[QUOTE="Melfast, post: 4500764, member: 17870"] [b]Duergar Traits[/b] Nivenus, Thanks for the comments! I'm not sure how, but you seem to have been looking at the original and not the updated version of the race write-up I posted last night. In the updated version, the duergar have +2 Con and +2 Int, and their number of racial abilites was substantially adjusted for balance reasons. I kept the racial tie with surface dwarves becasue of the history of the race in DND. There are also a few magic items and feats that are keyed to specific races, so I included much as half-elves get to count as human or elven for purposes of selecting racial feats. When I click on the hide box in my original post, it shows me the updated write-up. Please let me know if it isn't showing it (the old Con +2. Wis + 2 racial ability mods will be the sure indicator that you are seeing the wrong version. This is the first time I've used sblock to try and hide text like this, so I'm a little gun-shy of using it for fear that somehow someone will not be able to see what I planned for them to see. Based on your comments, I think you'll like the updated version better than the original (I do anyway). Thanks. Melfast [/QUOTE]
