I decided to dust 'em off, tweak 'em a bit, and let you guys see them. Let me know what you think.[h=1]Forest Dwarves[/h]    Forest Dwarves are dwarves that mainly live in forests near rocky outcroppings and caves, mainly to use the wood to make homes above ground so they don’t waist “valuable defense and mining space,” though usually keep their homes at least mostly dug into the ground, and also don’t come together to form cities, just small mining colonies. They’re not only peculiar dwarves in terms of housing, they also have different builds than normal dwarves, being a bit taller and having a leaner and more flexible build. Forest Dwarves tend to have tan skin and hair colors ranging across all the different colors of bark. Finally, some civilizations of Forest Dwarves tend to be a bit nomadic, settling down to mine out a vein of resources they find and then moving on to another.    Ability Score Increase. Your Dexterity increases by 1.    Thick Skinned. You’re AC increases by 1.[h=1]War Gnomes[/h]    War Gnomes are warrior gnomes that spend their adult lives finding battles to fight, or, in some cases, causing them. War Gnomes are generally neutral, but still can favor one side over another, one could fight for fun and to protect those who can’t protect themselves, or one could fight for fun and personal gain. War Gnomes have slightly more muscular builds and slightly faster reflexes, but, the one thing War Gnomes are especially good at when they’re not headed off to war, is their knowledge of them. A War Gnome that becomes a scholar will generally specialize in war history or great battles.    Ability Score Increase. Your Strength increases by 1    Scholar of Battle. You have advantage on History checks related to weapons, war machines, wars, armies, etc.    Skilled Combatant. You’re proficient in 1 martial weapon of your choice.[h=1]Fey Gnomes[/h]    Fey Gnomes came from the Feywild. Generally, they are regarded as a closer cousin to Forest Gnomes, but no one is sure, not even the Fey Gnomes themselves! These gnomes tend to be a bit nomadic, often on the run because people don’t appreciate pranks the way they do. These gnomes have vibrant colored hair and eyes, resembling fey.    Ability Score Increase. Your Wisdom Score increases by 1.    Fey Ancestry. You have advantage on saving throws against being charmed, and magic cannot put you to sleep.    Extra Language. You can speak, read, and write Sylvan.[h=1]Winter Elves[/h]    Winter elves are a subrace of elf that secluded to the mountains and were lost to not very well known myth and legend. They were thought to be a tribal like society, known for being exceptional hunters and guides through mountainous and artic areas, as well as being known for having a large population of druids. Occasionally, though, some great yet cunning and twisted leaders and heroes, such as Laozk, a brilliant yet dark warrior, emerge and lead the winter elves down dark paths. Although, some Winter Elves emerge from hiding out of curiosity of the outside world, they are almost always lost, killed, eaten, or all out of unpreparedness before they meet very many people and verify their species existence.        Ability Score Increase. Your Constitution score increases by 1.        Tribal Weapon Training. You’re proficient in the longbow, shortbow, spear, and club.        Arctic Habitat. You have resistance to cold damage.        Tribal Dwellers. You’re proficient in Wis (Survival) checks.        Appearance. Winter Elves are the size of normal elves, though weigh about 20 lbs. lighter, and have extremely pale skin, sometimes with a slight icy blue tinge, with hair usually snow white.        Alignment. Winter Elves are very territorial and concerned about survival, bending them toward Neutral.[h=1]Shadow Draconic Ancestry[/h]    As with dragons, exposure at birth, or for a number of years to the plane known as Shadowfell, can turn a dragonborn into a Shadow Dragon. Shadow Dragonborn end up having similar goals to Shadow Dragons, which are almost always evil. Though Shadow Dragonborn are rarely seen outside of Shadowfell, and even then they’re rare, some find they’re way into the material plane and either are very blunt and go on destructive rampages in the name of shadow, or try to pass of as other Dragonborn, usually Black Dragonborn, to secretly further their goals. One thing they cannot hide, though, is their breath weapon, which is simply a shadowy form of one of the other breath weapons.    Damage Resistance. You have resistance to Necrotic damage.    Breath Weapon. Your breath weapon does Necrotic damage and you may choose which blast radius it takes, that is, 15ft cone or 5x30ft line.    Appearance. Shadow Dragonborn have shadowy black skin or scales with a slight chromatic or metallic shine. Their eyes are either red, purple, or yellow.[h=1]Smartbrain Halflings[/h]    Smartbrain Halflings, like all Halflings, are simple folk, and are actually very rare to find as an adventurer, though it is not impossible. Smartbrains tend to stick around libraries or their own homes, reading, studying, or doing anything else that might increase their intellect. Unfortunately, like the Ghostwise Halflings, Smartbrains have withdrawn from the wider world, though no one knows exactly why. Smartbrains have formed small villages and vast libraries of books that their Lightfoot and Strongheart cousins have bought or otherwise acquired. Smartbrains are not picky about where they settle, as long as it’s safe, spacious, and hidden, it’s the perfect place for Smartbrains to build a village.    Ability Score Increase. Your Int. increases by 1.    Scholarly Study. You’re proficient in 2 Int. skills of your choice.</blockquote>
