[QUOTE="Psychotic Dreamer, post: 215704, member: 977"] After sitting down and giving departments and races some thoughts. I'm going to drop the attribute bonuses from the departments and just keep the other bonuses they give. Races: [U]Dwarves[/U] +2 Constitution, -2 Charisma. Medium size. Dwarven base speed is 20 feet. [B]Darkvision[/B]: Dwarves can see in the dark up to 60 feet. Darkvision is black and white only, but it is otherwise like normal sight, and dwarves can function just fine with no light at all. [b]Stonecunning[/b]: Stonecunning grants dwarves a +2 racial bonus on checks to notice unusual stonework, such as sliding walls, stonework traps, new construction (even when built to match the old), unsafe stone surfaces, shaky stone ceilings, and the like. Something that isn't stone but that is disguised as stone also counts as unusual stonework. A dwarf who merely comes within 10 feet of unusual stonework can make a check as if he were actively searching, and a dwarf can use the Search skill to find stonework traps as a rogue can. A dwarf can also intuit depth, sensing his approximate depth underground as naturally as a human can sense which way is up. Dwarves have a sixth sense about stonework, an innate ability that they get plenty of opportunity to practice and hone in their underground homes. +2 racial bonus on saving throws against poison. +1 racial bonus to attack rolls against orcs. +2 racial bonus on Appraise checks that are related to stone or metal items. +2 racial bonus on Craft checks that are related to stone or metal. [b]Automatic Languages[/b]: Dwarven and Native Language [U]Elves[/U] +2 Dexterity, -2 Constitution Medium size. Elven base speed is 30 feet. [b]Low-light Vision[/b]: Elves can see twice as far as a human in starlight, moonlight, torchlight, and similar conditions of poor illumination. They retain the ability to distinguish color and detail under these conditions. +2 racial bonus on Listen, Search, and Spot checks. An elf who merely passes within 5 feet of a secret or concealed door is entitled to a Search check to notice it as if she were actively looking for the door. [b]omatic Languages[/b]: Elven and Native Language. I'll work on the remaining races in a bit and post them when I get a chance. [/QUOTE]
