[QUOTE="dave2008, post: 8181658, member: 83242"] But I don't want those (or at least not all of them). [B]Dwarves:[/B] I want dwarves to be small stout humans with not particular distinguish attributes. The have a culture preference for crafting, forging, etc. The are on average about the same strength as humans, perhaps a bit hardier, but I think that is better expressed with interesting features than a + to CON. Though I am not opposed to the inclusion. Maybe they have resistance to exhaustion, that is more interesting than a CON bump to me. [B]Elves:[/B] I want elves to be long-lived, unusually strong and graceful. I see mostly the same stats as human, but I could see higher Dex and Charisma. However, I think there differences would be better represent in unique features. Maybe the all get the magic initiate feat and ignoring difficult terrain among others. [B]Half-Orcs:[/B] I want half orcs to be basically humans, if I could I would make them weaker though. I can think of any ability bonuses I would give half-orcs. I would have to think more than I want to right now about what features to give them. Again, since I know they will not do what I want, I would rather they don't do it. [/QUOTE]
