Hobgoblin PC Question

[Badger]

All,

I was recently accepted into a group as a hobgoblin char with the only downside is my lack of knowledge on if there are any +/- to its stats as a race.

Could anyone out there help fill me in on what the racial traits are?

Thanks in advance...

Dex +2, Con +2. I believe that this is a +1 ECL race ...

Yup.

When you say "+/- to stats," do you specifically mean ability scores? There are certainly other racial traits, at least one of which is a bonus (+4 to Move Silently checks).

 

[Badger]

Basically, I need all the info on the race I can get as far as stats +/- go, as well as any +/- to skills they have as a race.

If I'm not mistaken they have Darkvision 60', but that is about all I know as far as their racial abilities go.

Thanks in advance once more...

No, it's a +0 race, unless they changed it in a newer copy, I still got the 1st printing of the DMG. But even if they did I'd still keep it at a +0 ECL cause its just a lil more powerful than standard races and he would have certain social stigmas. This race is nowhere near Plane-Touched(all of which are +1 ECL's)

Yes, I'd say the Hobgoblin is an LA +0 creature. It doesn't have extra hit dice or any freaky special abilities aside from Darkvision (I think, maybe Lowlight Vision).

What gets under my skin is that a Gnoll is a LA +2 creature.

Gnolls have to be +2 because they have 2 HD.

 

[Crothian]

Gnolls have to be +2 because they have 2 HD.

Ya, that does make a slight difference.

The stigma of the race was why I opted to try my hand at one, then I kicked myself in the butt due to the lack of info I had on them besides the MM.

I do appreciate the help on this one....
