[QUOTE="evolved, post: 1543175, member: 17368"] one dex and str are equivalent stats so thats good Race one is a very weak +1 LA effectively 2 feats (bonus and weapon familiarities) and +3 skill bonuses i know they halfling gets more but its balanced by being small, and elves get even more but they are unbalanced and everyone knows it I'd advise dropping either bola or bastard swors familiarty (I'd advise the bastard sword beacause one level in the big weapon classes: Fighter, Ranger, Barbarian, Paladin, or Psychic Warrior, and the sword can still be used two handed with the bolas for ranged) also drop one skill bonus, I'd also advise if your going to give them a dex penalty that you explain why they train with a ranged weapon like the bola, or give them access to the axethrower feat from Players Guide to faurune Race 2 Big balance issue here is craft is potencialy dozens of seperate skills, might be a good idea to limit how many crafts this bonus can apply to, why is forgery on the list it doesn't seem to work with the others, Finally why is a race with an int penalty getting bonuses to all int skills? Race 3 Ok first off all the same problems as with number 2 next how does this run ability work with the run feat and why does race 3 look like race number 2 definatly drop some skill bonus here Race 4 Balance is okay but its rather bland it looks like the other half of race 3 Overall some text about there roll in the world would help try to differ the abilities more favored classes really give a handle on a races motivations so those would be helpful [/QUOTE]
