This wasn’t a hypothetical example, BTW. My son really liked the description of genasi as the result of a baby born during an extreme elemental event, so that is how his water genasi was born to elf parents.I dont see any reason to cling to that RAW in light of the new rules though.
IMG I would have no issue with a Custom Lineage Elf taking Elven Accuracy or similar.
Whats broken about it? Pretty sure we've established (repeatedly) absolutely nothing.
Here are my follow-up questions:
- would you treat a genasi any differently than a custom lineage for the purposes of qualifying for racial feats?
- if not, does this mean that you believe believe racial feats are inherently cultural rather than biological, since a genasi with the proper parents could qualify for Elf Accuracy, Squat Nimbleness, Half-Orc Ferocity or Gnomish Fade Away?
