Elf Prestige Class

[coolgamertagbro]

This week I am continuing the old school love for races as classes with the Elf Prestige Class: http://sterlingvermin.com/2015/12/09/prestige-class-elf/


Copied from the blog:


Fair folk, gather round!


To be honest when I posted the Dwarf Prestige Class last week I hadn't even started seriously working on any other race prestige class. When I started getting a lot of good feedback from various corners of the internet I realized I had struck on something people were looking for so I doubled my efforts to get the Elf Prestige Class down on digital paper.


The Elf Prestige Class uses some of the same tricks as the Dwarf Prestige Class (giving spells that are more functional in nature and represent folklore) but also introduces some new ideas (the Spellcasting Style, for instance). Also, if you squint, you might be able to predict some of the incoming revisions to the Dwarf Prestige Class based on how similar features work in the Elf Prestige Class.


Next week look forward to a review and revision of the Complete Martialist Handbook, the Dwarf Prestige Class, and the Elf Prestige Class as well as a discussion of the future of this blog and its contributors!

Love it. Make you elf even more elveny.

As a matter of interest, for a campaign on Eberron, what would the races there count as? And what would the Star Elf count as?

Thanks so much!

I am not super familiar with Eberron. Let me do a quick minute of research and then I'll get back to you on that. Do those subraces have published rules yet in 5e?

Not yet. I would have expected the Valenar Elves (double scimitar wielding warriors) to have been in the Unearthed Arcana supplement concerning Eberron, and having no elf subraces in the Sword Coast Adventurers Guide was pretty insulting to Ed Greenwood in my book

For some reason I am having trouble finding extensive info on elf subraces in Eberron but here are my suggestions based on what I have been able to find.

Aerenal count as High Elves, Valenar count as Wood Elves, Khorvaire can count as any elf subrace (their choice), and Drow count as Drow.

Does that seem to line up pretty well?
