Humanoid (Elf) · 1 hex · SM +0 Half-Elf [Monsters on Automatic, SRD coverage: humanoid folk and their sub-races; answers Half-Elf (SRD 3.5)]

Human enough to live in a human town and elven enough that nobody there forgets it. Half-elves get a century and a half rather than a millennium, see well by starlight, hear the conversation at the next table, and are very hard to lie to. Most of them end up as the person two communities send to talk to each other.

Notes

  • GCS ancestry draft: gcs/half-elf.gct
  • Independent build total: 41 points of racial traits plus 20 points of racial skills.
  • Answers the SRD heading(s): Half-Elf (SRD 3.5). Only the creature identity is taken from the SRD; the GURPS statistics, ratings and prose are this project's own work and reproduce no SRD text.
  • Typical Stats, damage and ratings are derived from the racial template, not authored beside it, so the sheet and the stat block cannot disagree.
  • Body mass used to scale this build: 65 kg. ST, Size Modifier and DR are checked against it; see the gurps-animal-sanity-check skill for the bands.
  • Movement: ground Move 5 (primary). The published Move is the primary medium's cruising Move; sprint figures are stated here and not folded into it.
  • Treasure and grappling are not authored for this batch and ship as explicit nulls; `lair` carries a short habitat note, because where a wandering animal dens is an encounter fact rather than a loot one.
  • About 1.75 m standing, which is the SM 0 row.
  • ST 10: human, and the build says so.
  • Deliberately not built on the elf stock. A half-elf sleeps, ages in centuries rather than millennia, and hears and sees only partway towards what the elf traits buy — restating the partial inheritance is honest where inheriting the full set and subtracting would not be.

Description
Written by Dungeons on Automatic, released under cc_by_4_0
  • Independently authored GURPS build. The SRD supplies the creature identity this record answers to and nothing else: no SRD statistics, wording or presentation is reproduced, and no third-party GURPS conversion was used as an input.
  • Answers the SRD heading(s): Half-Elf (SRD 3.5).
  • Racial template: 41 points across 7 traits, plus 5 racial skill(s) worth 20 points.
  • Every trait is drawn from the project's controlled GURPS vocabulary in scripts/srd/trait-library.mjs, which carries the page reference and published cost for each entry.
  • sourceSystem is recorded as doa_fixture because that is the package contract's value for project-authored material; the SRD headings this record answers are in provenance.coversSourceIdentities.
  • Ratings are recomputed through the consumer CER path on every build, so a mechanics change cannot leave a stale rating behind.
