In a race I am making, the player can increase two different ability scores by 1, although one of them has to be strength, constitution, or charisma. I figured out how to limit one to strength, constitution, and charisma, but how do I stop the ability score chosen in the 1st choice from appearing in the 2nd, as it does with half-elf?
You would have to make it as three different options: one where it’s +1Str and +1 of choice out of the other 5. Make another option for the Con, and a third for Cha. Might not be possible just yet though because they only have so many options for the combinations. (Technically there are I think over 700 potential combos, DDB currently only has the ones they use in the books.) You might have those choices available, you might not. I know they are improving stuff as I type this, I just don’t know what or how long it’ll take. 🤷♂️
