Racial level progressions for monster races.

The intent of this proposal is to allow the Level-Adjusted races in the SRD to be played as characters from 1st level by providing standardized "Monster Classes" for Living EnWorld. I'm not sure if this is desired for the flavor of Living EnWorld, but I'm always a fan of more options. This won't really work for monsters/templates that don't provide HD without some non-RAW fiddling, so I'd like to stick with monsters who have racial HD. If there is an interest in this, I can hammer out the Racial Progressions for each playable SRD Monster (each of which should be approved seperately).

The race's monster class must be completed before the character can multi-class.

The favored class for a Level-Adjusted monster is its monster class.

Monster Races (and associated classes) available for play:

None

Monster Races (and associated classes) proposed for play:

Pending Approval/Evaluation of initial proposal. Watch this space if the judges give the go-ahead.

As savage progression can be found on wizard website, are all those progression considered open source and avalaible for LEW? Do we want them?

Really? Well, if that's the case, it would be ideal. Could you provide a link to where these are on Wizards site?

While the progressions on the Wizards site are openly available, they are not open content.

As for the proposal itself... I don't think it fits very well into Living Enworld. We have one option that allows "monstrous" races while keeping them reasonably rare, and adding an option to make them more common doesn't seem right.

I actually kind of like this idea. LEW is shaping up to be a place with a wide variety of heros. Monsters might make an interesting addition.

My thoughts as well. Also, I've tended to notice that folks generally shy away from Level Adjusted critters with racial Hit Dice. I don't think there will be an overwhelming flood of monstrous adventurers, and I think the addition would be neat. I think Knight Otu is one judge, and we've heard from him. How about the rest of you judges out there?
