Drow Noble Question

[Nerdtothe3rd]

Alright so Drow Noble are a CR 1 without class levels. Now if a player wants to play a Drow Noble they suggest that they start at level 2, one level being an empty CR level. However, what if they want to take the Drow Noble but start at level 1. And they are gonna take the Young Template to reduce their CR -1.

Does this work?

I'd say GM call if you want to allow it. That said, I would recommend requiring him to spend his first level's xp to remove the young template.

He is fine being small in size. He considers his character to be a young elf or just super short. (It says immagine state or just a way to reduce the size of a being)
