Okay, I've been digging around the whole darn Race Builder looking for guidelines to update my homebrew race (which is sorta based off the minotaur), but there are two problems that I've come across on the way. Two important racials I want to use seem to be missing from the actual book.
1. I can't find the Minotaur's Natural Cunning ability anywhere, nor did I find the RP cost of said ability.
2. I'm still not sure if 6 RP is too much for the Powerful Build racial that may or may not be familiar to some people. In Pathfinder, it gives is a +1 to CMD (not very impressive) and the ability to wield large weapons without penalty (some Tiefling variant racial gives this too) and the target with the racial is treated as Large for the purposes of stuff like Swallow Whole (semi-useful, but rather situational). The Psionic Unleashed section of the SRD has the Half-Giant, and they have this racial.
For the first part, I just want to know if I missed this or is it really not there. As for the second, just wanting to hear your thoughts on the matter.
Anyone?
Well for Powerful Build, I'd say 6 RP if its a standard ability, 4 RP for advanced (just my guess). For Natural Cunning, *shrugs*. Sorry I can't be of help on that one.
**Natural Cunning (Ex) Although minotaurs are not especially intelligent, they possess innate cunning and logical ability. This gives them immunity to maze spells and prevents them from ever becoming lost. Further, they are never caught flat-footed.**
Id say combo of 2 abilities. Static feat: Uncanny dodge [2rp]. and for the other i'd just modify the elven immunities[2rp](p222) to the above wording.

Powerful Build is not in the ARG because no creature in the PF game books presented by Paizo has it. The d20PFSRD is not run by Paizo. Psionics Unleashed is a 3pp therefore it is not in the ARG. However, I'd think of it as a monstrous trait and put it at 4rp. It's not too gamebreaking imo, just don't give it to every creature.

No worries, only one of my races get it.
Anyway, thanks for the tips guys, really appreciate it.
EDIT: Actually, my race has a nerfed version of the Natural Cunning ability, now that I checked it. They can be caught flat-footed, and they only get a +4 to the Intelligence check to get out of a Maze spell. They never become lost either, but that's more of a fluff ability than anything else really. Guess this puts them at a total of 18 RP now. Anyway, I'm off to make my racial archetypes for the race.
