If anyone else wants to write a 3.5 version of the Wild Folk they're more than welcome, but for my part I'm not at all qualified to do so. Glad you’ve been enjoying the blog. :3

Its been a fascinating read and resource. I love Ruin Explorers (ever since the manga pages in the Japanese Dragon Magazine-i.e. Fujimi Dragon) and had a race inspired by Fam called Wilders (in one campaigns the Wilders replaced Halflings). Any chance of you making a 3.x variant of this information. 4E is not my (or my group's) thing. Keep up the great work, AD As a fan of rpgs, anime and TRPGs I first off want to thank you for this blog. Its been a fascinating read and resource.

A recent article just came out on DDi that might be worth looking at for the creation of feats. http://www.wizards.com/default.asp?x=dnd/drdd/20090119 Animal Senses seems much weaker to the Dragonborn equivalent that also throws in low lite vision.

Wild Speed would add +3 to your move and a +2 power bonus to AC against Attacks of Opportunity until the end of your next turn. This way, you can still be slowed during it, but it can also grant you 6 extra squares if you double move. Power bonuses tend to not stack, so the bonus to AOO wouldn't be overwhelming.

They should have another language, either a set one or players choice. Nature should automatically get added to their class skill choices. the power should be read as- Effect: Move up to an additional 3 squares this turn. An idea to add to the ability is "when this ability is activated, enemies take a -2 penalty to opportunity attacks." to separate it away from running and other generic movement deals.
