no edit summary
* Half-Nymph [[base land speed]] is 30 feet.
* [[SRD:Low-Light Vision|Low-Light Vision]] ([[SRD:Special Abilities Overview#Extraordinary|Ex]]): A Half-Nymph can see twice as far as a Human in starlight, moonlight, torchlight, and similar conditions of poor illumination. She retains the ability to distinguish color under these conditions.
* '''Fascinating Beauty {{Ex}}:''' This ability affects all humanoids within 30 feet of a Half-Nymph. Those who look directly at her must succeed on a [[SRD:Fortitude|Fortitude]] save (DC 10 + ½ her character level + her Charisma modifier) or be [[SRD:Fascinated|fascinated]] for 1 round and then [[SRD:Dazzled|dazzled]] for the duration of the encounter. A Half-Nymph can suppress or resume this ability as a free action. Anyone who successfully makes a save against the Half-Nymph's fascinating beauty are immune to it's effects for 24 hours.
* '''Unearthly Grace {{Su}}:''' A Half-Nymph's natural beauty makes it hard for others to act against her. She gains a +1 bonus to all saving throws and a +1 deflection bonus to armor class.
* Add +1 to the Difficulty Class for all saving throws against [[SRD:Enchantment School|enchantment]] spells cast by a Half-Nymph. Their innate familiarity with interpersonal communication and their naturally charming demeanor make their enchantments more difficult to resist. This adjustment stacks with those from similar effects such as the [[SRD:Spell Focus|Spell Focus]] feat.
* While a Half-Nymph's body takes more after its [[SRD:Nymph|Nymph]] parent, a Half-Nymph's mind takes more after its versatile and capable [[SRD:Human|Human]] lineage. Half-Nymphs gain +4 skill points at first level and 1 extra skill point at each additional level. (The 4 skill points at first level are added on as a bonus, not multiplied in; see the Players Handbook).
* +2 racial bonus on [[SRD:Diplomacy Skill|Diplomacy]] and [[SRD:Gather Information Skill|Gather Information]] checks. A Half-Nymph's outgoing personality helps her get along naturally with all folk.
* +2 bonus on [[SRD:Sense Motive Skill|Sense Motive]] checks. When speaking to one another, Half-Nymphs tend to augment their verbal communication with subtle body language. They are likewise able to "read" the unintentional body language of others.
* +4 racial bonus on all [[SRD:Swim Skill|Swim]] checks. A Half-Nymph is just as at home in the water as a Nymph and a Half-Nymph can always take 10 on swim checks even if stress or distractions would normally prevent it.
* '''Fascinating Beauty {{Ex}}:''' This ability affects all humanoids within 30 feet of a Half-Nymph. Those who look directly at her must succeed on a [[SRD:Fortitude|Fortitude]] save (DC 10 + ½ her character level + her Charisma modifier) or be [[SRD:Fascinated|fascinated]] for 1 round and then [[SRD:Dazzled|dazzled]] for the duration of the encounter. A Half-Nymph can suppress or resume this ability as a free action. Anyone who successfully makes a save against the Half-Nymph's fascinating beauty are immune to it's effects for 24 hours.
* '''Unearthly Grace {{Su}}:''' A Half-Nymph's natural beauty makes it hard for others to act against her. She gains a +1 bonus to all saving throws and a +1 deflection bonus to armor class.
* Add +1 to the Difficulty Class for all saving throws against [[SRD:Enchantment School|enchantment]] spells cast by a Half-Nymph. Their innate familiarity with interpersonal communication and their naturally charming demeanor make their enchantments more difficult to resist. This adjustment stacks with those from similar effects such as the [[SRD:Spell Focus|Spell Focus]] feat.
* Nymph Blood: For all effects related to race, a Half-Nymph is considered a [[SRD:Nymph|Nymph]]. Half-Nymphs for example are just as vulnerable to special effects that affect Nymphs as their Nymph ancestors are, and they can use magic items that are only usable by Nymphs. (See the Monster Manual for more information on [[SRD:Nymph|Nymphs]], and the Dungeon Master's Guide for more information on magic items).
* [[SRD:Automatic Languages|Automatic Languages]]: Common and Sylvan.
