[QUOTE="dragonfriend7738, post: 5884279, member: 6691820"] A friend and I are creating a homebrew world, and I've run into a bit of a snag with 3 of the races/modifications that we've been planning. 1. I saw an idea on giant in the playground that struck my fancy and I'm going to impliment it here- a marine, amphibious fey trader race that serves as a merchant trading force for all the various nations/continents of the world. As far as I know, this would be a completely custom race, and I've no idea where to start for it. (page that talks about the Traders: [url=http://www.giantitp.com/articles/9hktFVfS2ZaHiPsj21F.html]Giant In the Playground Games[/url]) 2. A race of tech savvy goblins that manages to gather the other goblinoid races together into a workable society. My idea is that their entire 'religion', per se, is about technology- any mages/sorcerers they produce would consider their magic to be an aspect of science rather than mysticism. 3. A race of empathic elves- they're going to replace all the other elf types, and they'd only be 5% of the general world population. No serious offensive psionic capabilities, and an ability to sink skill points into an empathy skill that would allow them to increase the effectiveness of their ability to sense and effect other people's emotions. I'd also need an NPC empath healer class, as that's what their favored class would be. Any ideas/suggestions for me? I'd really appreciate it. [/QUOTE]
