07-02-04, 10:07 PM can someone explain how paragon classes work? Does a paragon get the bonuses standard to whatever race in which they belong in addition to what ever the class gives?

Paragons are treated as favored classes in adition to the normal(s). And the special abilitys like from an Elfs +2dext -2Con would stay the same for a paragon. The human gets to boost 2 CASTER classes at 2nd and 3rd levels so that is treated like the prestige class abilitys of the same name

Hope that helped

07-04-04, 01:47 AM You can only take a paragon class if you are the same race, with noted exceptions for Half-elf and Half-orc Paragons. For example, only dwarves can be Dwarven Paragons. Only Drow can be Drow Paragons.

If you are asking if your original racial abilities disappear when you take a level of a Paragon class, then the answer is no. The paragon levels "stack." In fact, Paragon levels are pretty much treated like normal class levels (not racial HD). The only real difference is that there is a racial prerequisite for entrance.
