Aasimar

Aasimars are usually tall, good-looking, and generally pleasant.  Some have a minor physical trait suggesting their heritage, such as silver hair, golden eyes, or an unnaturally intense stare.

Most aasimars are decidedly good-aligned.  They fight against evil causes and attempt to sway others to do the right thing.  Occasionally they take on the vengeful, judgmental aspect of their celestial ancestor, but this is rare.  Combat

Aasimars usually like a fair, straightforward contest.  Against a particularly evil foe, however, they fight with utter conviction and to the death.

Skills: An aasimar has a +2 racial bonus on Spot and Listen checks.

Half Human

Human are a wide and varied race, there is no predicting the entire people; thus, there is no predicting with whom they shall fall in love or lust.  Humans are notorious among the other races for being overly sexual, and it is said that even the lowliest of any other race can find one among the humans whom they might “engage.”  This is of course not true, but humans more than any other race do breed with members not of their race.  While half humans are more common than any other half breeds, they are still incredibly rare numbering about 1 in 100,000.

 

This formula is for creating a half human.

 

A half human has no racial HD of any kind.  A half Human keeps the additional human Skill bonus and bonus feat at level one.  They keep any racial feat for the base creature which you qualify for if the base creature does not need to qualify for a feat you gain that feat as well however you do not gain third tier or higher feats of any kind.  You gain ½ the normal bonus to skills.

You lose if the creature has more than two legs divine the number of legs in half rounded down to a minimum of one pair.  If the creature has no legs but arms you keep your legs,  if creature has no arms or legs you do not gain the legs.  You always have arms with hands and thumbs.

 

Size and Type.  A human stays humanoid but gain the subtypes with the exception of chaotic, evil, good, and lawful which are lost, also if the creature is an outsider the human also gain native.  Size normally remains the same however the parent was colossal or fine you become large or small; closer you may at dm’s option you will move in the direction of that base creature one step if the base creature is diminutive or gargantuan.

 

Age:  to determine the life span of a half human you add the venerable mark for the two races add them together and divide by 2, for the max age you use which the base creature or the humans which ever is higher. 

Speed: The base speed for a half human on land is 30ft.  if the creature has a fly use that speed to a maximum of 90ft,  and you have the base creature’s maneuverability or average which ever is better.  If the creature has other movement speed for burrowing, swimming, etc reduce this by 10 ft to minimum of 30ft if the base creature’s is higher than 30 ft; if the base creature is less than 30ft use that exact speed.

Armor:  Any Armor bonus is reduced by ½ unless the bonus is based on an ability in which case it is based of the new score.

Special Abilities (spell like, supernatural, etc): You keep a special attacks however you cut the no.  of uses in by 1/3^rd half and round down, if you have infinite uses these are reduce to 1/hour.  DCs become 10+ ½ your HD+ cha or con mod as is appropriate.  The range and Damage for all traits are cut in half.

You keep all special attacks, special qualities, and extraordinary abilities. 

Spell resistance remains the same.

If the creature has energy immunity or weakness this remains the same.

Energy resistance and DR are divined in half and rounded down to the nearest multiple of 5.

Abilities and traits gained by HD are gained ¼ their normal speed. 

If the base creature has a bonus you gain ½ those bonuses to saves, damage, attack and defense rounded down

If the base creature has an immunity to a kind of save you gain instead a +4 to that save.

Ability Scores: You divide the bonus or penalty in half and round down

Both male and  female merfolk decorate themselves with shells, coral, and other underwater adornments. Adventurers who encounter merfolk are often the victims of pranks and mischief.
