Message: <blockquote data-quote="Loonook" data-source="post: 5904032" data-attributes="member: 1861">Yes, but Nagaji have +2 Strong Physical, +2 Weak Mental, -2 Strong Mental... And the Wayung have +2 Strong Physical, +2 Strong Mental, -2 Strong Mental.  The Wayang gain Gnome-like spell abilities with shadow magic, and the Nagaji gain Natural Armor +1, which is again quite a nice ability, but is offset by a couple of weak further enhancements (situational save bonuses, a racial bonus to a useful skill and a focused bonus to a middling skill).  You provide bonuses to 3 skills at a low rank and a mighty bonus to an extremely useful skill which personally I cannot recall being granted by any other race that doesn't have an LA or monster HD.The ARG has yet to be released and the numbers in the playtest version may vary once the book is actually released in the update.  As I stated your race makes the race useful for thug, UMD (+1 overall gain racial), and skillmonkey/combat Rogues, pretty much any flavor of Magus, Wizards,  and any Intelligence based group that doesn't need to worry too much about Charisma based skills.The benefits of Intelligence vs. Wisdom vs. Charisma are way too large to ignore, as Charisma affects a handful of skills and a very small amount of options vs. Intelligence affecting all skills purchased and Wisdom affecting multiple useful skills AND Will. They are plant themed people but there is no reason for the skin pigmentation.  Mutations in eye color are just that... Very occasional sprouting up of colors, similar to polydactyly due to these traits being repressed and randomly generated.  If three populations breed true to themselves besides these occasional mutations it means that the individuals who 'mutate' in one clan will be carrying their genetic material to another clan.  That means that their dominant genes will breed into another set of seemingly dominant traits, diluting the overall group.  I don't feel like running your Punnetts for you through multiple alleles... Run a basic hybrid cross analysis with randomization for the offspring of two of your Purple "pures" and an expressed "purple" Blue individual.  Factor in your chances of expression, decide which color is Dominant and which are Recessive... The populations wouldn't hold.  A 'rarity' is only rare in a small group.  12% of the overall population has green-or-hazel eyes.  They're coming from similar mutations... But there are so many other mutations and malformations of the eye to work around that eye color, while useful as a trait, doesn't fit our question very well.But again, your race has an extremely focused genetic variation that breeds strong to true even among their own?  It doesn't make genetic sense... There are outlying cases of extreme evolutionary advancement in species that live extremely short lives in comparison to humans, but in a long-living group?  Tortoises don't change much even in adaptation.Slainte,-Loonook.</blockquote>
