I really like this one *thumbs up

If you made it a winged half-elf then I reckon it's spot on. There are too many elves as is we need more half-elves and gnomes!

OMG! I'd take that first one...wow, the 2nd one with -4 con is nasty, but the ecl on #1 would have to be 3 or 4 even, the 2nd could be ecl1 or 2.

Also, you could add a species ability of teleport 1x(certain amt. of time) or 3x per rest to simulate the ability to 'fly'... or possibly a temporary, stackable bioware haste?

I would really love to see a bard preferred class ELF (not half elf) with a cha bonus, I have 2 builds that would be all over that at least...

We've thought about doing teleport abilities, but its just too easy to exploit or get stuck.

Continuing on the subject, just because I think they are neat:

Claustrophobia - suffer a -4 will save penalty whenever they go into underground areas, penalty continues until such a time as they return to open air.

Clipped Wings - suffer a -2 ac penalty whenever they are wearing a cloak or are over weight. (hello Negative energy burst attacks)

Eagle Eye: +4 Spot/+4 Search

Frail, hollow bones for flight +4 Dex/-4 Con ... high elven beauty and lyrical speech +2 Charisma

One PW server had both a jump and a teleport (fly) ability. The jump would only allow the charatcer to get to places that they normally could walk to. And, it was targetable only from what you could see on your screen. The theory being you could "jump" up hills to avoid ramps, or jump over traps or water.

The teleport (or fly) was similar, but would allow you to go anywhere you could target. So, an island in the middle of water could be targeted, or the area behind a group of trees or beyond a wall. But, it had to be the type of tile you could normally walk on. And once again, it was same screen targeting only.

In both cases, the "X" curosr would indicate no-go, and a normal pointer meant a good target after activating the item.

I think the graphic type was the same as the dragons taking off (straight up).

Oooo...me likey!

Make it half-elf! Half-elves need love!

[Shamed Monkey]

I laugh at Half Elves and people who think they need boosts, when Half Elves just suck. >_>

Every other race has benefits. Why the hell would you be a Half Elf when you could be something else?

[Blystos Re]

Um...because...?
They're not human and can cross-class without xp penalty, they're immune to sleep and get a +1 to spot and listen? Hardiness vs. enchantments?

...and...nope, that's it. Let's face it...even Dwarves are cooler than Half-Elves.

[Shamed Monkey]

As a player of RK, and someone who is awesome in general, I find that Highly offensive.

[frogofpeace]

I agree with the Monkey - halvelves are WAY cooler than dwarves ...

thats exactly why half-elves need good subraces.
