I'm planning a game set in a heavily eastern environment and I'm toying this concept since a lot of the players actually liked the idea of racial classes from back in the day and saw some of the ones made by Rite Publishing and Dreamscarred Press so they were asking about more theme appropriate options, and thus the notion of playing an Oni was brought up.
I've been thinking on it for a while, but newly working 3rd shift has drained me and got me pretty creatively bankrupt apparently because nothing I've been able to come up with seems to be balanced or able to properly give the right feel to it. I'm wondering if anyones had any success in creating a racial class that would allow players to be an Oni (link here for reference on them), more specifically the types like the "Yai" types. Or if not, what kind of things I might be able to focus on putting in or avoiding.
That does have some of the things I'm looking for actually, though it is a tad limited as far as it's scope on it.
