[Morph Bark]

So as I am now making races for my campaign setting (for which I already got the angels up), which are made in the same way mechanically as Gnorman's E6 races, I asked him if I could borrow some of his to revamp them to fit my non-E6, 3.P-y purposes. He said yes.

I went back to his old Race Compendium because the pictures were like dayyyum spiffy, son.

Behold, GLORIOSITY. (Not really.)

The Dwarf

Spoiler

• +2 Strength, -2 Charisma - dwarves are hardy but gruff and belligerent
• Small size
• 20' movement. However, dwarves can move at this speed even when wearing medium or heavy armor or when carrying a medium or heavy load (unlike other creatures, whose speed is reduced in such situations)
• Humanoid (Dwarf) type.
• Darkvision 60'.
• Bloodline: All dwarves select a bloodline from the list below, which offer them different bonuses and abilities. This choice is permanent.
• Stability: Dwarves gain a +8 bonus on ability checks made to resist being bull rushed or tripped when standing on the ground (but not when climbing, flying, riding, or otherwise not standing firmly on the ground). This stacks with their Powerful Build.
• Weapon Familiarity: Dwarves treat any weapon with "dwarven" or "dwarf" in the name as martial weapons, rather than exotic weapons. Dwarves are also always proficient with picks and warhammers.
• Packing the Power: As long as a dwarf doesn't move more than 5 ft in a turn and remains in contact with the ground (but not when climbing, flying, riding, or otherwise not standing firmly on the ground), they gain a +1 bonus to Strength checks and Strength-based skill checks that increases by 1 every round, to a maximum of half their HD (minimum 1). Furthermore, for each +1 bonus they acquire through this ability, their effective Strength for purposes of carrying capacity increases by 2, until they move more than 5 ft in one turn or lose contact with the ground.

Bloodlines

Equrun Dwarf

• Equrun dwarves' base land speed is 30', and they may move over difficult terrain without having their movement hampered. While mounted, their mounts may also move over difficult terrain without having their movement hampered.

• Mountain dwarves receive a +4 dodge bonus to AC when fighting against creatures of the dragon type.

City Dwarf
• +2 Intelligence
• A city dwarf gains the Stonecunning ability. This ability grants the city dwarf a +2 racial bonus on Search checks to notice unusual stonework, such as sliding walls, stonework traps, new construction (even when built to match the old), unsafe stone surfaces, shaky stone ceilings, and the like. Something that isn’t stone but that is disguised as stone also counts as unusual stonework. A city dwarf who merely comes within 10 feet of unusual stonework can make a Search check as if he were actively searching, and a city dwarf can use the Search skill to find stonework traps as a rogue can. A city dwarf can also intuit depth, sensing his approximate depth underground as naturally as a human can sense which way is up.

The Jotun

Spoiler

• +2 Strength, -2 Wisdom - All jotun are descended from giants and possess a fraction of their strength, but often act before they think and rarely put much value in formal education or logical ability.
• Medium size
• 30' movement.
• Humanoid type.
• Bloodline: All jotun select a bloodline from the list below, which offer them different bonuses and abilities. This choice is permanent.
• Powerful Build: The physical stature of jotun lets them function in many ways as if they were one size category larger. Whenever a jotun is subject to a size modifier or special size modifier for an opposed check, the jotun is treated as one size larger if doing so is advantageous to him. A jotun is also considered to be one size larger when determining whether a creature’s special attacks based on size can affect him. A jotun can use weapons designed for a creature one size larger without penalty. However, his space and reach remain those of a creature of his actual size. The benefits of this racial trait stack with the effects of powers, abilities, and spells that change the subject’s size category.
• +2 racial bonus to Athletics and Knowledge (forbidden lore) checks. Jotun can also make Knowledge (forbidden lore) checks untrained.
• Automatic Languages: Jotun and either Roé-Allon or Tsumian. Bonus Starting Languages: Dwarven, Gamilak, Komul, Roé-Allon, Stamarian, Tsumian.
