-2 con
+2 wis
+2 cha
Elven traits
Instead of low light vision it has superior low light vision
favored class: Cleric

Basically think of a nymph in armor...

Glimmer Elves (I have no idea if this has been used before), not a whole lot of background given.

03-03-07, 08:30 PM IDK which thread your going to be looking at, so I'm posting this on both:

ok how does it need a LA?

with a +2 wis/cha and a -2 con...

everyone go look in the DMG pg. 173, Ability score equivielances

a negative in con, is worthy of a bonus in dex or str...

That section of the DMG is outdated and should be ignored, seriously. Choose one either wis OR cha to give a +2 bonus to (NOT BOTH) then I'll call it balanced.

At LA +0, -2 con will balance out a +2 bonus to a mental stat. If you don't believe me, I can give you plenty of examples of this being true:

Star Elf: +2 Cha -2 Con, medium, 30 ft., otherworldly touch (su), extraplanar (su), bard, humanoid (elf), unapproachable east pg.10

Sun Elf: +2 Int -2 Con, medium, 30 ft., wizard, humanoid (elf), forgotten realms pg.15

Hellbred (Spirit): +2 Cha -2 Con, medium, 30 ft, hellbound (su), spirit (su), paladin, humanoid (hellbred), Fiendish Codex II pg.78

Spellscale: +2 Cha -2 Con, medium, 30 ft., sorcerer and same as base creature, humanoid (dragonblood), races of the dragon pg.21

Also, you may want to get rid of one elven ability to balance out improved low-light vision

03-03-07, 08:58 PM could give it -2 dex -2 con +2 wis +2 cha, but -2 dex isn't fitting of an elf... Could only name it the Leveladusted Elf...
