I have a D&D character builder downloaded on my comp, has a bunch of cool things in it

[Mik_Hael]

I'm thinking maybe as a reace slightly lower intelligence, high dex and strength along with high survival skills in forests, mountain, and plain environments.

[Marvelous Miscreant]

Sounds like something I'd be interested in.

[Philote]

I just got the 4.0 character builder from piratebay

They have D&D books you can get there as well.

[Marvelous Miscreant]

Sweet!

[Zaleramancer]

I made Shadow people.

On the last page.

[Philote]

Could you do Goliath next Zale, I'm considering it for my clans race.

[Zaleramancer]

I'm almost done with Half-Demon. Then I do Goliath.

[Zaleramancer]

Half-Demons
(Human/Demon)

The unusual offspring of demons and humans. While Half-Demons tend to evil, not all are. However, even non-evil Half-Demons are usually selfish and rather self-indulgent. Half-Demons usually appear to be superficially human, however, careful observation will reveal demonic traits like small horns, fang-like teeth, fingernails like talons, vestigial wings, bright and strangely colored eyes and the occasional tail.

*Half-Demons can smell magic. While this usually requires the Half-Demon to be actively searching, strong magical emanations can be detected passively.
*Half-Demons have some of their demon parent's resilience. They have a higher natural recovery ability than normal. Small wounds (Minor cuts, scrapes and abrasions) heal withing minutes, while more severe wounds (Deeper cuts, strained muscles) heal over the course of a few hours. Very severe wounds (Stabbed in the stomach, broken bones) heal over the next few days.
*Half-Demons are resistant to one type of elemental damage chosen at character creation. (Fire, Cold, Acid, Electricity, Darkness.)

*Half-Demons loose their healing ability and elemental resistance upon entering holy ground. They are instantly aware of this fact.
*Half-Demons take double damage from holy weapons, spells or attacks.
*Half-Demons can not benefit from beneficial spells from a divine source.

Thank you

[Mik_Hael]

If they hide their other demonic traits could they pass off as a half elf if they had pointed ears?

[Zaleramancer]

Yes, I suppose. It would be easier to pass off as a human, but they could manage.

[Tsubasa & Wen Tien]

The races you've created so far are nice, but I'm going to stick with Olivia Descartes being human unless I see something better come up.

 What about a Fear?

Like the Fears. Skin white as porcelain, with no body hair, varying absence of facial features and waterproof skin. They come in numerous different flavors.

Dreads: Lithe Fears with faces like theater masks. Stuck always in one expression. Happy...sad...angry, whatever. Their limbs are malleable capable of forming whips, blades, etc, like Clayface from Batman.

Frights: Skinny, borderline frail Fears with wicked agility and flexibility. They have eyes and a nose, but no mouth. Oh, yes, and they are equally fast upright and on all fours. Enough to qualify as a ninja.

Horrors: The generic male Fear. Faceless, with pearly-white skin. Digits, facial features and genitals look like a blank mannequin. Male features of various shapes and sizes. Fingers form into claws.

Phobias: Burly, muscular Fears that have black piercing eyes. Their fingers can turn into claws, but they have a second set of claws that protract like Wolverine.

Terrors: The generic female Fear. Faceless, with pearly-white skin. Digits, facial features and genitals look like a blank mannequin. Female features of various shapes and sizes. Fingers form into claws.

And I'm thinking of doing Alarms as well. With no facial features but a mouth, maybe, capable of sonic screaming/yelling.

[Mik_Hael]

I'm going to revamp the character.

[Zaleramancer]

That would be difficult to create.

I'm considering making a Summoner type class. The main mechanics of it would involve you getting a certain number of points. Every time you summon something, you invest a number of these points in the summon to select certain abilities and bodyshapes. Whenever it gets dismissed, you regain said points.

It would allow you to make nearly anything, without me having to scramble to make a million summonable things.

Anyone like the idea?

[Philote]

So are most of the skills going to be either ones to gain points or ones to empower what you have summoned? With a few every couple levels to expand the type of things you can summon.

[The Junkyard Cat]

Hey all together what classes are there so far thinking of making one.

[Mik_Hael]

the ones I made but need to remake are

Jester/minstrel of chaos

Monsterking

Son wukong incarnate

Fire mage

and wild man.
