I'm sorry, Rayenoir, but I've read your post 3x's and it doesn't make sense. Please help me out here -
(This is what I got out of it)
Rayenoir = It evens out the regular elven modifiers and makes the strength lower and the int higher.
Sterling = Okay, that I understand. No problem...BUT...
Rayenoir = Basically, the effect of the skin changes the racial modifiers from +2 dex and -2 con to +2 int and -2 str.
Sterling = Here is where I'm confused. I had thought it was a simple typo where the bonuses of the DEX and CON were transposed. (Meaning, an Elf normally gets a +2 DEX, and -2 CON, and the Gray Elf is (as I've seen it) listed with the 'standard' Elf with the following additional modifiers to stats = -2 STR, and +2 INT. So, the sticky part here is that according to the [subrace] page, it reads; "The Gray Elf subrace skin once in game will apply -2str, -2dex, +2con, +2int". and I thought is should be -2str, +2dex, -2con, +2int; the DEX & CON transposed.
But based upon you're post, am I correct in deducing that you have CHANGED the +2 DEX & -2 CON into a -2 STR & +2 INT? (Meaning only two (2) stats have modifiers, instead of four?)
Thanx and sorry for the mess...
