One of the things I'm surprised that we readers haven't seen is an alternative to ECLs. Creatures with 1 hit die or templates that just stack onto existing characters often put then in a situation where despie their power, they are overclassed. Half-Ogres and Half-Dragons come to my mind right away. Sure, you've got a 20+ strength, but only 14 hit points. It doesn't do you a lot of good.
XP penalties for x amount of levels?
abilities that you grow into?
Something else?
I'm really hoping that someone can show a method to have a balanced and easy to use alternative to ECL because the ECL doesn't cut it all the time.
