I created a subrace (along the lines of Dragon's Vamphyr (Dragon #371) called Shadowborn. In addition to related feats and swappable abilities, I also created the Shadowfell Adept (a Paragon Class).

I tried to make it balanced as I could but feedback regarding balance or the like is welcomed...and thank you to all who already provided me with feedback.

Regards,
Nick

Not to be a nitpicker, but you mispelled my name when you put the Lumiukko in. Perhaps when you next update you could could change it to Fedosu, instead of Feduso. Thanks in advance, I don't want to be a hassle.

This may be partially to single out my Vampire Spawn, but do you think a section for racial templates would be helpful? I personally don't know how many, if any, have been submitted to this thread, but it may help if there are more than one (I'm adding more by the way).

Well, a section for templates might be helpful, but I don't know if I'd have time to go through all of them; you may have noticed that I've been updating this thread less and less frequently, as I've been swamped with midterms and projects and such. If you went through and made up a list of templates in the OP, I might be able to do something about it.

Thanks to Wizardmon, we have an easy-to-use format for custom races that can save you the trouble of creating your own formatting. If you wish to use it, the template (with a few of my own modifications) is in the spoiler block at the end of this post for easy quoting and copy-pasting. If you want a program that will format everything for you, try the DM's Toolkit, courtesy of Leichenreiter and myself.
