[QUOTE="Drowbane, post: 2883216, member: 23396"] My homebrew is a blend of other settings that have come before, inspiration from novels as well as videogames, and a bit or my own (admitedly limited) creativity. All of my races have base stats (as normal PHB-style races) as well a one or two (or 14 for humans) Racial Class levels. Dwer: Dwer'marc: Warforged. No racial classes made... yet. Elf: My elves all have at least one level in one of the following Racial Classes. All elves are Fey-type. *Av'el'dorei: Ye old generic Elf. With wings. And unrivaled mastery of Arcane magic. *Kal'dorei: The Elves of Deep Shadow. Elves tainted by the Darkness that Waits, blessed (or cursed?) with Shadow-powers... (not too unlike those given form the Shade template) *Ly'thar'dorei: Elven Shifters. Hin: Khajiit: Based on the Suthay Khajiit of Morrowind fame. Powerful tiger-men known for thier cunning and ruthless efficiency in battle. On rare occasion a power Khajiit is born that is possessed of great Evil, wicked power, and the deformity of "reversed hands". Man: Humans, the underdogs of the Seven Ages. It is worth noting that during the 4th Age (default setting of Homebrew, there are Seven Ages in total) that the Empires of Man are ruled by the God-Kings. Human characters may manifest abilities in relation to a specific God-King... or the generic abilities of a "normal" Paragon Human. Either way, humans with Racial levels are rare among the NPCs. There are 13 God-Kings in total. Nothrog: Said to be descended from Men. The Nothrog Horde is quite possibly the greatest threat to the combined might of Men during the 4th Age. (Mechanically, picture Orcs who are living Ghouls, who create undead ghouls from those they feast upon. :D ~ Nothrog only show up as monsters or in evil parties. There is no "Drizt-Do'Nothrog) Other Racial Levels~ Forsaken: Undead PCs. Jotunbrud: 1/2 Ogres and other Giantkin. Planetouched: This one hurt my head, still not 100% finished. Replaces tieflings, aasimar, 1/2 celestial, and 1/2 fiends. Weretouched: Eberron Shifters as a 3-level Racial Class that can be taken by most of the other base races. The Racial class is modular enough to account for each of the Shifter types. (post underconstruction... my laptop recently fried... damn PoS, anyways, lost alot of notes.) [/QUOTE]
