So I solved the no tail problem for human with tail terror...


Rules Questions


Ok, so the tail terror feat strengthens existing tails, and humans don't have tails, so while they qualify with racial heritage, it doesn't give them anything. However:

Human Fighter X

1: Racial Heritage (Kitsune), Magical Tail (You grow an extra tail...)
3: Racial Heritage (Kobold)
5: Tail Terror

has a tail, so Tail Terror works. What happens when:

7: Magical Tail
9: Magical Tail
11: Magical Tail
13: Magical Tail
15: Magical Tail
17: Magical Tail
19: Magical Tail

Does he now have, as rules would indicate, have 8 "tail slots" for equipment?

How many legitimate attacks can you create with this?


Imagine if you had an item of continuous Enlarge Tail (Reach 5 +1 to attack +2 to damage with your tail)

But it has a duration of 1/level which the rules don't seem to have a special modifier for


Good luck taking racial heritage twice.

Personally, I roleplay Racial Heritage as being half-[selected race]. If it's of a smaller race, the PC is closer to 4 feet tall. If there's any racial feats that dictate physical features, that character must be described as having those features. Either that, or the player must roleplay their sudden and horrific mutation, such as spontaneously growing a tail, becoming covered in scales, or growing wings. Makes things interesting while keeping the character out of making ghost-attacks or only benefiting from the positive aspects of those feats.

If a character has the same feat more than once, its benefits do not stack unless indicated otherwise in the description.

Benefit: Choose another humanoid race. You count as both human and that race for any effects related to race.

You can't stack the benefits of racial heritage, so you can't get two racial heritages at the same time.


However, it seems a kitsune could take adopted (human), racial heritage (kobold) and qualify for tail terror.


Some humans have tails. Just play a Jason Alexander expy and go racial heritage kobold :)

Adopted doesn't work that way.
