My Races
Even with templates, sometimes I just can't find a race that covers what I need. Templates can be too strong, or they just don't stack right with another race to create what I'm looking for.

Most of these are races based off Drow, since both campaigns I've done the most work on are Drow-based.

Fey'ri (drow) [ECL: +3]
[Top]
I wanted some fiendish drow and started with the fiendish elf race, Fey'ri, from Monsters of Faerun.

The following changes apply to the Fey'ri race:
Demonic Abilities: Pick three from the list, instead of four.

Elven Traits: Replace with Drow Traits listed below.

Drow Traits:
* immunity to sleep spells and effects
* +2 racial bonus on Will saves against spells/spell-like abilities
* darkvision 120ft
* Light Blindness
* Spell resistance 11 + character level
* Spell-like abilities: darkness, faeric fire, levitate, all 1/day as a sorcerer of the character's character level

Abilities: As Fey'ri, but +2 CHA.

Alignment: Usually Evil.

Anything not addressed above remains unchanged.
Dragonblood [ECL: +2]
[Top]
This race is to Half-Dragon what tiefling is to Half-Fiend and is entirely my own creation.

Abilities: +2 STR, +2 INT, +2 CHA.

Size: Medium

Speed: 30ft; if the dragon the bloodline is based from is winged, then the character has wings and flies at half a wyrmling of the bloodline's speed or 60ft, whichever is greater, and has a wyrmling's maneuverability.

Special Qualities:
* Immune: sleep and paralysis
* Resistance 10 to 2 elements (based on dragon bloodline type)
* lowlight vision and darkvision 60'
* can take dragon feats
* +1 natural AC from fine scales

Spell-like Abilities: polymorph self at will, but limited to a humanoid form of the same basic height and weight. Can be used to hide wings, claws, and scales.

Attacks: Gains natrual claw attack that deals 1d4 damage.

[Side note: This can double as a template if speed/attack damage/size is adjusted to take a different "zero-cost" race into account.]
Dragon-Drow [ECL: +3]
[Top]
Much like the Dragonblood race/template detailed above, only this uses a drow as the other 'parent' race, thus I thought it needed a bit more fleshing out.

Abilities: +2 STR, -2 CON, +2 INT, +4 CHA.

Size: Medium

Speed: 30ft; if the dragon the bloodline is based from is winged, then the character has wings and flies at half a wyrmling of the bloodline's speed or 60ft, whichever is greater, and has a wyrmling's maneuverability.

Special Qualities:
* Immune: sleep and paralysis
* Resistance 10 to 1 element (based on dragon bloodline type)
* lowlight vision and darkvision 120'
* can take dragon feats
* +1 natural AC from fine scales
* +2 will save vs spells and spell-like abilities
* +2 racial bonus to Listen, Search, and Spot
* Light Blindness
* Spell Resistance 11 + character level

Spell-like Abilities:
* polymorph self at will, but limited to a humanoid form of the same basic height and weight. Can be used to hide wings, claws, and scales.
* 1/day - darkness, faerie fire, levitation, and one additional based on dragon bloodline.

Attacks: Gains natrual claw attack that deals 1d4 damage.
