Unique Appearance (Trait): You are very easy to remember or identify. Anyone trying to remember you, notice you in a crowd, or otherwise locate you based on appearance gains a +2 Innate Bonus on their checks. This particular version of the trait does NOT grant you an additional trait point.

Note – Basic Valefor Traits: All valefor have some type of horns and a tail. A valefor’s tail is partially prehensile; it can hold small items, but is not deft enough to go through pockets for particular items, attack creatures, wield weapons, or open doors. The horns of a valefor are normally only aesthetic features. Allow players to describe their horns however they like, but they should generally not provide any combat modifications.

Demonic Heritage – You gain a +1 Innate Bonus on WILL Saves, and Choose two of the following:

  -From the Depths: +1 INT, +1 WIS, -2 CHA. Gain the Scent ability. You can cast Darkness 1/day as SLA (CL=Character Level). Your face is notably more demonic, with scaly or folded features around your nostrils, and sharper teeth in your mouth. Other features such as larger horns, longer ears, solid black eyes, additional protrusions or spines, or others may be added if desired.

  -Abyssal Claws: You gain a Natural Weapon - Claw: 1d4+STRMod/20/x2 [s+p]. This increases to 1d6 damage at Level 5. Each of your hands is treated as a Natural Weapon & may be used to make this attack. Any gloves you wear must be fingerless. If you gain the Unarmed Combat Feat the damage increases +1 Die Size.

  -Deceiver: +1 INT, +1 CHA, -1 STR. You gain a +2 Innate Bonus to Bluff, Diplomacy, Under Cover.

  -Legionnaire: +1 STR, +1 CON, -1 DEX. Innate bonus of +5’ Land speed. You have either cloven feet (similar to a satyr) or clawed feet (similar to a predatory dinosaur). You cannot wear boots, but may wear wrappings, horseshoes, or anklets instead.

  -Demonic Hide: You gain a Natural Armor Rating of 1. At Level 8, Fire Resist increases to Fire Resist 10.

Your skin is a rich or iridescent shade of red, blue, or purple with visible scales. Most people will know you are demonic on sight.

  -Trickster: +1 DEX, +1 INT, -1 STR. You gain a +2 Innate Bonus to Acrobatics, Move Silently, Sleight of Hand

  -Fully Prehensile Tail: +1 DEX. You gain a +1 Innate Bonus on Wrestling checks. Your tail can carry, wield, and store small items. The tail may wield a light weapon as if held in an off-hand. (Your tail cannot wield a weapon heavier than a “light weapon.” Fine manipulation, such as disarming traps, with the tail is nowhere near as good as a real hand, but may be attempted with a -4 Penalty.) -Feats that affect “Two-Weapon Fighting” also apply to your tail.

  -Hellfire Blood: +1 CHA. You can cast Burning Hands 1/day as a SLA (Big Action, No AOO). Spell Level (SL) = Half Character Level (Min SL1, max SL5) REF Save DC[10+SL+CHAMod]. If a spellcaster, Burning Hands is added to your spells known/spellbook once you access SL1 spells (it does not take up a “spell known” slot, and is always considered “memorized”). At Level 8 you may use this ability 2/day. Your eyes glow red or yellow as if on fire when angered or excited.

  -Tactician: +1 INT. You gain a +1 Innate Bonus to Initiative, as well as Listen, Spot, and Tactics. Your ears are pointed, and your eyes appear to have no pupils, being a solid color with a slight glow matching or complementing your skin tone.

Note: Players may select similar aesthetics presented here for any Valefor if they desire, but they only gain the statistical effects for the two they selected.

Valefor – Additional Information & Descriptions:

Physical: A valefor is quite easy to spot in a crowd; although their size and appearance can vary wildly. Nearly all of them have vivid-colored skin, horns, and long tails. They can be tall and burly or short and lithe, and may or may not have hair. Their skin ranges from blue to red to green to purple, sometimes with iridescent scales or even a thin layer of fur. They can have reptilian claws or cloven hooves, small horns hidden under their hair, or massive horns that curl around like a ram. Their tails can be 3-6 feet long, and some are able to use it like another hand. Their eyes range from pure black to icy blue, fiery red, or shimmering gold.

Social: Regardless of their personality or particular appearance, valefor can never seem to shake the stigma of their demonic heritage. They are shunned and mistrusted by nearly all other races, even being hunted and killed by zealots of certain religious societies. With so few of these rare outsiders in the realms, as well as their unfortunate reputation, valefor do not have their own communities. They often live in the outskirts, slums, and underground areas of human and elven locales, forced to hide from view or disguise their true nature. This makes many valefor primed for adventure, happy to work with the rare few who see past the negative reputation and appreciate them for their individual personality and abilities.

Valefor-Age: Adult-20, Middle Age-80, Maximum-170

Valefor-Height/Weight: Male 5’4”-7’/120-350lbs Female: 5’-6’10” / 90-180lbs

M: 163-188cm/54-109kg F: 152-175cm/41-82kg

​

Other Info: Valefor can mate with humans or elves, but the offspring gains the characteristics of only one race; the offspring of such a pairing will function as pure valefor, pure human, or pure elf.
