Vistani tribal effects
« on: October 21, 2020, 08:26:54 PM »
The half-Vistani roleplay guide describes bonuses for Vistani tribes, however these aren't in the game. It would be neat to see some of the tribal effects available for half-Vistani PCs!

The simplest thing would be to provide a small skill bonus based on tribe, for example:

Kamii: MS/Hide
Equaar: Animal Empathy
Vatraska: Heal
Naiat: Perform
Corvara: Open Lock
Canjar: Spellcraft
Zarovan: Concentration

This could be done via a feat which is available for half-vistani to select (similar to how other races get to select racial feats).

I think these are actually in game. If you scroll down to the bottom, you will see the bonuses half-vistani currently get in game for each tribe.

At present, all Half-Vistani receive the Alertness Feat.  Each tribe might also receive an additional Feat, but the only one I know for sure right now is that Zarovan receive Improved Initiative.

Oh, interesting!

I'm not sure I ever got this, I wasn't even aware of it. Maybe it isn't given to Giamarga?

The Alertness feat appears to be missing - is that intentional?

Yes, as mentioned previously here's what they get:

+2 Wis
-2 Cha
+2 Lore

They don't get any other half-vistani properties.

Correct! :)
