ECL Races

thats why those 2 were my low cost low magic solution

 

[Nightfall]

Exactly. But unfortunately I really can't think of any monsterous creature that lives in the deep that would work best to be both a land and sea dweller AND still be easy enough to use. Short of maybe a Storm giant. *thinks* Eh then again maybe not...

 

[Sanackranib]

Look up merefolk if you were only a 1/2 and the oter 1/2 was human you could breath underwater and would still get all the benifits of "human" since the merefolk have exactly the same benifits.

The storm Giant is just too much of an ECL

 

[Nightfall]

Exactly...but maybe you started out as 1 HD creature...might work up a little more...

Just an idea. But half and half seem the best choices overall.

 

[Sanackranib]

we were only starting out at 5th level so my options were somewhat limited. I figured nothing higher then ECL+2. pluss it was easy to run the "1/2 aquatic ogre idea" by the DM

 

[Nightfall]

Understandable. But I do hope maybe if you want to change up characters, you can. I'd think something like a Marid PC would be kind of neat...

 

[Sanackranib]

played one once at a con. it was big fun.

 

[Nightfall]

Cool. Might allow something like that in another game...if I ever run one. I'd certainly like to try out Genies as PCs.
