[QUOTE="Ferrix, post: 504416, member: 6115"] They aren't specifically based off of Panthers, the "pantherian" is used to denote their feline origin, not a specific feline origin. They are a barbaric people, their warriors often renowned for their furious rage. And yes it is true it is hard to sneak up on a cat, but that is more in respect to their hearing and smell and a great deal less on their site so I alertness would not match correctly. A +2 move silently and a +2 listen seemed more appropriate plus it allows them to gain the alertness feat if they see fit in the future. The hind attack might not be a bad idea, I actually just looked at the animal section in the back of the MM and realized a lot of the rake damages are one step down from their base claw attack. So I might instead make it two attacks at 1d3 a piece, true this keeps their strength bonus adding more but I still feel it is more appropriate to have it as two attacks. In addition, their are racial feats which allow the Ky'Atrah race to expand their natural weapon abilities, one increases the damage of their claws, another adds a bite attack and so on. As well as possible scent, darkvision, etc. We are also going to create a prestige class that allows a Ky'Atrah to focus upon their natural weapons as their primary which allows them to keep them a viable option at higher level if they prefer it. ~Ferrix [/QUOTE]
