Racial Traits, Subraces and Monster Traits

I think it’s time we added these features as well. It wasn’t really logical to implement these earlier in the year, but things have changed now. These traits at their core work exactly the same way class features work, which are already implemented. It shouldn’t take any more effort for the game system to deal with these than it does for the class features.

Thus, I think that it’s an appropriate time for racial and monster traits to be added so that we can implement the different powers that races have, and the passive, inherent abilites monsters can have as opposed to their active attacks. Likewise, we might as well implement subraces as well when we are getting these features out of the way; better to just finish it all in one large sweep.

As a side note, I know that in the 2024 rules, races don’t give ability modifiers and that that functionality is swapped to backgrounds. But you should still give us the **option** to add ability modifiers for races. Not everyone plays by the 2024 rules, and not everyone is even playing by the rules of 5e strictly.
