IIRC the Sheriff kit had mild rogue feelings, while being a respected member of society, also a little bit lazy.What does the Halfling Sheriff do that a Halfling fighter can't?
Nah, it wouldn't be too hard to do subclasses for eachThat depends on the edition and class really.
Like a Gnome Artificer would be Rogue subclass in older editions but could be its own class in a new edition.
Whereas a Dwarven Defender would be hardpressed to have subclasses unless you add something like Runeknights and Stone Wardens in it or combined it with Battleragers and Axedwarves.
In later editions, due to the greater demand of options, you would have to combine more sources of inspiration in order to be able to split them up afterward. You would have to combine the Gnome Artificer and Gnome Illusionist into a single Gnome Gadgeteer that creates minor magic items via infusions. Or combine the Bladesinger and Arcane Archer into a single Elven Magic Warrior class with each weapon being their own subclass.
I’d be more inclined to do it with subclasses than full classes. And the blade singers are excellent examples of how they can work. You just need the stamina to hold to the restrictions because nothing says wasted effort more than building a restricted option only to open it up at the first request.Okay, what about reversing this - making race-only subclasses for the existing classes? I think they tried this in Sword Coast (with Bladesinger), but decided to abandon it.
Such as Fighter; subclass Dwarven Defender?

That's the keyLike so many things it would work well if it reinforces a setting but without a setting to reinforce people would complain it is needlessly restrictive.
