    quickling

    is there a 3.5 (or even a 3.0) version of the quickling? In 2e the quickling was basically an evil sprite. It had no wings, but was insanely fast, thus the name. -Dross

    For a game I am running I need to build a high level elven warrior. So far I'm considering a bladesinger. I like the idea of a warrior-wizard blend. What are some other prestige classes that offer full BAB and advance spell casting class? I'm also open to other suggestions. - Dross

    What race gives evasion?

    The entry requirements for the magelord prc indicate that "you must have the evasion special quality as a class feature or a racial trait". This leads to my question: what race gets evasion as a racial trait? By the way, magelord appears in the Lost Empires of Faerun source book. -Dross
