[QUOTE="Sertimon, post: 1266713, member: 5503"] [b]More changes![/b] I have determined to go a different route with the ambyr and make them similar to the spiders that inspired this race, the Salticidae if I recall correctly. They are also known as the jumping spiders. This means that I will give ambyrs increased vision and perception despite having a penalty to Wisdom (they still lack focus). The emotion/feeling entry gave me too much headache, so I decided to remove it completely. Don’t want people to scream “vulcans” or anything when they read about this race. ;) [B][COLOR=Silver][SIZE=2][FONT=Arial]Here's a rundown of what has changed this time: [/FONT] [/SIZE] [/COLOR] [/B] - Completely revamped the flavor text to match the Ambyrs racial traits and eventually racial class - Changed Cha penalty to Wis penalty and reworded the description slightly - Added low-light vision to the Ambyr racial traits - Added +2 racial bonus on Search and Spot checks - Renamed Natural Leaper to Great Leaper - Moved Great Leaper to 3rd level on the Ambyr racial class - Removed the Improved Chitinous Hide gained at 3rd level - Added the Sharpsighted ability to 1st level on the Ambyr racial class - Added Survival to racial skill list - Removed Hide and Tumble from the racial skill list So what do people think of these changes? Is it too powerful now? Please help me out! Thanks! [/QUOTE]
