This rating refers to a substantially different version of the article, or concerns mentioned in it have already been addressed.If you're afraid of having your friends complain that it's too strong, well, instantly getting the third round of Detect Thoughts might be a bit on the extreme side, in tense potentially pre-combat situations. This should probably be compared to Gray Elves. The thing you did with the extra arms is remarkably sane, I think; I wonder how it works with gloves and rings. The racial traits section could be shorter, and the description sections could be longer. I'm curious as to how a race with the gender balance of a pride of lions ends up being matriarchal.

I don't agree with having all of the ability score bonuses on top of all the powers; I think dumping one in favor of the other (read: the powers should be kept at the expense of all the ability score changes, positive or negative). I also think the constant empathy still has a pretty good chance to shaft you (if your enemy has a bag of awakened rats, as it were), especially if you have to make a separate save for each suitably intelligent creature that dies, even in the same turn.

I like the fact that it offers out of combat abilities that won't break the game, but will certainly offer something new that other races don't.

Seriously. It's good now. Well, it needs some fluff text, but mechanically it is now sound. The fact it went from BIG NO to "hey not bad" brings it to Like status. Good job.

	Detect thoughts, 4 arms and trance. Also many other mental abilities without balance. Worse than before.

Teleport at will?

For a LA 0 race? Really? Really? --Leziad 10:12, 11 September 2012 (UTC)

Since it's improved so, I put on OldRating markers since it IS pretty different now. -- Eiji-kun 12:22, 12 September 2012 (UTC)

Yeah, it's a +1 now. Halian (talk) 03:26, 18 October 2013 (UTC)
