Never pretended the '14 Half-Elf kit was particularly compelling, just that I consider its existence as a necessary component for creating characters that feel like Khoravar to me.I like this example better than half-elves, as half-elves were just better versions of elves, while not mixing anything human into their suite of features.
Perhaps it would have looked a bit better if they'd given it an overhaul for '24 rather than chucking it in the bin.
It is, except I can no more have a Dwarf-Dragonborn that takes something mechanical from each of its parent species than I can a Khoravar that takes something from both human and elf. You may not consider that an issue, but I do.No. Because before, that mix wasn’t possible under the rules. You could homebrew that race but it did not exist in the game.
Now it does.
That’s a win right there.
All I need is a standardized system to mix and match species traits and I can take it from there, but saying "just homebrew one" still leaves the core game system lacking something that I see as a vital component if it truly wants mixed ancestry representation.
