Forum:Racial Special Abilities

So, this isn't as much a vote as it is a discussion...but the results will be used to help create and shape policy, so your input does matter. The question has come up of what abilities certain characters get based on their race. So, using vampires as an example, can they teleport, turn into fog, turn into bats...etc. Obviously we want to stay as much in Harry Potter Canon as possible...but for some of these races....and half races...we really don't have a definative way to say "They have this and this". So, that's what we're looking to make. Each race will have their own section, and we want to hear what abilities you think they should have that are appropriate but not overpowered. That way in the future when someone makes one of these races, they will be able to look and see exactly what abilities they have. Also, if people make a approved half race (like a half-vampire) they would be able to pick 1 or two of the special abilities for their character. Each race will have it's own section, and if we have races on the wiki not on here, or that you would like to see added to the wiki feel free to add a section for them. One warning...if you add a race not currently on the wiki, the administration reserves the right to deny it being played for any reason (includig that we just don't want to come up with rules for it, or deal with it right now), but they still may be approved in the future. So, this discussion will last 2 weeks (until April 7th) and at that time this page will be locked, and the admins will take all the ideas put here and come up with a solid set of rules for these races.
