Racial Feats

This includes the Racial Feats on Page 73 of the XGE, modified as follows:

1.   Dragon Fear/ Dragon Hide

Dragon Fear and Dragon Hide are Racial Feats for Halflings, adapted for their particular antecedent.

2.   Wood Elf Magic/Elf Magic

Wood Elf Magic is only for Wylde Elves. The others are available to any Elf. These tend to run in elf families, and are remainders of the power they once had during the God’s War.

3.   Infernal Flames

The Flames of Phlegethos and Infernal Constitution are available to all races, because Demons are not very picky.

Cost of Racial Feats

There is a cost for a Racial Feat, however, unlike a typical Feat. Racial Feats cost the PC 1d6 HP whenever used, recovered after a short rest. This is because the use of one takes a lot out of the character.

Silver-Tongued

You develop your conversational skill to better deceive others. You gain the following benefits:

• Increase your Charisma score by 1, to a maximum of 20.
• You gain proficiency in the Deception skill. If you are already proficient in the skill, you add double your proficiency bonus to checks you make with it.

Make a Charisma (Deception) check contested by the target’s Wisdom (Insight) check. If your check succeeds, your movement doesn’t provoke opportunity attacks from the target and your attack rolls against it have advantage; both benefits last until the end of your next turn or until you use this ability on a different target. If your check fails, the target can’t be deceived by you in this way for 1 hour.

Spear Mastery

Though the spear is a simple weapon to learn, it rewards you for the time you have taken to master it. You gain the following benefits.

• You gain a +1 bonus to attack rolls you make with a spear.
• When you use a spear, its damage die changes from a d6 to a d8, and from a d8 to a d10 when wielded with two hands. (This benefit has no effect if another feature has already improved the weapon’s die.)
• You can set your spear to receive a charge. As a bonus action, choose a creature you can see that is at least 20 feet away from you. If that creatures moves within your spear’s reach on its next turn, you can make a melee attack against it with your spear as a reaction. If the attack hits, the target takes an extra 1d8 piercing damage, or an extra 1d10 piercing damage if you wield the spear with two hands. You can’t use this ability if the creature used the Disengage action before moving.
• As a bonus action on your turn, you can increase your reach with a spear by 5 feet for the rest of your turn

Stealthy

You know how best to hide. You gain the following benefits:

• You gain proficiency in the Religion skill. If you are already proficient in the skill, you add double your proficiency bonus to checks you make with it.
• You learn the thaumaturgy and detect evil and good spells. You can cast detect evil and good once without expending a spell slot, and you regain the ability to do so when you finish a long rest.

Multiclassing

As noted elsewhere, multiclassing is quite permissible in Wyrlde.

The trick is that one cannot start out multiclassed, even if making a new character at a higher level.  Multiclassing must be done in game, and arise out of the needs, desires, or role playing involved in the story. Pretext counts, so do not think it is going to be hard, just be aware that part of the character’s story is why they chose to multiclass, and what it was that drove them to do so.
