I'll go with halflings. But only if they're bards.remove the trait, or the halflings, take your pick.
Seconded. I had to remove so many rules from 3e that I just made a whole new game.There is nothing wrong with house ruling. So there's no reason to be at all upset about a rule you don't like in the game that you have to remove.
I already know several house rules I'm going to be incorporating into my 5E24 game. And that's completely okay.
That being said, @Belen might like to try my Hero Points instead:
- PCs get one per character level after a long rest, capped by character level.
- The benefit is a +d6 to the following check.
- The DM can award another for any reason, but hindering oneself and the Rule of Cool usually are worth one.
- In Modos RPG, a Hero Point also activates something cool about the character. I have a PC who experiences a supernatural vision when he uses hero points, and another whose experience in demonic realms provides various planes-related benefits when she uses them. The d6 is hardly unbalancing, and the PCs feel a jolt of coolness when they do something unique and\or heroic.
