Subraces



  • Available Subraces
    The following races/subraces are allowed. Any bonuses that vary from the standard race are adjusted upon first logging in to Narfell as long as your Subrace field matches what is found in the script.

    **Adjustments
    The Narfell Subrace System makes Hard adjustments to attributes when you first log in a subrace character. This means that on level-ups such characters will always receive the correct skill points and be able to pick the correct feats. It also means that they'll have the correct number of spells available.

    However, this is only applied upon first log in. In the character creation screen it is not in effect, with the following results:

    Skill Points
    Gold Dwarves, Wood and Wild Elves are required to invest four skill points in Craft Trap.
    Sun Elves may pick two "free" languages in lieu of their 4 missing skill points.

    Feats
    @0b5c270482=Father:

    Irrespective of intents or pettiness or policing issues, you need to be "13 intelligence worth of smarts" to know how to fight in the style known as expertise. A wood elf who puts 13 points into INT and then has it drop to 11 because of racial characteristics has only "11 intelligence worth of smarts".

    This applies to any feat with an attribute requirement; if you would not be able to select the feat after subrace changes are applied, then you are not allowed to select it at character creation.

    If your PC has feats which they don't fulfill the prerequisites for please contact a DM so you can work out a solution. A DM noticing the exploit may give a forced rebuild to boost the ability score or remove the feats as they think appropriate.

    Important

    Permission in each case will be required.
