Question: Does the Tiefling race cover their different kinds? Can I do a Mephistopheles Tiefling?

 

[Necron]

sharkfolk (5e race) from the DnDwiki

 

[Lodur]

I used "Infernal Constitution" feat for tiefling race from official WotC game supplement: https://media.wizards.com/2017/dnd/downloads/RJSJC2017_04UASkillFeats_24v10.pdf
By the way, they have another one for classes an professions, rather then races: https://media.wizards.com/2016/downloads/DND/UA-Feats-V1.pdf

Your mind is going to be blown, be prepared!

"Kin-ayu"
Race of Martial warriors, follow the Dawae.
What is Dawae? You ask.
It is Dawae, nothing more nothing less.

Powers: Kin-Ayu believe their body is the strongest defense, so they can't wear armor other than those covering 18+ parts.

Every time they fight the battle, they get +4 in 1 random stat. STR, Con, or Dex. (They are going to roll for it)

Racial buff: They have a strong body, able to withstand the slash or magic to a certain degree, they also are extremely aware of the surroundings(super sense), But they all seem to tend to get lost on their way, but they eventually reach the destination(this can be stopped if a teammate ties a rope around the waist of himself/herself to Kin-Ayu.)

They focus on training with weapons of every kind, but their fav is two: A dragon bow, or a Great sword which they toss around like a toy.

They usually stand taller than most humans, with two little horns sprouting from the forehead.

 

[Prince_Azmiran_Myrian]

Человек. Изобретатель. Архетип изобретателя и кукольника. Создает различные предметы и марионеток (может прятаться за спиной для битвы. Слаб физически, но обладает высоким интеллектом и мудростью (может добавлять ману марионетке или усиливать ее ? ). Шанс создания предмета/марионетки зависит от материалов, денег и мастерства навыков.
Возможно, в будущем он сможет выучить руны, чтобы усилить свою марионетку или артефакты.
Если создание предмета не удалось, то возвращается 25%-50% всех материалов.
ПС
если он еще не сломан, вы можете повысить ловкость рук и связанные с этим действия.

[EldritchCoomer]

Human. Inventor. Archetype of the inventor and puppeteer. Creates various items and puppets (can hide behind for battle. Weak physically, but has high intelligence and wisdom (can add mana to a puppet or strengthen it). The chance of creating an item ? /puppet depends on materials, money and skill mastery.
Perhaps in the future he will be able to learn runes to strengthen his puppet or artifacts.
If the creation of an item fails, then 25%-50% of all materials are returned.
PS
if it's not already broken, you can improve manual dexterity and related activities.

I don't know how the chapter creator is because this is my first time.

Rule that I follow in creating new custom races/species or balancing old ones.

(Ability bonus), <skill bonus> [innate trait]

You can create your custom race using that.

It is all about rearranging bonuses.

You start with _ _ _ _ _ _ (6 slots)

For humans it's +1,+1,+1,+1,+1,+1



To create +2 somewhere we have to remove two (+1) ones from an entire array.

Example: +1, _, +2, _, +1, +1

Another example +2, _, _, +2, _, _



To create a +3 bonus somewhere we have to remove 4 ( +1 )

Example: _,_, +3, _, _ +1



Now for race-based skill bonuses.

Human +1,+1,+1,+1,+1,+1

If I remove (+1) without adding ability points. It will give me <+3> skill points.



So I can create a race like _, _, +1, +1, +1, +1 with two skills having <+3> or one skill with <+5>

What if I invest all ability (+1)s into skill bonuses? I will have the following options
<+3> in 6 skills
<+5> in 3 skills
<+7> in a skill and <+5> in an another


If I remove two +1 and add nothing in ability or skill but add a unique [innate trait]

Like [Water_advantage]: this race always rolls with an advantage in the water.

Like [Self_Regeneration: this race heals one unit per two turns in every battle.

Etc.

Alternatively, I may create a negative innate trait to get two (+1)s, or 2<+3>s or a <+5>
Like
[Constant_Decaying]: this race takes damage of one hp for every failed check, whether in combat or not. Faints for a day when hp reaches zero.

In this way, every new species is evolved from a base human.

That would be a class(job) not a race.

I will do some wiki research on this. Sounds like good potential race.

Try looking for the name 'Lamia Noble' instead. Naga in DnD are giant snakes with human heads, while Lamia are predatory centaur-type creatures.

Naga:

The traits are actually fairly balanced though. I approve.
