the corrupting influence of Strahd's Barovia on genasi. This introduced the Dread Genasi: grave, pyre, mist, and blood, plus the alternate elements of storm, metal, wood, and ice, and also one Wasteland Elemental, the sun genasi. Quietbrowser's link: [url]http://www.enworld.org/forum/showthread.php?489755-QB-s-Monstrous-Races/page3#ixzz4ORCmUvH6[/url] After doing a side-by-side comparison of your's and Remathlis's adaptions from 4e, I am very pleased to report that there is more than enough daylight between your respective versions to be considered separate and distinct. Bringing your work into my campaign world now brings the total to 24 variations (including the official) on "How to Be a Genasi." Even the variant human cultures I've collected from 5e-compatible official and 3PP sources are fewer in number. Oh, be still, my pulsing energy lines! Oh, Happy, Happy Day! [/QUOTE]
