Half-Giants

Thu, 09 May 2019 02:12:19 +0000

I am working on the half-giants now.

I have shifted a lot of their abilities around (inc on CC Race Page).

I really want to make them size Large, like the half-giants from 2E, but for now I am sticking to Size Medium with 'Powerful Build'.

I could open up the 'Size Large' racial feat, but given these are not ceremonial giants that 'change' it would seem odd.

OR I just say they ARE large which means I would enforce the things in that feat:

Clumsy (minor) drawback means -2 Dex.
All weapons made for their size deal twice the listed dice as damage.

Would this be a massive (excuse the pun) advantage?

I reckon I would also have to take away Giant Toughness if giving them Size Large.

WHat are players' thoughts? Do we like the large giants of 2E or do we want to more mimic 4E's treatment of them as goliaths? (I do love the 2E large art :P)

Half-Elves

Okay - I have added half-elves to the Athas Major Races Page.

Remember, half-elves in Athas fit into the 'disliked by bother parentage groups' - hence the Wayward drawback.

They also get access to a couple of racial feats that standard half-elves would not :)

Have a look. Tell me what you think.

What other Dark Sun races should I look at detailing next? :)

I have completed the halfling write up, compiling info from all the sources to save the players searching up all the cultural and RP info.

I sure hope some players read these…

Elves

I have fully detailed elves now. This mainly means I have compiled info from other sources so players don't have to chase up info; it is all in one place and I think I have captured enough of the essence to go on.

I hope so and I sure hope players read this stuff.

Dwarves

I have completed a full write-up for dwarves. Please take a look Nicko and Blair.

Hopefully some RP ideas to add to the dwarf PC in your group.

Also check the rules, especially the Drawbacks. Illiterate has been added. I am not sure why that was not there, but it is a big thing for Athasian dwarves. All dwarves must choose a focus too.

(If you wish to discuss your dwarf PC we will do that in the campaign forums - this is for dwarves in general).
