New race creation

[Rabsares]

hello,

im building a campaign and wanted to build a playable race of undead,
now i tought: the warforged as a frame, but i want a little bit more flavour and racial feat so i had a couple of idea:

-had a cold resistance, same principle as the teifling and remove the war forge resolve

-had a feat that could give low light vision and a power to detect the living: at-will burst 3, detect if the creature in range are alive or dead (nothing too powerful i think, just flavourish)

-had a feat that give the possibility to develop a necrotic resistance 5+1/2 lvl

- a racial feature or a feat that give a +2 damage against unbloodied foes, representing the capacity or the hatraded for living thing

and i was thinking and i want your opinion: do the playable race of the MM are a little underpowered compared to the ones in the PHB, and maybe need a little boost here and there?

So tell me what you think about this

thank you for your help

Rab

the races from the MM are underpowered. for a good resource look to the PHB or even the Dragon magazine write-up of the Warforged (in which they give the Warforged more than the PHB gives any of its races, but it might be up your alley)
