Talk:Hidoran (5e Race)

Please give suggestions in the discussion box to make playing a Hidoran race character a smoother experience for the DM and the players.

Let's start at the top.

• Ability adjustments are 3.5-style rather than 5e-style. Unsure if this is deliberate.
• Use {{5e Darkvision}} to have the full text for this common trait.
• Inhuman. Weapon and armor useage is mainly a function of class. By overriding this you cause problems. For example, a hidoran fighter cannot use any fighter fighting styles.
• How are the claw and fang attacks used? Do you use an Action, or do they substitute for a normal attack? If the latter, it should say that they are melee weapon attacks (which means you also do not need to state "+Str Mod").
• Diet is not a racial trait. Put it in the description.
• Protean Healing. Unclear what this actually does. What is being recovered? Hit points or HD? If it's hit points, how is this calculated? (It reads like, if I have 4 HD left, I recover 8 hit points? Is this in addition to the hit points normally regained by spending Hit Dice during a short rest?)
• I'm not sure how much fun it's going to be micromanaging the weight of what meals are being eaten.
• Why do they know Draconic?
• If feral born are illiterate, does this mean they cannot become wizards? Marasmusine (talk) 11:11, 5 January 2017 (MST)

No reply from the OP, and they indicated that they've given up on it. Therefore I am rewriting it myself. Marasmusine (talk) 06:22, 1 February 2017 (MST)
