Species Idea
I thought it would be cool to have a race named like Djinn... Efreet... or Fire Elemental... or something? Here's my idea:
- Extremely resistant/Immune to fire damage.
- Vulnerable to cold.
- Can walk through fire like nothing, and through lava like it's shallow water.
- Shallow water damages them like lava would to another species.
- Their unarmed combat is fire branded.
- They'd have high fire magic and conjurations aptitudes.
- Not able to use scrolls.
- Not able use equipment that isn't branded/randart. ("The item melts to liquid in your hands/as you place it on your body" or something?)
How do you like it? I'm not giving specifics because I feel like if you guys think it's a good idea, there are pro's that would be able to flush out the specifics better then I could.
(UPDATE: I know I said I wouldn't flush the species out, and doing this whole 'balancing thing" is not exactly my forte, but here is the basic idea for what I was going for)
Str 3, Int 11, Dex 7
- Get an Intelligence or Dexterity (equal chance) increase every 3 levels starting at level 3.
6 magic resistance per level.
HP-1, MP+3, Exp 130,
Arm 0, Ddg+1, Sth -1, Stb -1, Shd -2, T&D 0, Inv 0, Evo 0,
Fgt +2, SBl 0, LBl 0, M&F-1, Axs-1, Pla 0, Stv 0, UC -2, Thr 0, Slg-1, Bws-1, Crb-1,
Spc-2, Coj+1, Hex-2, Cha-3, Sum-2, Nec -3, Trl-2, Trm-3, Fir+4, Ice-4, Air+1, Ear-2, Poi-3
Note: I actually got this idea after watching Adventure Time, and seeing the character Flame Princess, lol. I didn't model every decision around that, but that was the original concept.
