Is there any racial archtypes or rules or something that can have a Dwarf not have a -2 to Chr? I was looking at an Oracle with the Battle Mystery but the Dwarven -2 to Chr really hurts... especially since my highest roll is 15 (which means a 13... not horrible but still)
If not I was thinking of asking the DM if I could take away the +2 Wis and -2 Chr and just keep the +2 to Con.. since Dwarves are hardy..
I really want to play a Dwarven Battle Oracle (its a backup character) instead of the normal Dwarven Cleric everyone plays...
RAW there are no archetypes or rules to change the attribute modifiers that you get as a dwarf.
A friendly DM should be willing to houserule something though.
Gold dwarves in Faerun had +2 Con and -2 Dex in the 3.5 edition.

If you refer to the race building guide here...
"negate -2 worth of racial stat penalty" = 4 points
So you would have to sacrifice 4 points of abilities. Try these:
Darkvision = 2 points
+2 Appraise = 1 point
+4 dodge versus giants = 1 point
So you're losing Darkvision, Defensive Training, & Greed to negate the -2 to charisma. Fluff-wise, you can explain this by saying that your character's family has lived on the surface for a couple generations, and you were raised with more tolerance.
Based on this explanation, dropping Hatred for Low-Light Vision might make sense. You'd be more tolerant, and I doubt you'd lose a racial darkvision in only a few generations.
