[QUOTE="frankthedm, post: 3209457, member: 1164"] I'd change it to no HD and ditch the charisma negative since that is no penalty to those who would go half ogre purely for the numbers and kills the half ogre paladin. Immunity to humanoid affecting ailments is not something a LA+1 should have unless that is it’s main feature IMHO. . +4 Strength, +2 Constitution, –2 Dexterity, –2 Intelligence Medium size with +2/-2 on size related checks due to mass. Humaniod type, [Human] subtype, [giant blood] subtype {vulnerable to special effects that affect giants as their giant ancestors are, and they can use magical items that are only usable by giants] speed: 30 feet. Monkey grip as a bonus feat. {I call it Ogre’s Grip] Proficiency with the greatclub and Large heavy mace [2 hands, no hit penaty] Treat the medium weapons that are exotic due to weight as martial :Bastard swords, war hammer, greatspear etc.. Darkvision: like the ogre Low-Light Vision: granted from purifying the giant blood Automatic Languages: Common and Giant. Bonus Languages: Abyssal, Draconic, Gnoll, Goblin, and Orc. Human bonus skill points Favored Class: Any I think this is fair for LA+1, If not drop the Int penalty [possibly drop the bonus skill points] [/QUOTE]
