Gnelves make their parent races look dull with, their unparalleled curiosity and inquisitiveness; they are the true wonderers, and wanderers. They have the natural talent of magic of both races, and the love of nature as much as is seen so strong in the two parents of this species.
Gnelves, stand almost 4’ foot high, and have an almost pixie like resemblance to fae, with pointy ears, amid the length of both species. Although not so skinny as their Elven cousins the are still as hardy as there gnomish relatives and there stature does nothing to down there natural nimbleness, and innate smarts; Inventors, adventurers, and craftsmen. They are likely entrepreneurs, rogues, wizards, and many other talents are open to them, although one rare thing is a Gnelvish cleric, or paladin, Gnelvish barbarians are only half as rare, but do not frequent the numbers as often as other class choices (other then the stuffy alternative of paladins and clerics).
Most Gnelves end up 605 at the concluding part of there years, some have been known to live up to 675 years. Most of this time is spent joking and laughing, and like gnome they adore practical jokes, almost even more then gnomes, but as gnomes they never harm (or intend to anyway).
• Immunity to magic sleep spells and effects.
• +2 racial bonus to Will saves against enchantment spells or effects.
• Low-Light Vision: Gnelves can see twice as far as a human in starlight, moonlight, torchlight, etc.
• +2 racial bonus to Search, Spot, and +3 Listen checks.
• +2 racial bonus to saving throws against illusions and enchantments.
• +1 racial bonus to attack rolls against kobolds and goblinoids.
• +4 dodge bonus against giants
• +2 racial bonus to Alchemy checks
• +1 to enchantments and illusions
Spells: Gnelves with Intelligence scores of 10 or higher may cast dancing lights, ghost sound, prestidigitation, and daze each once per day as a 1st-level sorcerer (spell failure penalties for armor apply).
Speak with Animals (Sp): Once per day a Gnelf can use speak with animals as a 1st-level druid to communicate with a Forest animal 1/day
Combat:
Gnelves prefer ambushes, with spell use then assault, seeing the show of combined enchantment and illusion magic is quite scary.
The favoured class is bard
The way to determine the Weight height and age of Gnelves is thus:

Advancement:-
They are dubbed horrible failures by ancient scrolls that lie about ruined cities.
They appear like small smooth tear-drop shaped lumps of green jelly, although they usually attack in groups.
Combat:
Plaze swarm and over run, they attack anything they can find wood, creatures, metal if it sees another object it will attack it, the only thing they will not attack are other oozes.
Special abilities:
Regeneration (Ex): Electricity deals normal damage to a Plaze, all other damage is subduel.
Groove (Ex): Whenever confronted with decent music (above DC 20), the Plaze immediately quivers with joy, stopping all aggressive action and just grooving until the music ceases (perform checks are required every round)
Acid trail (Ex): The Plaze excretes a natural acid from itself that causes any creature walking over it to take 1 point of acid damage each round on the acid. In water the trail is 10ft wide instead of 5ft. TYhis ability is only activated when aggravated and stops after 1d4 rounds of combat. It also deals 1d4 acid damage with its attacks; the Plaze is immune to its own acid.
Blindsight (Ex): Ooze’s entire body is a primitive sensory organ that can ascertain prey by scent and vibration within 60 feet.
Ooze (Ex): Immune to mind-influencing effects, poison, sleep, paralysis, stunning, and polymorphing. Not subject to critical hits.
Replicate (Ex): As the Plaze is an asexual creature it’s only method of reproduction is as follows: After having grappled a creature of at least diminutive size for 2 rounds, it deals 1d4 damage, and uses this matter to create another Plaze with bonus HP equal to the damage dealt.

A playful Creature that is only just related to the Plaze, they seem to have been altered to be a far more friendly creature, first of all, It has a mind so it can feel guilt, and care; Second it can administer a numbing anaesthetic which will help with painful cuts and grazes. It also has the strange power to change colour. Others theorize it is the success in the same experiment that caused the failed Plaze.
Combat:
It doesn’t fight, and if backed into a corner after being attacked and against and obviously evil opponent, it uses its numbing attack, and then it will try to flee again.
Special Attacks:
Numbing (Ex): After a successful touch, (although it maybe a normal slam) a Playze can cause numbness and loss of pain this reduces dexterity by four.
Special abilities
Groove (Ex): Whenever confronted with decent music (above DC 20), the Playze immediately quivers with joy, stopping all action and just grooving until the music ceases (perform checks are required every round)
Change colour (Su): At will the Playze can change colour, this is only simple blues and reds and other colours, but no great feats like the chameleon.
Blindsight (Ex): Ooze’s entire body is a primitive sensory organ that can ascertain prey by scent and vibration within 60 feet
Ooze Traits/Sentience: Whilst they have the body of an ooze they have been given sentience so these altered rules apply
Ooze: Immune to poison, paralysis, stunning, and polymorphing. Not subject to critical hits. However As they are sentient they can be put to sleep (although only by effects requiring will saves, they cannot be knocked unconscious) and Mind-influencing effects

What you see ahead of you is a white misty ‘cloud’, with small tendrils that float as it moves.
Wisps (Also known as whispers) are the goodly aligned cousins of Will o’ wisp. They vary in abilities from their evil cousins. They tend to be extremely shy, and introspective. Yet many a wizard has gone that way, because of a bonding with them as familiars. As Whisps are intelligent they are sometimes the one to propose that they become familiars to wizards, although they are not the only characters they befriend.
On sight they seem to be very small Air elementals
Spell Immunity (Ex): A whisp is immune to most spells or spell-like abilities that allow spell resistance, except magic missile and maze.
Telepathy (Su): Whisps can communicate telepathically with any creature it touches that has a language. It can also tell the alignment, and race of the creature by performing this.

A Dog-faced, spiny creature stands before you, the body is covered in sparse hair that sprouts from in between the leathery armour plates. It swings a large weighted tail, and clacks its beaky jaw.
Yurisi are militant amphibious creatures, resembling some sort of cross breed between Ankylosaurus and a bear.
They are mainly an underground race, but not in the same way as Drow may be, they burrow and make lairs in the hard sand deep under beaches, then when creatures wander on to there territory, they strike, pulling them down and suffocating them in the sand. Not all Yurisi live in the sand, the larger, or elder of the species live in the water, or sometimes in outlets in the underdark. Another place that they dwell is underwater; groups of Yurisi can take down whole galleys in a matter of minutes. The Yurisi’s armoured shell has small opening that act as gills, some of this air can be kept in pockets to be used as a buoyancy aid.
Combat
Being an extremely ‘social’ race, they prefer to attack in groups, flanking, distracting and backstabbing.
Improved Grab (Ex): To use this ability, the Yurisi must hit a Medium-size or smaller opponent with its bite attack. If it gets a hold, the Yurisi grabs the opponent with its claws and drags it deep underground, attempting to rend it and let it suffocate. Yurisi can still rend underground.
Rend (Ex): If a Yurisi hits with both claw attacks, it latches onto the opponent’s body and tears the flesh. This attack automatically deals an additional 2d6+9 points of damage.
Vibration sense(Ex): Not only can Yurisi sense those within 60ft on land it also retains this ability whilst submerged.
Tactics (Ex): Due to extensive team training the Yurisi gain certain benefits when working together, when ever flanking an opponent they may distract it and make it incur an AoO, all Yurisi are taught this trick as all are given formal millitant training.
And so ends this chapter in my 3.5 monster collection.

The Yurisi’s armoured shell has small opening that act as gills, some of this air can be kept in pockets to be used as a buoyancy aid.
Combat
Being an extremely ‘social’ race, they prefer to attack in groups, flanking, distracting and backstabbing.
Improved Grab (Ex): To use this ability, the Yurisi must hit a Medium-size or smaller opponent with its bite attack. If it gets a hold, the Yurisi grabs the opponent with its claws and drags it deep underground, attempting to rend it and let it suffocate. Yurisi can still rend underground.
Rend (Ex): If a Yurisi hits with both claw attacks, it latches onto the opponent’s body and tears the flesh. This attack automatically deals an additional 2d6+9 points of damage.
Vibration sense(Ex): Not only can Yurisi sense those within 60ft on land it also retains this ability whilst submerged.
Tactics (Ex): Due to extensive team training the Yurisi gain certain benefits when working together, when ever flanking an opponent they may distract it and make it incur an AoO, all Yurisi are taught this trick as all are given formal millitant training.
And so ends this chapter in my 3.5 monster collection.
