[QUOTE="Nyaricus, post: 2921555, member: 35678"] Hi Meatboy, nice to see you around again :) I know how it feels to try to type up all that stuff again (it sucks) but I've been trying to get back what I lost. Thus far, I am too lacking in drive thanks to the crash killing 900 of my posts... Anwho: your race. Fluff is neat-o, but I find a few points not matching here... okay - no negative stat? Well, lets see what the rest gives us here... Okay, matches the fluff, and it kinda hurts them too - it's helping offset the +2 Dex Okay, this doesn't do much. Better spped and +2 Dex? Okay, I'll holy my judgements for the moment. Search isn't really a 'sensory' skill - it just describes taking time to find something. I might drop that, since it doesn't match the fluff and you're giving these guys alot with few negatives. >you should say craft or perform <sub>-skill, since there are quite a few different ones. Well, if you follow favoured class, another boon for the Exiles. --- Verdict: this race gives too much for too few real drawbacks. Solution: (a) give them one of the following, replacing the -2 diplomacy, -2 bluff: (i) -2 Cha or (ii) -2 to all Cha-based skills when dealing with non-Exiles and (b) drop either the +2 Craft or perform OR the +2 Search. then you'd be in the good, IMO. I'd personally go with -2 to all Cha-based skill checks when dealing with other races and drop the +2 Search. [/QUOTE]
