Is there a feat that makes the halfling a medium sized creature? What if I wanted to play an Elf, but want to be small? is there a feat that does that? Just wondering because there are a few builds I was thinking of that would need these sorta size changes to work.....

There are racial abilities that PARTIALLY do it (Powerfull Build)- i.e. generally by giving you everything except the reach. But those are too strong for a feat (and does not stack with Monkey Grip). They are basically improved versions of Monkey Grip. --------- The reverse, counting as smaller, might be legal, at least if you restricted it to from medium to small (minimal gains). Still, smaller is huge benefits for hiding/to hit/AC. It is not that hard to create a build that does not suffer much from the disadvantages (Disarm/Sunder/Trip/reach/weapon damage). A wizard type has big benefits. I would expect: Strict game: Not allowed Loose Game: let you move from Medium sized to Small sized for a feat, but that's it. Power Game: From Small to Medium for a feat, or any size reduction of one size. Anything Goes: Any +1 size or -1 size as a feat.

If i GMd sucha feat i would not let the reach stack with size increase btw.

Ya that's probably the best bet right there, and it shouldn't be hard to do, just takes some gold and a spellcaster who knows the spells. I'd say the DM would have to be UNCOOL not to allow it, as those spells are on the perma list.... I'm running around with a halfling sized elf right now, it's pretty cool.

Peregrine_Wolf 05-16-07, 01:11 PM	Ah.....halfling sized elf is what I was going for.....permanency....I'll try it. thnx all.

Hers a tip, don't let the party's dragon-kin with levels in war hulk using two full-blades(over sized bastard swords for you technical geeks) be enlarged and permanency'ed... Huge damage potential... But a poor will save... Dominate monster anyone? *Evil grin*
