The War against the Drow continues
This countess didn’t appreciate me yeeting a psychic grenade at her before she could monologue. Her warriors preceded to cast Darkness on the bridge we were at and she teleported with three Shadow Demons before taking me to full health to 0 (Though I stayed up thanks to Gift of the Protectors).
But unfortunately, she could not shake the Synaptic Static debuff and didn’t really accomplish much after that before trying to run. If not for the fact Dimension Door has a size limit (Which I hadn’t realized until my DM remembered), I’d have teleported over the giant kobold Rune Knight, but settled for bringing the Rogue over to finish her
alright that makes sense, thanks
also, i did not know elves could teleport
Eladrin do, they have a racial ability called Fey Step which lets them use a bonus action to teleport up to 30ft (With the added options I mentioned earlier). The only other elf race that gets a natural teleport ability is the Shadar-Kai (Elves tied to the Shadowfell and the Raven Queen), who can teleport as a bonus action and at higher levels gain resistance to all damage for a short time after.
Other Elven subraces don’t inherently have the ability to teleport but do have other abilities, usually some combination of Spellcasting, Weapon Proficiency or Supplemental Skills. The only other thing close to a racial teleport is High Elves can take a racial feat to get the Misty Step spell (Teleport 30ft) with one free cast per short/long rest
are those things that every player who gets the respective subrace gain automatically?
in pathfinder a heritage (subrace) will give you everything at first level, and any other ability will be chosen later.
for example a tunnelflood kobold will give you 15ft swim speed, and anything else from the ancestry (race) will come from feats instead of automatically gained
Pretty much, except for the racial feat I mentioned since it’s a feat.
In 5e, you tend to get your Racial ability stuff at character creation, save for some more powerful stuff that unlocks down the line. For instance, the Teleport abilities I mentioned for the Eladrin and Shadar-Kai are things they have out the gate, but the added effects of those teleports don’t come until a few levels later.
It’s the same for a few other races where they will have some starter thing that is improved later on (IE, Tieflings start with a set Cantrip and level 1 spell at the start, and at levels 3 and 5 get higher level racial spells, which are all determined by the circle of hell your bloodline is tied to), but most stuff is out the door from character creation
