Nebuchadnezzar
First Post
I have made the minotaur a new race for players to choose and play. It is not important for me that the minotaur be an exact copy of the one in the Monster's Manual. Also, I won't post the fluff, only the crunch. Is it balanced?
The Minotaur
* +6 Strength, -2 Dexterity, -2 Wisdom, -2 Intelligence. Minotaurs are extremely strong, but their large bulk makes them slow and they are infamous for making rash decisions and unwise judgements.
* Large: As Large creatures, minotaurs have a -1 size modifier to Armor Class, a -1 size modifier on attack rolls, and a -4 modifier on Hide checks. Minotaurs can use larger weapons than humans use, and their lifting and carrying limits are double those of Medium-size characters.
* Minotaurs have ten feet reach.
* Minotaurs are immune to the maze spell.
* Armor suited for a minotaur must be custom-made and costs twice the amount of normal armor.
* +1 racial bonus on Search, Spot and Listen checks: Minotaurs have keen senses.
* +4 racial bonus on Intimidate checks: Minotaurs tend to unnerve most creatures with their large stature and awesome strength.
* Automatic Language: Minotaur.
* Favored Class: Barbarian.
* Level Adjustment +2: Minotaurs are more powerful and gain levels more slowly than most of the other common races on Khanesh.
What do you think?
