[QUOTE="Aleolus, post: 4341492, member: 53423"] All right, all. Here's a race I statted up in my spare time from a comic I read called [url=www.egscomics.com]El Goonish Shive[/url]. They are called the Uryuoms, and they are a shapeshifting, alien race in the comic. Here's how I converted them. Opinions? Small Humanoid (as small creatures, Uryuorms have a +1 size bonus on attack rolls and AC, and a +4 bonus on Hide checks, but uses smaller weapons than normal, and their lifting and carrying capacity is only 3/4 of what it would be for a medium character) -2 Str, +2 Int, +2 Wis Uryuorms have a base move speed of 20 feet Uryuorms are very good at remaining innoculous in any society, even while in plain sight. When disguised, the only people who notice the disguise are those actively looking for them, or those who they have met before. [B]Alternate Forms (Ex)[/B]: All Uryuorms are natural shapeshifters. Whenever a Uryuorm is subjected to a spell which transforms them, such as Polymorph, Baleful Polymorph, or similar, they can thenafter change into and from that form at will, as a standard action. [B]Language Transfer (Ex)[/B]: All Uryuorms have the ability to rapidly teach or learn any language to or from any creature. As a standard action, a Uryuorms can make a melee touch attack against a single creature. If successful, one of two things may happen. Either they Uryuorms permanently learns one language that the target possesses, or the Uryuorms teaches one language they possess to the target, the Uryuorms's choice. Uryuorms can only use this ability while in their natural form, and can use it to learn otherwise secret languages. If the target does not possess a language they wish to learn, the attempt fails. [B]Favored Class[/B]: Wizard. Note that most Uryuorms Wizards specialize in the Transmutation school of magic. [B]Automatic Languages[/B]: Common and Uryuomoco. Bonus Languages: Any. LA: +1 [/QUOTE]
