[QUOTE="LordMelquiades, post: 2324339, member: 18650"] [b]Halfies[/b] On a similar vein, and since they've been mentioned a lot in this thread, here's my Eberron take on the halfling. These guys require way less adjusting. Again, italicised text is where I've made changes: · +2 Dexterity, –2 Strength. · Small: As a Small creature, a halfling gains a +1 size bonus to Armor Class, a +1 size bonus on attack rolls, and a +4 size bonus on Hide checks, but she uses smaller weapons than humans use, and her lifting and carrying limits are three-quarters of those of a Medium character. · Halfling base land speed is 20 feet. [I]· +2 racial bonus on Handle Animal, Hide, Move Silently and Ride checks.[/I] · +1 racial bonus on all saving throws. · +2 morale bonus on saving throws against fear: This bonus stacks with the halfling’s +1 bonus on saving throws in general. · +1 racial bonus on attack rolls with thrown weapons and slings. · Automatic Languages: Common and Halfling. Bonus Languages: Dwarven, Elven, Gnome, Goblin, and Orc. [I]· Favored Class: Ranger. A multiclass halfling’s rogue class does not count when determining whether she takes an experience point penalty for multiclassing.[/I] This emphasises their Mongol-like nomadic master riders slant, but retaining the skill bonuses for Hide and Move Silently keeps that whole stealthy, native American thing. Possibly Hide and MS could be swapped-out for, say, Balance and Tumble, to give them a more dextrous spin. Plus I changed favoured class - ranger seems more appropriate. [/QUOTE]
