Ardouran

Physical Description: Ardourans are varied as the languages that exist in the multiverse. The most common thing to remember though is they appear more like there profession the longer they train. Many times they have been mistaken for another race, this has lead to many fights. As an example most blacksmiths with take on the colours of flame and metal the more skilled they become. Masters and experts in the field may have skin that appears like leftover coals or even hammered metal. However at a younger age they could be noticed as any old human, though some signs can indicate what the child will become by early signs of hair, eye, or skin colour change. A popular theory amongst Ardouran scholars is that most children are born already built in with what they will become. Though it can't be proven many instinces throughout history have seemed to point that way.

Racial Traits

 * Ability Score Racial Traits: Ardourans are versatile as they are stubborn and passionate. They start with a +2 bonus to one physical and one mental stat. As well they have a -2 to one other stat.
 * Stubborn: Ardourans know one hing if nothing else, how good they are their given trade. They know their skill and no one can sway them away from that type of thinking. As such they gain a +2 racial bonus on Will saving throws to resist spells and spell-like abilities of the enchantment (charm) and enchantment (compulsion) subschools. In addition, if a member of this race fails such a save, it receives another save 1 round later to prematurely end the effect (assuming the spell or spell-like ability has a duration greater than 1 round). This second save is made at the same DC as the first. If the member of the race has a similar ability from another source (such as a rogue's slippery mind class feature), it can only use one of these abilities per round, but can try the other on the second round if the first reroll ability fails.
 * Focused Study: Ardourans study hard and for all of their lives. They may vary from certain skills but they always excel at a specific handful. At 1st, 8th, and 16th level, members of this race gain Skill Focus in a skill of their choice as a bonus feat. As well in addition they may choose two skills that are considered class skills. Lastly they gain a bonus feat at first level.
