[QUOTE="tuxgeo, post: 4421421, member: 61026"] Some suggestions (based on D&D 3.5): Algar: Favored Class: Ranger -- for Favored Enemy (Murgos!), and the Wild Empathy ability (at least among the Sha-Dar). Tolnedran: Appraise is a class skill (think of Ce'Nedra coaxing the legions); but Diplomacy is also a class skill (think of the Emperor sending draft agreement after draft agreement to Riva for Belgarion's approval/dismissal). Your typical Tolnedran wants to be rich enough to be an Aristocrat, but they are all Merchants at heart. Marag: Profession (Oldest) is a class skill. Favored Class: Bard (as they apparently spent most of their time entertaining each other). Alignment: Often Horizontal. Sendar: Favored Class: Factotum (from Dungeonscape). (It had to be said.) Nadrak: Profession (Mining) and Profession (Trapping) are class skills. Mallorean: Diplomacy is a class skill. (Position was everything to them.) Favored Class: Fighter. (Everybody in Mal Zeth had a military rank, even the garbage-collectors.) Melcene: Knowledge (any) is a class skill. (Having the best University in the world would do that for them.) Favored Class: Pedant. (Oh, alright: Wizard. From all of that studying.) Alignment: Often Neutral. I disregard the Morindim and Karands; they should not be playable. [/QUOTE]
