By popular demand, here it is! Toonkind v1.0, ready for the show.
If anyone out there actually goes and tests it out, let me know! I’d love to hear feedback, both for what needs tweaking and just for what shenanigans you get into.
I have some questions/feedback!
- What stats are used for the spell saves for Hideous Laughter and Enthrall?
- For Hammerspace, can they store an unlimited number for 3ft³ objects, or is the entire space 3ft³? If not, what is the max dimensions, and total weight limit?
- I assume from the size that they’re Medium sized but it would be nice to call it out.
- Having Alignment on there would be nice as well, as per most (if not all) racial descriptions.
- Blink at 3rd character level seems a bit overpowered. You typically don’t get 3rd level spells until 5th character level. I would also have all three subraces get their spell at 3rd level, similar to how Aasimar (and a lot of other!) subraces work.
- To replace Blink, you could consider Blur, Magic Mouth, or Rope Trick to keep in theme. Those are all 2nd level spells.
- Silent Image is okay, it’s 1st level and you could keep it. But if you wanted to bring it up to 2nd level to be consistent, Alter Self or Mirror Image could be thematic.
- Hideous Laughter and Enthrall are both WIS saving throws.
-The whole space is 3ft³. They can store a whole bunch of small objects, or one big anvil, whatever. Naturally, it all still needs to be marked down in Inventory, no making up objects out of nowhere.
-While the majority of the race is Medium, I wanted to leave it a little more open for anyone who wants to go a little wilder with their design. There’s always Tweety Birds and Speedy Gonzales, after all.
-I wasn’t sure if it was necessary to include if they didn’t have a particular alignment, but I’ll make sure to include it in later updates.
-Yeah, I wasn’t entirely sure about that. Spell levels vs. character levels has always been weird for me to figure out.
-I’d like to keep the teleportation effect in here, as reference to how cartoon characters can just show up in places out of nowhere. Misty Step would probably be the best trade-out.
-Silent Image is too thematic to the idea to drop; it’s lower level, which is why i gave it more uses per day than the other, higher-level spells.
Thanks for the feedback, I really do appreciate it. I’m far from the most informed about the nitty gritty of mechanics, and I’ll be sure to tweak things in a future version.
