As above post by Estarra suggests, we should think of distinctive abilities/traits races should have! Like, emotes, small RP skills, all that. So, suggest away!

Here's a small table I'll keep updated:

Aslaran
Level 25: Small chance of avoiding damage/broken limbs when falling.
Level 50: GROOM to get effect of a cleanse enchant, but with much much longer balance loss.
Level 75: When meditating, regain mana/ego/willpower 5% faster, stacking with other boosts. (reference to Shanth of the Quiet Mind)

Dracnari
Level 25:
Level 50:
Level 75:

Dwarf

Level 75:

Trill

Level 75:

Viscanti
Level 25:
Level 50:
Level 75:




A few suggestions I thought of:
Perhaps Viscanti could gain, at those levels, random abilities from other races? Seeing as they are, in fact, just an amalgamation of them.

For the rest, I'll write later, just wanted to get this one out. :X

I just posted on the other thread, but...
Aslaran:
25: Small chance of avoiding damage/broken limbs when falling.
50: GROOM to get effect of a cleanse enchant, but with much much longer balance loss.
75: When meditating, regain mana/ego/willpower 5% faster, stacking with other boosts. (reference to Shanth of the Quiet Mind)

~ Proficiencies with some specific skills. For example:
Lucidians get +10% bonus on all Astrological Spheres.
Dwarves have a better chance of getting high stats while forging.
Kephera get x bonuses from certain Harmony chants.
Deepcover/Veil lasts longer for Illithoids.
Furrikin get a bonus to Acrobatics Dodge.
Undead Orclach have their cutting/blunt resistances and fire weakness increased by 1 level.

~Affliction resistances. For example:
Illithoid/Kephera have a x% resistance to afflictions of the mind.
Tae'dae recover from crushed ego 2 minutes quicker.
Trill have a greater resistance to being knocked from trees/sky.

What levels would you set those things on?

Elfen
Level 50: Beguile/Diplomacy - 5% total Ego boost.

Faelings should also get this, as they're partly Elfen (fae+elfen, actually).

Yeah... Demi Faelings, Demi Elfen with thrones and a beauty blessing... painful.

(In other words, this probably isn't the sort of thing to give to races with the highest charisma potential already, unless you're lowering the charisma at the same time)

I'd say give Trill a wingsmack ability for level 25, all it would do is a little damage. Not some horrible amount, just some little bit if anything.

I was going to say stun, then I realized just how bad that would be. Very bad.

Dwarves, having lower centers of gravity and being stocky could have a racial skill that makes proning/knockdown them a little bit more difficult than say a tall Trill.

Faeling/Furrikin being small and higher in dex, may have a small chance of avoiding trample like tactics on being knockdown/prone... Since they are so tiny, the trampling animal may only hit 1-2 of the body parts instead of all 4.

Tae'dae/Lobo when "defending" have an increase in str (like how taurians get) - Something that would show the "bear/wolf" like instinct shine through, how they defend their young??

Loboshigaru can form "packs" granting them "something" for hunting in a group of lobos (like wolves).

Give Igashos Scaling at a certain level. They can't go see the only place their race is represented, maybe at level 75?

Loboshigaru
Level 25: HOWL to give fear.
Level 50: A male can become a pack leader, and other loboshigarus of any level can join the pack. Works the same as Kephera hives (unless somebody can think of something better)
Level 75: SCENT!!!

Meh..5% isn't really gamebreaking, thats bumchange. I was going to say +1 charisma, but that is a little much.


Edit:

Lucidian
75: Lucidity? (less astral insanity like from the circlet)

Hrm...there's a point. How about a racial ability for faster eq?

Sorry, as I've only played a Trill I can only offer suggestions on them:

Level 25: GRACEFULNESS : Slightly increased chance of an attack missing.

Level 50: TAKEOFF : Mustering your speed and energy, you are able to flap your wings hard in a direction and escape. *Essentially, a flying form of tumble that puts you in the next room in the air. Slightly longer balance time than tumble to compensate for the fact that you'll be at a different elevation. Can't be done if prone, have two broken legs, or are off-balance (or equi?).*.

Level 75: LAND : Folding your wings behind you and dropping at an accelerated rate, you are able to land directly on a person, causing them harm and possibly knocking them off-balance, or even prone. *Not sure how much damage it should do. Perhaps 30% chance of knocking them off-balance, 10% prone? Will cost balance*.

I was about to suggest something like this too!

Some other ideas:

- Ability to 'cast' gust, using your wings. Would only be room-wide effect... maybe at higher level it could be targeted.
- Faster recovering time from take-off to flying (I'm inclined to suggest this as a racial advantage rather than racial ability)
- Able to move through rooms in the air at a faster rate before getting 'Don't be so hasty' (Again, perhaps a racial advantage?)

Tekora suggested it to! We want

http://forums.lusternia.com/index.php?s=&a...st&p=503329

Level 25 - Currents
Level 50 - Takeoff
Level 75 - Evasion

Hmm.

*points you at Crow skillset*

Hmmm.

*steals Crow's abilities and gives them to Trill*

Much better.

Though I do like Tekora's 'Currents' ability as an alternative. Evasion never really came to my mind though... perhaps because I already have dodge in acrobatics =/
Edit: Well, give Evasion a high enough percentage and also able to dodge those demesne effects and it would be pretty nice

Dodge doesn't let you avoid Geyser and Hexagram at altitude.








...does it?
