There's something fascinating here, but it's ignored for the same annoying mary-sue flavored special snowflake crap found on almost every other homebrew race on this wiki.

Fluff aside, ECL and Level Adjustment don't correspond, so there's a rather ugly discrepancy there. If the ECl is 2 for the base, the level adjustment should be more than 0, shouldn't it?


They have monster hd, in this case I believe it is giant hit dice. ECL is racial HD + LA + Class level, so a level 2 party could have a level 2 human rogue, a level 1 tiefling wizard and a sol-duvaan who has no class level. As for the flavor I can reread what I wrote, it a pretty old race. I however do not remember anything outstanding about these guys. --Leziad (talk) 21:02, 24 December 2014 (UTC)
I do not see anything particularly outstanding here (except it fair share of typoes), they are just vaguely indian multi-armed sun giants (which sound really bad but it more or less in line with other giants). While they are definitely not human-tier (few things are) we need to keep in mind that in the game we have nigh-perfect being in tune with nature (elves), tormented spawn of fiends (tifeling), the beautiful spawn of the celestials (aasimar) and that without going toward anything even vaguely exotic. Maybe if you could point out what bit of the flavor is offensive to you maybe we can see each other eyes to eyes. I do admit they are definitely not for common average fantasy game like warforged, most dragonblooded race and other actually most races found in splat books. --Leziad (talk) 21:13, 24 December 2014 (UTC)
