Hello.

I've been trying to create a race in which you can choose your ancestry, and then your ancestry grants two options to pick from. However, since ancestry is already an "option" I'm not sure how to add the second option. Optception.

Example: PC picks God-Tier Ancestry. God-Tier Ancestry grants access to either End Universe or Create Universe traits. Not both. How can I allow the PC to choose one or the other?

Thanks.

You would create a second trait with options that use the options from the first trait as prerequisites. Please see the Homebrew Subclasses & Species FAQ #1 for a detailed walkthrough on how to set that up: (https://www.dndbeyond.com/forums/dungeons-dragons-discussion/homebrew-house-rules/131411-a-homebrewers-how-to-faq).

I got it. Thanks! Is there no way to hide option 2 and have them appear in the builder after you choose option 1? Or are they always there as a blank option?

I’m not entirely sure I understand what you mean. I think maybe some terminology is getting mixed up somehow. The second trait will always be visible, but the Dropdown should be blank until a prerequisite Option is selected in the first trait.

Yeah, that answers it. Was hoping to hide the second trait until the prerequisite from the first trait was selected. It just seemed cleaner.

Ah, yeah, nah, no way to do that.

Hey, if you don’t mind would you please do me a small favor? If you found that FAQ helpful would you please vote in the poll attached to it? I’d really appreciate it.

Yeah, can do.

Thanks!! I appreciate it.
