[QUOTE="WaterRabbit, post: 52338, member: 2445"] [b]Ok, this might work[/b] How often have these showed up in the campaign ? If they haven't shown up too frequently, then most of what has been established could be chalked up to stories and legends. IMO, to make it balanced with humans, their stat bonuses need to zero out (remember that str is a double stat) and the need to have one great trait and one good trait. So, I would suggest the following: +2 STR, -2 INT, -2 CHA (just like half-orcs) They are strong {+2 Str} They value might over reason {-2 Int} They are warlike {-2 Cha} Pounce [When a Leonine charges they get all of their attacks] This would be a fearsome charge. Run [They have the Run Feat] This would give them speed. There is limit to how fast two legs will take you. Fast [+5 bonus to base movement when lightly encumbered] These two feats would give you a race that runs two miles per hour faster than the standard human. This would give you a balanced race.
