Alea Iacta Est

These d20 house rules don't warrant their own pages.

Ability Scores

When checking prerequisites for feats and other purposes (especially epic ones), inherent and racial ability score bonuses count towards the ability score. No other kind (apart from the actual increase gained by advancement and the appropriate epic feats) does.

Favoured Classes

A human or half-elf may nominate as favoured class at each level the class most beneficial. This will usually be the highest or the lowest. He does not automatically have to choose the highest (as the normal rules state). For example, a human fighter 6/wizard 5/rogue 1 may name rogue as favoured, rather than fighter, since this will save him an experience penalty.

Natural Weapons

Characters with natural weapons are assumed to have the correct proficiency when it is required as a prerequisite to feats or prestige classes. Some weapons may be similar enough to benefit from these feats. For example, claw-style weapons will be included provided they do less damage than a martial weapon that the character can wield in one hand; a medium-sized character could wear claws doing d6 damage over the top of his own (which probably only do d4 or d6 anyway). Any more than this and the weapon is exotic, and requires separate proficiency.
