Message: <blockquote data-quote="Mengu" data-source="post: 4820936" data-attributes="member: 65726">Here is a race I'm working on for my campaign. The race is based on the insectoid race from star wars by the same name, with some liberties taken to fit system and my campaign needs. I won't bore you with the campaign specific details, I would like some feedback on the game mechanics.KILLIKThis insectoid race typically has a communal society, and they rarely leave their hives. Those who live in the hive long enough develop mental contact with the hive mind. Those who have been separated lose this ability, but retain some portion of a telepathic connection they can use on their enemies or allies.<img src="http://www.ossus.pl/images/2/27/250px-Killik_NEGAS.jpg" alt="" class="fr-fic fr-dii fr-draggable " data-size="" style="" />RACIAL TRAITS:Average Height: 5’2” – 6’6”Average Weight: 80 – 160Ability Scores: +2 Dexterity, +2 ConstitutionSize: MediumSpeed: 6 SquaresVision: Low-lightLanguages: Common, Deep SpeechSkill Bonuses: +2 Dungeoneering, +2 InsightArmored Chitin: You gain a +2 armor bonus to AC, and a +2 racial bonus to Fortitude.
