Talk:Nymph (5e Race)

Sinsation, can you please explain why you are continuing to undo my edits to this page? Before I edited it, the race was broken - as in, it didn't work. Your version of Blinding Beauty seems like a passive ability, which is overpowered for something that inflicts such a debilitating effect as blindness. My version of it requires an action, making a nymph give up other options on her turn to use that ability. You also seem to want Trance - while giving the nymph Trance wouldn't be unbalancing, to me Trance feels associated more with elves than fey as a whole, since the other "fey-like" race we got for 5e, the firbolg, doesn't have it, and to my knowledge fey didn't have Trance like the elf did in previous editions. I also don't want them to be able to use a shield for their innate AC because nymphs will usually pick a Cha-based class. I'd rather they didn't get a boost to both Dex and Wis, though if you want a dex boost that badly we could give a nymph PC a choice between a wis boost or a dex boost. — Geodude671 (talk | contribs | email)‎ . . 11:25, 15 October 2017 (MDT)
