The new Pathfinder Elves are a great way to represent Gold and Silver Elves in FR, but is definately lacking as a representation of Copper and Green Elves. So in an effort to not leave those two branches of the race out to dry I created this new conversion, let me know what you all think.
Pathfinder Sylvan Elves
Racial Traits:
+2 Dexterity, +2 Wisdom, -2 Intelligence
Medium size
Normal Speed: 30 feet
Low-Light Vision
Elven Immunities: Sylvan Elves are immune to magic sleep effects and get a +2 racial bonus against enchantment spells and effects.
Elven Naturalist: Sylvan Elves gain the wild empathy ability and can attempt to improve the initial attitude of an animal. A Sylvan Elf rolls a 1d20 and adds his Charisma bonus to determine the wild empathy check result. A Sylvan Elf who gains this ability from another source, such as levels in Druid or Ranger, gain a +2 racial bonus on wild empathy checks. Sylvan Elves also receive a +2 racial bonus on all Survival checks made to find or follow tracks.
Keen Senses: Sylvan Elves recieve a +2 racial bonus on all Perception skill checks.
Weapon Familiarity: Sylvan Elves are proficient with Longbows, Longswords, Scimitars, and Shortbows, including composite versions, and treat any weapon with "elven" in the name as a martial weapon.
Languages: Sylvan Elves begin play speaking Common, Elven, and Sylvan
I went with an Intelligence penalty instead of Constitution because both Wood and Wild Elves have Intelligence penalties in 3E and it represents the fact that they are hardier than their Moon/Sun Elven brethren. The other big change comes in trading the Elven Magic ability for Elven Naturalist, I came up with this after rereading their entries from earlier editions. In 2E, wood elves got a limited version of the Rangers animal empathy ability, hence what I have done here. The only other small change is swapping Rapier for Scimitar for automatic weapon proficiency, as it seems more fitting. |
