Homebrew Grippli for Feedback (5e)

[Petty Alchemy]

My group is working on a homebrew setting, and one of the races I've made prominent in the world is Grippli.

They were created by the deity of Community, Artifice, and Psychopomp, and for the most part, created to assist with the latter aspect.

The world has the aquatic niche filled by Merfolk and a variant of Lizardfolk, so that's not a focus for these Grippli. Their race is best known for spirit magic and martial arts.

They are for the most part using Kor stats (from the WotC Zendikar document). I've crossed out the abilities Kor have that they don't (also of note, they are 5ft slower than Kor due to their size), and listed the differences in this document.

My group has yet to review it, so I thought I might get some feedback on the crunch here first, and refine it to a more balanced version.

I like these versions. They seem specialized, metaphysical, and probably geared towards the campaign. I approve.

There's nothing wrong with these whatsoever, I just wish the Jungle Grippli had a touch of magic too. What if instead of the powerful leap it was gaining the druidcraft cantrip, and then the leap and maybe plant growth or enhance ability (honestly, I just want to give plant growth as much love as possible).

[Petty Alchemy]

So mechanically, they seem in line?

I do like the idea of giving Jungle Grippli some spells for symmetry, and Jump is a good one to get them that leaping distance (albeit less consistently).

[hiiamtom]

Absolutely, mechanically they seem in line. I was trying to be clear about that :)

Good to see some free 5e grippli stuff. ;)
