Default You'll never get me lucky charms! [Subrace]

Gnome Subrace: Leprechaun
- -2 Str, +2 Con, +4 Cha. Leprechauns are tough but weak like their gnomish cousins and also charming little devils.
- Humanoid (Gnome): Leprechauns are humanoids with the (gnome) subtype.
- Small: As a Small creature, a leprechaun gains a +1 size bonus to +1 size bonus on attack rolls, and a +4 size bonus on Hide checks, but he uses smaller weapons than humans use, and his lifting and carrying limits are three-quarters of those of a Medium character.
- A leprechauns base land speed is 30 feet.
- Low-Light Vision: A gnome can see twice as far as a human in starlight, moonlight, torchlight, and similar conditions of poor illumination. He retains the ability to distinguish color and detail under these conditions.
- +2 racial bonus on saving throws against illusions and charm effects.
- Add +1 to the Difficulty Class for all saving throws against illusion and enchantment spells cast by gnomes. This adjustment stacks with those from similar effects.
- +2 racial bonus on Listen checks.
- +2 racial bonus on all Perform checks
- Automatic Languages: Common and Gnome. Bonus Languages: Draconic, Dwarven, Elven, Giant, Goblin, Orc, and Sylvan.
- Spell-Like Abilities: at will - charm person, dancing lights, ghost sound, prestidigitation; 1/day - silent image, suggestion; 1/year - Wish (only usable on those who have found your pot o' gold)
- Favored Class: Bard
- Challenge Rating: 2
- Level Adjustment: +2

Leprechauns are usually chaotic. Leprechaun clerics have access to the Chaos, Luck, and Trickery domains.

I made this when my friend Kettle (an almost true to life leprechaun) mentioned them being very gnome-like in his opinion. So I made this, and he's going to make sure to play one.

No Alignment Either?

Also, just me, but I feel they should get a racial bonus when fighting against, Rabbits, Vampires, Tropical birds, tigers, flying insects, and Djinni.

lol. I had actually typed, "one of these things is not like the other, but is still a reference" but I deleted it.

For me there are two Leprechauns: Lucky charms (hence all the mascots) and The Leprechaun (as in "Garth it's The Leprechaun" "ahh!!")

when I think of the latter, the other film series that immediatly springs to mind is The Wishmaster, also about a creature that popular culture considers harmless that actually turns out fairly evil. Similar tone, similar production values, similar time periods of release and popularity. (if not clear, Wishmaster is about a Djinn)

Although, there should be Djinni-o's somewhere. That would be pretty cool.

Sorry about the Hijack Krimm. It's a cool race though.

I would classify it as a fey rather than a humanoid.

other than that, reduce STR and increase INT and DEX. Reduce the CHA modifier to +2.

anything "at will" is a bit much for a CR2 creature, but there aren't any bonus hit dice for being a monster, so it's up to you.

No +1000 touch AC and grapple checks vs small children?

seems pretty good. Mean sorcs, pallies, and bards. I'd keep the STR penalty though. They're still small little things.

Wasn't there supposed to be a Wishmaster vs. Leprechaun movie, a la Jason vs. Freddy? I've seen a trailer for it but it never really came about I guess...
