Gnomes are cunning and mischievous, ready with a hearty laugh and smarting prank on the unwary. Originally creatures of the feywild, they were both attracted by the needs of the wilderness of the mortal world and by their curiosity of the beings who dwell within in it. Gnomes are hard-working, but unlike the stoic dwarves, seek relief from boredom and monotony in their daily lives with song, laughter and joy. They enjoy simple pleasures between bouts of work, often seeking wealth or other treasures to enjoy for their work. Gnomish communities are organized into related, working clans who carry on the family business from generations past. Most gnomes are expected to carry on their ancestor’s work, but on occasion a gnome shows a knack for a new line of work, and may migrate to a new clan in the same or distant community to pick up a new trade. Wanderlust is common among younger gnomes, and is often the source of adventuring gnomes. Not yet tied down in the affairs of apprenticeship, these gnomes tend to wander to find their place in the world before settling down into a particular clan.

Dual Heritage: You can take feats that are either Orc or Human, as long as you meet all other prerequisites.

Half-orcs tend to come from two completely different outlooks. Among orcs, half-orcs tend to be smarter, though often not stronger. They are often bullied, but their cleverness tends to cause them to rise to positions of power among their brothers. Among human society, half-orcs tend to be pitied or looked down as less intelligent or brutish. Half-orcs among humans are often loners who use their brute strength to get what they want.

Krusk burns with the inner rage of his orc blood, but knows that his own tribe's wicked acts was what brought their downfall. He thus fights on the side of light, unleashing his naked fury on those deserving of his wrath. Gorkan One-Eye is a half-orc cleric devoted to Kord, god of strength. A former worshipper of the orcish god Gruumsh, he switched his alliegence after being bested in a wrestling match by a cleric of Kord.

He has come to realize that while one person can have amazing strength, the strength that comes from numbers is even far more impressive, and has joined forces with a wandering band of adventurers to allow him to take on even more impressive opponents.

Half-orcs strongly resemble humans, with enlarged incisors and a faint green or brown tint to their skin.

Creating A Druid Druids depend on Wisdom for most of their abilities or Strength when shapeshifting. Constitution is also useful, since it helps them stand up to damage. The three builds presented here are the feral warrior druid, the master of rites druid and the nature’s protector druid.

Feral Warrior Druid Your focus is Strength, and you’ll often choose to remain in your Offensive wild shape form just in case. Constitution helps if you're going to get hit sometimes while Wisdom is only important for spreading focus. ♦ Suggested Feat: Weapon Focus: Unarmed (Human feat: Action Surge) ♦ Suggested Skills: Athletics, Endurance, Nature, and Stealth ♦ Suggested At-will Powers: Tear, Rake ♦ Suggested Encounter Power: Pack Tactics ♦ Suggested Daily Power: Rend

You focus primarily on Wisdom. Constitution is often your second choice. Strength is not important unless you want to have a back up in case magic becomes ineffective. ♦ Suggested Feat: Ritual Caster (Human feat: Human Perseverence) ♦ Suggested Skills: Heal, History, Nature, Religion ♦ Suggested At-will Powers: Overheat, Thorns ♦ Suggested Encounter Power: Chill, Magic Stones ♦ Suggested Daily Power: Shillelagh

Strength often compliments the other two well since it helps with most of your attacks while in wild shape. ♦ Suggested Feat: Toughness (Human feat: Combat Reflexes) ♦ Suggested Skills: Nature, Endurance, Athletics, Perception ♦ Suggested At-will Powers: Tear, Stomp ♦ Suggested Encounter Power: Pounce ♦ Suggested Daily Power: Nip at the Heels

Druid Class Features Animal Companion Your animal companion is an animal or beast that accompanies you on your travels.

When you gain an increase to ability scores, your animal companion likewise gains an increase in ability scores. You do not have to increase the same ability scores on your animal companion that you increase on your character. • You and your animal companion share the same hit point pool. If you or your animal companion are targeted by an attack, any hit points lost come from the same source. If both you and your animal companion are affected by the same attack from the same source, you only take damage once from the attack, not twice. • You and your animal companion share actions in a round. Fortunately, your animal companion has a Standard action of its own, and you can grant it a Move or Minor action from your own pool of actions. Your animal companion cannot spend action points. • When you use or are affected by a power that has a target of personal, it also benefits your animal companion. An animal companion has its own basic attack, and can use any of your powers that have a Companion keyword in them.

Animal Companion Basic Attack Class Feature Your animal companion bites, claws, kicks or otherwise strikes at your foe. At-Will Primal, Companion Standard Action Melee 1 Target: One creature Attack: Strength vs. AC or Dexterity vs. AC Damage: 1d6 + Dexterity Modifier Increase to 2d6 + Dexterity modifier at 21st level. Special: This power counts as a melee basic attack. When a power allows your animal companion to make a melee or unarmed basic attack, the animal companion can use this power.

Favored Form Druids operate in a variety of ways. Some druids rely on their wild shape to protect allies and nature alike; while others rely on the advantages it brings when combating enemies. There are some druids who only shapechange as a last resort. These druids, instead, focus on their magical talents and their connection to Primordial Chaos or the Feywild. Choose one of the following options. Feral Warrior: When shapechanged, you gain a +2 bonus to damage you deal with melee attacks. When shapechanged, your AC is 13 + Wisdom or Dexterity modifier. Increase this to AC 14 + Wisdom th or Dexterity modifier at 16 level and 15 + Wisdom or Dexterity modifier at 30th level. Master of Rites: Pick one additional 1st level, nonshapechange encounter power. You can exchange that power like you would any other. When shapechanged, your AC is 10 + Wisdom or Dexterity

modifier. Increase this to AC 11 + Wisdom or Dexterity modifier at 16th level and 12 + Wisdom or Dexterity modifier at 30th level. Nature’s Protector: You gain +3 starting HP and +1 HP per level. When shapechanged, your AC is 16. Increase this AC to 19 at 16th level and to AC 22 at 30th level.

Ritual Casting You gain the Ritual Caster feat as a bonus feat, allowing you to use magical rituals. You possess a ritual book, and it contains two rituals you have mastered: Animal Messenger and one other 1st-level ritual of your choice.

Shapechange Druids have an unusual bond to the natural world, allowing them to take the shape of a myriad of animals. As a druid increases in level, he gains the ability to strengthen and modify his ability to change shape.

Stride You have Terrain Walk of the type of your choice. Choose between Earth Walk, Forest Walk, Ice Walk and Swamp Walk. • Earth Walk: You treat boulders and other difficult stony terrain as clear.

Druids and Deities Unlike clerics, druids tend and worship the primordial forces that spawned the world. As a druid, the primordials do not directly grant you powers. Instead, your knowledge of the secrets of the natural world grant you the ability to wield primal powers. Druids usually congregate into sects where the secrets to these abilities are taught to its members, but in rare cases hermits or otherwise reclusive individuals stumble onto the secrets to wielding these great powers. What you do with your powers once you have learned the secrets of the natural world is up to you, though if you flagrantly abuse them, members of your sect or another sect – or the primordial forces themselves – may move against you.

Unless commanded by the druid, which is normally a standard action, the monster continues its attack against the last foe it was directed to attack, using its basic attack mode. A druid must use a standard action to command a monster he has summoned to use a special attack. If a monster’s target is reduced to 0 hit points and it has not been commanded to attack another target, the summoned monster attempts to move to end adjacent to the druid, awaiting more orders. A summoned monster lasts until dropped to 0 hit points, the encounter ends or 5 minutes pass.

Druid Powers

Implement Druids make use of mistletoe for many of their primal powers. A druid wearing or holding enchanted mistletoe can add its enhancement bonus to the attack rolls and damage rolls of druid powers, as well as druid paragon path powers, that have the implement keyword. Without mistletoe, a druid can still use his powers, but he or she doesn’t gain the bonus provided by the enchanted implement. An Athame, a special magical dagger also known as a Pact Blade, can also be used as Implement for druid powers, as well as druid paragon poers. These daggers are often give to respected members of a druid’s circle.

Summoned Monsters The druid has several abilities that lets him summon monsters to aid him in combat. The following rules apply to all summoned monsters. • You may only have one summoned creature in existance. If you summon another creature while you have one in existance, the first creature instantly fades from existance. • The monster activates on the druid’s turn. The monster’s turn starts when the druid’s turn starts, so it takes any ongoing damage, regenerates and so forth at the same time as the druid. Likewise, the monster’s turn ends when the druid’s turn ends, so it makes any saving throws • The monster has a Standard action, Move action and Minor action each turn. Unlike an animal companion, it cannot use any of the druid’s powers and has its own pool of hit points. The summoned monster can make opportunity attacks. • The monster can act in the turn it is summoned. As part of the summoning, the druid can command it to attack a target of his choice. The monster’s appearance does not cause surprise. • The monster cannot use Action Points or use a Second Wind.

Your druid powers are called appeals. Some are better for the shapeshifter druid and some are better for the controlling druid, but a druid can choose any power when making a class selection.

Class Features The druid has two class features that act like powers, shapechange and an animal shape basic attack.

Shapechange Class Feature You form melts and shifts, and in a blink of an eye you have become a savage animal. Encounter Primal, Polymorph, Shapechange, Stance Minor Action Personal Effect: You take on the appearance of an animal of small or medium size. While in this shape, the following rules apply. • You cannot use manufactured weapons or armor; these items meld into your new shape and cannot be accessed until you change back. • You use your Animal Shape Basic attack to perform your own attacks while in animal form. • You cannot activate any item’s special ability that requires anything more than a free action to activate. • Your AC becomes 13 + Dexterity or Intelligence modifier. • Upon taking animal shape, you can spend a healing surge. This does not count against your ability to use a Second Wind. • While in animal form, you can use any power or ability with the Shapechange keyword. You cannot us a power or ability that does not have the shapechange keyword while shapechanged. • You can change back to your normal form as a Minor Action, ending the use of this ability for the encounter. Shapechange lasts until you are unconscious, are dying or until you choose to change back to your normal form.

4E Races and Classes Arcane Implement Mastery

Enchanter

You specialize in powers that make your enemies into puppets and tools for your own use.

You specialize in the use of one kind of implement to gain additional abilities when you wield it. Choose one of the following forms of implement mastery. Orb of Imposition: Once per encounter as a free action, you can use your orb to gain one of the following two effects. You can designate one creature you have cast a wizard spell upon that has an effect that lasts until the subject succeeds on a saving throw. That creature takes a penalty to its saving throws against that effect equal to your Wisdom modifier. Alternatively, you can choose to extend the duration of an effect created by a wizard at-will spell (such as cloud of daggers or ray of frost) that would otherwise end at the end of your current turn. The effect instead ends at the end of your next turn. You must wield an orb to use this ability. Control wizards select this form of mastery because it helps extend the duration of their control effects. Staff of Defense: A staff of defense grants you a +1 bonus to AC. In addition, once per encounter as an immediate interrupt, you gain a bonus to defense against one attack equal to your Constitution modifier. You can declare the bonus after the Dungeon Master has already told you the damage total. You must wield your staff to benefit from these features. This form of mastery is useful for all wizards, particularly if you dabble in both control and damage-dealing spells. Wand of Accuracy: Once per encounter as a free action, you gain a bonus to a single attack roll equal to your Dexterity modifier. You must wield your wand to benefit from this feature. This form of mastery is good for war wizards because it helps increase their accuracy with damaging powers.

Implements

Master of Charms

Wizards make use of orbs, staffs, and wands to help channel and direct their arcane powers. Every wizard has mastery of one type of implement (see “Class Features”). Without an implement, a wizard can still use his or her powers. A wizard wielding a magic orb, staff, or wand can add its enhancement bonus to the attack rolls and the damage rolls of wizard powers, as well as wizard paragon path powers, that have the implement keyword.

Wizard Class Features You have the following class features.

Any spell you use with the Charm keyword you can choose to sustain as a minor action. When sustained, you can continue to control the target’s actions as indicated by the power, though you do not cause additional damage when you do so. The target can end the charm with a successful saving throw.

After an extended rest, you can prepare a number of daily and utility spells according to what you can cast per day for your level. You can’t prepare the same spell twice. If you replace a spell because of gaining a level or through retraining, the previous spell vanishes from your spellbook and is replaced by the new spell. Capacity: A typical spellbook has 128 pages. Each spell takes up 1 page. A ritual takes up a number of pages equal to its level.

Monks tend to learn specific combat styles, often based on legendary figures or on the observed motions and perceived supernatural abilities of animals, such as Crane Style, Tiger Style or even Seven Drunken Monkey Style. Also, many of the individual powers listed here are renamed under certain styles with various evocative names. For example, under the Tiger Style, Springing Strike might be known as Tiger Takes A Leap. While the names of the styles are myriad in nature, they can be broken down into one of three styles and provides a special stance daily power to the monk, in addition to his normal list of powers. Balanced Style: This style relies on a mix of powerful attacks and moves designed to disable or avoid an opponent’s counterattack. A character with the balanced style gains the Balanced Stance class power.

Creating A Monk Offensive Monk To master your body, you must push it to the limit, and there is no greater push than that obtained in the struggle of life and death. Your own body is more reliable and far more deadly than an ordinary weapon, and you do not hesitate to put it to work to prove your martial prowess is superior. You focus your chi to learn and perform maneuvers that directly assist your attacks, though an occasional chi stunt that puts you in a better position or wards an opponent’s attack is nothing to scoff at.

Defensive Monk You’ve been trained to use the enemy’s strength against him. An aggressive enemy is careless, and easy to take advantage of. You tend to only fight when you must, and have learned to focus your chi to perform to endure great hardships and perform other miraculous feats of the mind and body. Those who dwell on the fight are doomed to die in it, while those are prepared for combat and approach it with caution will survive to fulfill their life-long pursuits. You intend to be one of the latter.
