Eberron->RQ2 conversion. Update Here!

Just made some small adjustments to some magic items: googles of nightvision, ring of protection and Cloak of Resistance.

"Googles of nightvision" That makes me giggle!

Lol, I think I spelled it correctly in the conversion.

"Too dark for you? These glasses will google what's there for you!"
 
By the way, I looked over the races again and stumbled on a few things:

Dwarves have size 1d6+4, just one point more than halflings, and actually goblins have 2d6+3 which is more than that. Why is this, Size is not just a value determining height IIRC. It also determines how much you weigh. Elves again, have an average of 3 points more in Size, yet it says they weigh around 40KGs. That's kindda weird for a guy who is pretty close to human SIZ. He weighs about half that of an average human. Gnomes are described as weighing around 20KGs and being less than 1 metre, yet they have a SIZ of 1d6+4. The same as a dwarf who is described as 1.30cm.
Since damage and HP is based so much on SIZ. This change has actually brought with it that the average dwarf is a worse fighter than a base human. This is IMO ridiculous.

Also, I can see no mechanical benefit of being human, and would thus suggest that their charisma gets increased by 6 instead of their adaptive rule. +6 Charisma gives all humans +1 to their improvement modifier. Which fits well with learning fast, and mastery of a wide variety of skills, charisma also fits well with humans being the largest race, and therefore they are the least likely to be suffered racial discrimination against.

Good points. I'll take a look at them.
