Santa's Elves
The elves that labor in Santa's workshops are descendents of a group of elves that decided to help a human in his journey to spread joy to all those who did good in the world, especially the children. Eventually, their search for a suitable, secluded workshop led them to the North Pole, a place far from any prying eye. Seperated from their elf brethren, they slowly changed to suit their surroundings, until they only slightly resembled their ancestors.
Santa's Elf
Racial Features
+4 Dex, -2 Str These elves are nimble and quick, but not as strong as most.
Small: As small creatures, Santa's Elves gain a +1 size bonus to Armor Class, a +1 size bonus on attack rolls, and a +4 size bonus on Hide checks, but use smaller weapons than humans use, and their lifting and carrying limits are three-quarters of those of a Medium character. Living in the workshops for centuries, the elves slowly shrunk in size as their numbers increased.
Immunity to magic sleep effects, and a +2 racial saving throw bonus against enchantment spells or effects.
Low-Light Vision: An elf can see twice as far as a human in starlight, moonlight, torchlight, and similar conditions of poor illumination. She retains the ability to distinguish color and detail under these conditions.
+2 racial bonus on Listen, Search, and Spot checks. An elf who merely passes within 5 feet of a secret or concealed door is entitled to a Search check to notice it as if she were actively looking for it.
+4 Racial Bonues on Move Silently and Hide checks. Elves hone these talents to avoid being discovered by humans, so that their safe and continued existance at the North Pole is assured.
Santa's elves are immune to non-magical cold, and have DR/5 against magical cold
Automatic Languages-Elven, Common
Favored Class-Artificer
LA- +1 (?)
