Half-Demons: +1 Mind, +1 to Subterfuge and Communication skills.

==================================

Half-Dragons:  Once per hour Half-Dragons can breathe fire. This is a missile attack which, if it hits, does 1d6 damage per character level.

==================================

High Elves: Once per hour High Elves can teleport up to 10 feet per character level.

Nice. I like the affinity idea, especially. Maybe you could expand it sothat different types of half-dragon have affinity with different spells types. A green half-dragon would be more inclined toward acid-based spells, for example.

If you're aiming for a 4e Dragonborn style, I suggest giving them +2 STR and a breath attack 3x per day for 1d6+STR bonus damage too.

When it comes to Eldarin, I much prefer your idea than 4e's "teleport once every 5 minutes" oh-so-broken Power :)

Thanks! Their 'affinity' is meant to be the breath attack (but scaled down so that they're roughly as powerful as the core Microlite20 races). I've edited it to make that more obvious.

I've edited this to give High Elves and Half-Demons something at first level. Comments on complexity and/or balance?

The only question that springs to mind is this.........

If someone generated a Half-Dragon Fighter (for example), when do they get the fire spells? At first level, or when they reach the same level they'd gain access to them as a Magi? Think that needs clarifying.

Hope that helps!

I think AoF is saying they get Flaming Sphere at 1st level and the others at the appropriate level. Although my personal preference is to use Burning Hands instead of Flaming Sphere and just have it come out of their mouths, instead of their hands.

Does the lack of comments mean it's OK?
