    Default [4e] EPG / PHB3 style Racial Bonuses

    In the Eberron Players Guide and Players Handbook 3, there are quite a few races that have bonuses in the style: +2 to Stat A or B, +2 to Stat C. I personally think all races should have this style of ability, and strive to do so below.

    To read: Race, +2 to A or B; +2 C.
    {table=head]Race|A|B|C
    Bladeling|Dex|Str|Wis
    Bugbear|Dex|Con|Str
    Deva|Wis|Cha|Int
    Dragonborn|Cha|Int|Str
    Duergar|Wis|Cha|Con
    Drow|Dex|Wis|Cha
    Dwarf|Wis|Str|Con
    Eladrin|Int|Cha|Dex
    Elf|Wis|Str|Dex
    Gensai|Str|Dex|Int
    Githyanki|Int|Wis|Con
    Gnoll|Con|Str|Dex
    Gnome|Int|Dex|Cha
    Goblin|Cha|Con|Dex
    Goliath|Str|Wis|Con
    Half-Elf|Con|Dex|Cha
    Half-Orc|Dex|Wis|Str
    Halfling|Cha|Str|Dex
    Hobgoblin|Cha|Int|Con
    Human|*|*|*
    Kalashtar|Wis|Int|Cha
    Kenku|Dex|Int|Cha
    Kobold|Con|Cha|Dex
    Longtooth Shifter|Str|Con|Wis
    Orc|Con|Wis|Str
    Razorclaw Shifter|Dex|Int|Wis
    Revenant|Dex|Int|Con
    Shadar-Kai|Int|Con|Dex
    Tiefling|Cha|Con|Int
    Warforged|Str|Int|Con
    Bullywug|Not a|race|
    Changeling|See|EPG|
    Githzerai|See|PHB3|
    Minotaur|See|PHB3|
    Shardmind|See|PHB3|
    Wilden|See|PHB3|
    [/table]
    Human: Humans choose from one of the following three ability score pairs:
    1) +2 Dex, +2 Int
    2) +2 Str, +2 Con
    3) +2 Wis, +2 Cha
    ----
    Thoughts, comments, better ideas, less arbitrary stat choices?

    Why the bullywug? Why?
    Other than that, pretty cool. I actually always wanted a human wizard who was also rather agile, and this gives me quite a bonus. Sweet!

    Eladrin should get Cha, not Elves.

    Cha/Int, Dex -- Eladren
    Wis/Str, Dex -- Elves

    Changed. As I said, a lot of it was arbitrary.

    Bullywug is a race, don't leave them out!

    That they are useless as a race, as is. More then most monster races. They'd need a serious remake before I think of giving them anything.

    But that would be fixing the problem instead of complaining. Obviously I cannot do that.

    (More Seriously: Too lazy)

    Then I might remake them... possibly... if I can muster enough energy. They're a good idea at the very least. :)

    Perhaps you could do it then? If you really want it?
