[QUOTE="FalcWP, post: 3370364, member: 16858"] I like giving them a bonus on Intimidate checks, for starters. I don't see Strength as being worth two penalties, so I tend to drop the Charisma penalty. You might be better off dropping the Intelligence penalty, however, especially if you're replacing Darkvision with Low-Light vision; an intelligence penalty would make for a fairly stupid army. Throw in weapon proficiencies, and you're looking at: +2 Strength, -2 Charisma Low-Light Vision +2 bonus on Intimidate Checks Martial Weapon Proficiency: Handaxe, Throwing Axe, Battleaxe (and I'd give them one more, maybe Shortbow, to stay even with Elves) Favored Class: Fighter (Doesn't sound like Barbarian would fit what you have there) This might still be a bit light, so a +2 bonus on saves vs. fear could be added. However, it really depends on if Charisma is going to be useful in your game or not. If it isn't, then the above is probably fine - +2 Strength and Low-Light vision is nice for a warrior. If it is important, then it needs one, maybe two more small boosts (increased speed, bonus vs. fear, a couple more skill boosts, etc.) [/QUOTE]
