Fairy (Race)

[bcadren]

I am not sure if I'm joking or not.

Flavour: Fairies are the tiniest humanoids known to exist. Too small for almost everything, but with great magical ability.

Weirdness/Mutations

• Tiny Size (same as spiders) [+6] Size Factor.
  • All weapons you can use are 2H to you. Additionally you cannot use the following:
    • All normally 2H weapons.
    • Double Swords
    • Eveningstars
  • UC + Buckler is still possible.
  • Slots: Weapon/Shield, Hat, Cloak, Rings, Amulet.
• Fairy Guard - Any time you would take damage, you take exactly 1 damage. [Extreme damage shaving.]
  • You cannot have spirit shield; as this takes its place.
  • AC will have no effect for you (unless it completely nulls a hit).
• Frailty - Your HP is exactly 3 + XL. It is not affected by training fighting.
  • Healing (all sources) is divided by 10 before use. Vampiric weapons generally heal by 1. Ely with High Invo and Potions of Heal Wounds Heal 2-5.
• Slow Regen II - You don't regen when monsters in LoS.

I demand that they're not allowed to cast Iron Shot. (Lore does so much for me.)

Can they throw tomahawks, for reference?

I like the rest of it, save for both Invocations and Evocation being above 0. I'd like to see them have the same EXP penalty that Demigos have, if only because 3 Spellcasting/Summoning would make their game a little too leisurely.

Their casting aptitudes are so insanely high I imagine this would just degenerate into spamming Makh and spells.

Trust me, you're joking.

You know. As much as Duvessa seems to be for FLAT APTITUDES ON EVERYTHING; I have to say writing flat GREAT MAGIC apts made me realize something. 3! Summoning means something completely different than 3! Conj. "Spiky" weapon apts may actually be an issue; but all the different spellschools have different...power curves that makes the same apt in any two of them mean really different things. [Just a thought.]

is torment also 1 damage

[jeremygurr]

I like this idea. With a bit of work I think it could add some interesting variety to the game.
