Top 10 D&D 3.5e Races I want in D&D 5e part 1 | Nerd Immersion

[@moquips]

3:43 Simic Hybrid has "Manta Glide" as a 1st level option. "Manta Glide - You have ray-like fins that you use as wings to slow your fall or allow you to glide. When you fall and are not incapacitated, you can subtract up to 100 feet from your fall when calculating your fall damage and can move horizontally 2 feet for every 1 foot you fall."

[@devonfree4781]

Lol glad someone beat me to it.

[@Torthrodhel]

I was thinking of that. Really one of my favourite race options for that customisability.

[@raynmakr40]

People need to quit sleepin on Simic, it's basically a build-your-own-monster race.

[@moquips]

@@raynmakr40 Simic Hybrid Stone Sorcerer can get an AC of 21 with no Magic, no Armor, and a Shield, Plus a +11 to Concentration Checks... all just by having + 5 Con

[@Battleguild]

I wish the Myconoids were a possible player race. It would be really thematic for them to be a Circle of Spores Druid.

[@khajiitinskyrim8874]

I would love to see that in a underdark campaign like Into the Abyss

[@dustyngoldstien199]

There's a homebrew race of on the dnd wiki that seems pretty balanced

[@Mystic-Moose]

An official Myconid race, and an official Treant-like tree race is desperatly needed in my campaigns! Theyre so great!

[@Battleguild]

@DialatedPupils If I were to make a Mycanoid race. I'd probably have a template where players are based off the Sprout from levels 1-4, the Adult lv 5-8, then treated as a Sovereign at lv 9+. The race has: -2 Str +1 Wis -2 Int -5 Cha Small, Plant 10ft movement 120ft Darkvision Distress Spore Sun Sickness Innate Spellcasting: Verbal components aren't required to cast spells. Fist: deals 1d4 bludgeoning and 1d4 poison. Rapport Spores 3/day. 5th lv threshold: Medium, Plant Natural Armor (12) +10 ft (20) Distress Spores Sun Sickness Fist gains an additional +1d4 bludgeoning and +1d4 poison. (2d4 each total) Pacifying Spores 3/day. Rapport Spores (Unl.) +10ft range (20) 9th lv threshold: Large, Plant Natural Armor (13) +10ft movement (30) Distress Spores Sun Sickness Multiattack: As an action, the player may use hallucinating or pacifying spores, and then makes a Fist attack. Fist gains an additional +1d4 bludgeoning and +1 poison. (3d4 each total) Animating Spores 3/day Hallucinating Spores (Unl.) Pacifying Spores (Unl.) Rapport Spores (+10ft, 30 total)

Honestly I think races are one of the few areas that 5e has given us a good number of. That said, bring back shardminds and devas.

[@Rikuearth]

Shardminds for sure. Deffintly a really unique race. I think the conversion from 4e to 5e wouldn't be to bad. Might just have to tweak some stuff.

[@trinitydalfae8478]

The two races we'd most like to see in 5E are the Cansin from Dragon magazine (basically Aasimar & Tieflings but for faeries), and the Asherati from sandstorm (Bio-luminescent hydrophobic sand people). We'd also really love to see a party with both an Asherati and a Locatha. It's a moisture based odd couple! One will die if they stay dry, one will die if they get wet; together they raid dungeons and fight dragons!

[@quinnd.silvers3608]

The Simic Hybrid in 5e has a gliding mechanic if you choose to get the manta glide ability! Also I didn't know that phantaton existed in 3.5, but it seems they're just a smaller version of the Hadozee "The winged deck monkeys" from Stormwrack, which I'm severely disappointed you choose darfellan over Hadozee as they are clearly the best race from Stormwrack. Also sweet Killoren are on this list, I just found out that they existed recently and they're neat and unique!

[@MrNetWraith]

Phanaton actually came out in the very same year as Hadozee. Phanatons debuted for BECMI in Dragon #188 and Hadozee debuted for Spelljammer under the AD&D system in the Complete Spacefarer's Handbook, both of which were published in 1992.

[@darkwarwick]

In the d&d 3.5 ed expedition to the demonweb Pitt, there was a kind of flying squirrel people called ratatosk as a possible character race.

Ghost Elves do sound pretty cool. I would like to hear Jorphdan talk about them.

[@craigtucker1290]

I don't think there is much to talk about since they are not part of any official setting. the only material seems to be from the one Dragon Magazine article and that is unofficial as in not canon.

I actually really like the idea of giving certain metamagic abilities to certain races, either as baked into thier racial spells, or as a feature they can use once per rest or per prof. bonus.

[@inversenexarus9152]

I'd love if The Kor got a official release. So far they've only been in MTG and a few homebrew documents involving Zandikar. What isn't there to love about Barbarians on Super-Cocaine? They live in the sky on floating rocks, traveling Prince of Persia style by running on vertical surfaces and using hooks to keep momentum. Their language is non-verbal, essentially sign language, most likely so they can clearly communicate in the roaring winds. And they're the only other race than Halflings that gets access to Lucky as a racial trait.

[@Logan-ef8hq]

Idk what edition they came from but I've always loved Thri-kreen and Shardminds. Especially Shardminds

[@gregolder1713]

oh my god I once ran a sea campaign in 3.5e and had two players run Darfellan brothers and it was hella fun. Seeing it on your list made me happy to see the Darfellan rep

[@departure696]

For the Spell Scale I could see them having an ability like the Satyr from MOoT where spell scales are considered Dragon instead of humanoid, this would make them immune to hold person and on spell that require you to target a humanoid.

[@spiritandsteel]

Man... that spellscale art. I had forgotten how completely haphazard some of the art was in 3.5. Not trying to knock it, but hooo boy they didn't really stick with any kind of theme or style in most of those books, did they. That one looks almost like a photoshop collage...? Bold choices.

[@1S1KStealth]

I miss my old Dromite at all of 2'4" with +3 natural AC and energy resistance, and being monstrous humanoid was immune to pesky humanoid spells eg dominate person

[@oniminikui]

In my homebrew, killoren reproduced from a giant white tree.This shell that the killoren came from were golden seeds hanging from the tree. The killoren blood were green that immeditately became mossy, sprouting tiny white leaves that eventually grew into these white trees.

[@zombiemanjosh]

Funnily enough I actually did make a dog-person race a few months ago. It's based on Tabaxi but now I'm going to have to go back and make some edits based on some of the ideas you mentioned. For anyone curious, this is what I have now, pre-update: Inurio Ability Scores: Con +2, Choose 1 from: Str, Dex, Con, Int, Wis, Cha Size: Medium Speed: 30ft, burrow 15ft Age. Inurio have lifespans equivalent to humans, but reach maturity around 10 years. Size. Inurio are taller than your average human and range in build from slender to bulky depending on their breed. Your size is medium. Blindsight. You have the keen senses of a canine, specifically smell and hearing. You can perceive your surroundings within 60ft of you without using sight through scents and sounds as long as you can hear and there is no strong wind. Canine Instincts. Your nature as a canine makes you geared towards fighting with partners. You have advantage on attack rolls against a creature if at least one of your allies is within 5ft of the creature and is not incapacitated. A dog to the core despite being humanoid, Inurio are adept at digging, you have a burrow speed of 15ft. Dogged Determination. Fiercely loyal, you cling to life to defend members of your pack. If you are reduced to 0 hit points but not outright killed and are within 10 feet of an ally, you can drop to 1 hit point instead. Dog's Talent. You have proficiency in Perception and Insight. Languages. You can speak, read, and write Common and one other language of your choice. The floating stat point is to represent your chosen breed. Greyhounds would likely have a +1 to their Dex. Bloodhounds would have extra Wis for tracking. Mastiffs would probably double down on Con or take the Str. So on and so forth. I made them to be goodboy literal-guard dogs and obsessively loyal mercenaries for a homebrew setting. I welcome all suggestions and critiques.

[@KevinVideo]

My own Top 10 list that I'd like to see in 5e: 10) Half-giant (Expanded Psionics) - Give us some glorious Dark Sun. 9) Death-Touched (Dragon 313) - humanoid usually created via an undead bloodline (not unlike the spellscale having dragon blood). 8) Azerblood (Dragon 350) - tiefling/aasimar version of a dwarf. Could just be a subrace of a dwarf like a duergar. 7) Diabolus (Dragon 327) - an outsider satyr with a scorpion tail. 6) Dvati (Dragon Compendium Vol 1) - This is less likely to ever happen, but they're essentially twins that share hit points. They don't necessarily have to share classes either. 5) Spelljammer races (Dragon 339): insectare, giff, and scro - Instead of listing them individually, just pile them all into one listing because all three would be fantastic to have. 4) Gruwaar (Dragon 317) - monkeylike goblin cat fey. Because heck yeah! 3) Whisper Gnome (Races of Stone) - a subtype of the gnome, but incredibly stealthy and very, very silent. 2) Thri-kreen, non-psionic (Monster Manual II) - another dark sun race, but has four arms and has a crazy jump ability. 1) Hellbred (Fiendish Codex II) - humanoids that messed up when they were alive, but are given a second chance to redeem themselves, and are reincarnated into a hellflame scarred version of their former selves. Think Spawn. They would be their own race, but would have two subraces, not unlike the suggested 3.5 dragonborn of Bahamut conversion having three. The hellbred chooses either Body or Spirit. Unfortunately, Devil-Touched feats don't exist, so the "Body" would need to be adjusted. Runners Up: The psionic races (Complete Psionic and Expanded Psionics) - Synad, elan, xeph, and maenad. These would be great, but we don't have actual psionic classes (yet). This would also open up the half-giant and thri-kreen subraces that were psionic powered. You could make non-psionic versions of each race, and then expand them later, but it wouldn't feel that authentic.

[@MrNetWraith]

Phanatons got a 3.5 writeup, having previously only appeared for BECMI, in Dragon issues #339 and #351. Their first appearance as PCs was in Dragon #188, but they debuted as monsters in the module X1: Isle of Dread.

[@brianpatrickdaly]

goin crazy with the videos today! very exciting.

[@fluxer39]

There's a DMSGuild material called "The Book of Dragons for 5th Edition" that has the Platinum Dragonborn with has a similar mechanic to the Dragonbord of Bahamut.

[@Xtra_Medium]

Spellscales and Darfellen were 2 of the first races I read about when 3.5 introduced me to D&D If I was gonna cobble together a 3.5 wishlist it would probably include Hellbred, Elan, Thri Kreen and Hengeyokai

[@TheAardvark57]

Great video. I’d love to see a sequel to this with more great 3.5 races we’re missing out on.

[@apweaver3498]

The Ghost Elves sound cool, I would probably go the Deep Gnome route, not give them spells to start but give them Ghost Elf Magic as a Feat which would let you cast See Invisibility, Blink and Etherealness once each per long rest. I would give them a racial feature that once per short rest let you end the Restrained and/or Grappled condition.

31:00 I like to give animal-based races the free use of speak with animals for the animal they're based off like cat to cat dog to dog snake to snake. Also I like to give them an advantage on persuasion against those of the same type like a Lupin wolf speaking with a regular wolf or a tabaxi tabby and a regular tabby cat.

[@jand.4737]

15:00 that hurts to hear. 5e does have a good section on elven lore in mordenkainen's. it just doesn't have such detaled chapters on all published races (yet)

For the Phantaton the bonuses while in forests could be like the the Svirfneblin's Stone Camouflage, giving Adv. on Stealth checks while in forests. With the added forest knowledge just being Proficiency in Nature or Survival or both.

So many videos today! And all great quality as usual! You are awesome!

[@dragonmaster613]

most of the "(Race Name) Characters" section of each race (adventurers, personality, roleplaying, etc) was in 4E as well (mostly in the Essentials Books like Heroes of Fallen Kingdoms).

[@mr_pazu6748]

Phanatons originally came from D&D Basic and the setting of Mystara. If you want a stated up version of them for playing in 5e go ask Mr Welch on his channel, he's basicly "THE" Mystara guy that's trying to bring the setting back, and he has some stats for Phanatons

[@thistrout]

The Deck of Many's Humblewood setting has winged races that cannot fly but do glide. I really like how they've implemented.

[@heroniusnapalmv6990]

Simic hybrids have a glide mechanic (2ft horizontal for every 1 ft verticle and subtract 100ft for calculating falling damage) in 5e

[@Neshoba1337]

I'd love to see the Lupin, as I very much love Mystara. However despite the video avoiding it, I'd still love to see the environmental subraces

[@stugod5000]

I think I made a few of these by accident especially the ghost elf and the Dragonborn I was really surprised by the darfellan Darfellan was by making a goliath equivalent of a sea-elf and flavouring a Totem barbarian with sea creatures with orca being bear also giving him some Battle master fighter and Gloomstalker levels and a narwhal harpoon (greatsword with a chain of returning). Echolocation for him was any type of water and it a survival check (so putting his hand in a puddle or a lake would activate it)

[@jamesstaton3265]

I'm want gnolls that aren't mindless predators. Hyenas are cool.

[@MattNeisinger]

Tibbit. A magically evolved race that began as wizard familiars, they're a shapechanger that looks like a halfling, but can change into the form of a domestic cat at will. In 5e, this would be like having an unlimited number of uses of wild shape, but only to change into a cat. Modron: Don't just re-skin the warforged. That's weak. Don't take away their wings, there are flying races available already. Don't give them the ability to wear armor, give them an AC calculation or a flat AC, like the tortle. Lupin: +1 CON and WIS, +1 floating bonus (or based on sub-race). Keen senses. Darkvision to 60 feet. Pack tactics. Bite attack: 1d4 piercing. On hit, can attempt shove (trip) attack as a reaction. Ghost elf: Revenant. Dragonborn of Bahamut: Just fix the Dragonborn.

[@rabbidcreature9681]

Geez pumping these out like crazy lately. Don't tire yourself out man.

[@graydragoon874]

being a different type other than humanoid is a huge buff, because things like hold person, and charm person dont work on things that are not humanoid, so would say that having a subtype other than human is a huge advantage (like satyrs and centaurs, because they are fey)

[@bakomusha]

I had a Darfellan pop up in a 5e game. I used the Goliath stats, and replaced the mountain stuff with deep water stuff.

[@melvixen1943]

Maybe a book on "Races of the planes" would be neat with a species that are not from various planes. Like the Foxpeople from Kamigawa (which would be my pick duh), the more deer like elves and centaurs. Boggarts, Cephaloids and the metal variants of phyrexia and mirrodin.

[@Mazzy774i]

So many great races to come back from 3.5 and 4

[@VengefulJarl]

I can see the glimmerfolk being descendants of humans that were trapped in the feywild. I would probably give their nimels acting as a dancing light type effect (except they have to stay by them and cant form the humanoid) permanently until they burn them out for the effects

Great video! I would love to see Half Dragons show up in a future sourcebook. I get that it would be a bit difficult since half-dragons can have ANY OTHER RACE be the other half, but I think there's a way to make it work! They are so cool story-wise, and honestly, most people play Dragonborns like they are half-dragons anyway, so why NOT give us an option to play those characters a bit more cannon!

[@josephmurdock5549]

[@casters_and_co]

Maybe Spellscales could get the Dragon subtype like how the Centaur and Satyr have the Fey subtype instead of Humanoid.

[@theblindbuildergrandminuti5648]

You could do the right of rebirth as a feat that the character eventually earned/qualified to get, and have part of a session where they go through the symbolism in ceremony. Actually think would be really funny to see a Dragon born go through this process and be a re - dragon born. It’s kind of funny because the terminology would for a Dragon born would be born again, ha ha ha ha.

[@BudroThePious]

If I could pick one it would be Thri-kreen all the way. I would love to see a Kitsune option. I think they did my Warforged dirty and would like to see them bring back subraces and the concept that they don't need to take rests except to recharge abilities. Warforged initially would often take up night watchmen roles and carve little wooden toys to stave off boredom, since they never had to rest.

[@sapphirewingthefurrycritic985]

Honestly, I'd like the dragonborn to just be revamped and there are subraces. Not like the ones in Wildemount, those can be thrown into a fire. Like you take the aspects of a dragon such as their wisdom, strength or their intelligence and you can choose a subrace that works for what kind of class you want. Like take the stat increases for the wildemount dragonbonr (those are fine) and some of the more useful traits like darkvision. Also, have a number of dragon breath charges that are 1 + your con modifier, you can spend more than one charge and add 2d6 of the damage type and keep the resistances. Hell, you can give one of the subraces something like natural armor. I homebrewed something like this, I never got a chance to play test it but essentially I took the ideas of dragonborn subraces and made them actually good. And they look more like dragons with horns and tails.

[@thornelson1411]

You have the Dragonborn of Bahamut in your world. Have you converted the 3.5 version to 5e yet or are you just using what is in the PHB with tweaks that you have made? The reason I ask is because I think I have made a good 5e version taking into consideration some of the things you have said in this video and the fixing dragonborn video. If you want to see it that is.

[@bryceio]

As someone who is currently playing a Dragonborn of Bahamut in a 5e campaign, I was really not expecting that to be #1 on the list. Ever since I found out about them, I think I’ve really liked them for 2 reasons. 1) They choose to dedicate their entire lives to fighting to protect the world from creatures who wish to destroy or rule it. Not only do they show this in actions, but they give their entire body to the cause, sacrificing everything they once were in order to protect other people. 2) I just really like dragons

[@joshuakanapkey6570]

I loved the Killoren from *Races of the Wild* and the 2e Lupin (yay, Mystara!) were always fun counters to the Rakasta, especially in the *Red Steel* setting! The rest of these races are a bit "meh" for my tastes and don't really bring anything new to the tabletop.

[@lordmars2387]

Thri-kreen (not sure if 3.5) would top out my list. To be blunt we already have a rainbow of elves we don't need more. Nicter and dog race definitely needed. I wouldn't even give the base dog race anything it would just have a dozen subraces.

Make it a feat which opens up more "Racial" feats later on like the wings etc you can get from Dragon sorcerer / urdwings for cobold. That way you get the Racial features of the base race plus whatever you choose as the dragonnized version of yourself.

In the setting that I'm currently working on, the Dragonborn are all "reborn" Lizardfolk. A Lizardfolk PC could potentially become a Dragonborn and gain a Draconic Ancestry resistance and breath weapon on top of their normal traits, but their ability scores don't change. A PC that starts out as a Dragonborn gets the Lizardfolk's Bite, Hold Breath and Natural Armor traits, as well as one Wildemount variant's feature; either Forceful Presence if they are of Metallic or Vengeful Assault if they are of Chromatic anestry (depending on the dragon that provided the scales for the ritual), in addition to their standard Player's Handbook features. They don't get Cunning Artisan, Hunter's Lore or Hungry Jaws, since those are cultural rather than physical traits.

I would love to see avariel in 5e. I've homebrewed one but something official would be nice.

As a wiz main, what we really need is more Intelligence based races (yes I know Tasha may change everything)
