Reworking Racial Paragons

[Dog Moon]

Out of curiosity, why do you dislike [I assume dislike only because you didn't go with three] the three level paragon classes as in Unearthed Arcana?

I always liked the idea that you could take a couple of levels to improve your racial abilities, but it wasn't enough to seem like a 'real' class, so you aren't focusing your character around the class so much.

Also, since you can technically take them even at first level, if you have them with 5-6 levels, it means not even having to take a normal Base Class. Though others might not mind, I just dislike that idea.

Because 3-level classes don't fit into builds very well, and can't fit enough abilities to truly represent what I think a racial paragon should be.

Also, since you can technically take them even at first level, if you have them with 5-6 levels, it means not even having to take a normal Base Class. Though others might not mind, I just dislike that idea.

Personally, I like the idea a lot for some concepts.
