[QUOTE="The Black Kestrel, post: 2137856, member: 4903"] In general the racial levels are designed to allow a character to become an "Iconic" version of his race nad they rend to concetrate thier special abilities on things the race is all ready good at it. I personally like the idea and it has found it's way into my campaign. If you don't like the idea of racial classes, even short 3 level ones the perhaps the idea of racial substitution levels will appeal to you instead. WotC came up with the level subtitution idea (though they are spiritual descendants of Arcana Unearthed's Racial Levels) in the Planar Handbook ([url]http://www.wizards.com/default.asp?x=dnd/ex/20040706a&page=2[/url] for an example) and they are continued in the various "Races of" series. Pick three levels in 2-3 classes closely related to a races archetype and then come up with three new abilities that replace existing abilities. Only the specific race gets the option of choosing them. [/QUOTE]
