Wood Elf Alternate Racial Traits

Replaces Elven Paragons

Timeless Ancestral Memories

Much like the odd Ghorans, Treants, and other races of the forest, some wood elves are not only in possession of an innately massive lifespan, but are said to have been able to store their most important memories, knowledge, and recollections in their very bodies to pass onto their descendants.
Benefit: Treat all Knowledge skills as class skills

Secretive Socialite

Personable but secretive, many Elves are well-versed in the ways of the masquerade, and of wearing a 'face' to others while they hide their true nature beneath it. Sneaky but charismatic, they know when to talk and when to move unseen.
Benefit: You gain a +2 racial bonus on Diplomacy and Stealth skill checks

Ancient Elven Craftsmanship

Said to be amongst the greatest creators of natural beauty in the world, the Ancient Wood Elves were said to have carved the branches, boughs, houses, and stores of their forest cities from the very trees themselves, with naught but willpower. Some elves today are evidence these rumors are fact, and find themselves able to shape the wood of their forest as easily as they breathe. Such wood elves frequently pursue the arts, using their gifts to create amazing sculptures, works of art, and countless other inventions and creations
Benefit: The chance for failure of moving parts in the Wood Shape Spell is reduced to 15%. Gain +4 to a Craft skill of your choice.

Replaces Plantsight

Farsight Eyes

Their eyes infused with magical power, these Elves are so perceptive that their eyes can let them gaze at distant objects as if they were right beside them, their divination spells more powerful and potent.
Benefit: Gain +1 to the DCs of any Divination spell you cast. Reduce the penalty to perception from distance by half.

Urbanite

Having grown up in cities or civilized areas, some Elves are simply more accustomed to life in the streets and on paved roads than they are in the forest.
Benefit: You gain a +4 bonus on initiative checks and Knowledge (geography), Perception, Stealth, and Survival skill checks when you are in the Urban terrain

Replaces Master Archers

Thrown Weapon Mastery

Focusing their training on thrown weapons rather than bows and arrows, these Forest Elves are masters of the thrown weapon and can use their mystical mastery to alter the trajectory of such weapons in flight
Benefit: Double the range increment for thrown weapons. You can alter their trajectory of a thrown weapon while in flight once per round allowing you to curve projectiles around corners, ignoring the penalty to from cover and hitting enemies you do not have vision on (you still suffer miss chance from concealment for doing so).

Replaces Master Archers and Weapon Familiarity

Fleet-footed

As fast as lightning and twice as reactive, these Wood Elves are so incredibly nimble and light of foot that others of their kin cannot hope to match their speed.
Benefit: You gain Run and Fleet as a bonus feats and gain a +2 trait bonus on initiative checks

Acrobatic Savant

Their nimbleness and deftness the stuff of legend, the Forest Elves are so nimble on their feet that they can not only hop from tree branch to tree branch across great distances, but leap across their foes like stepping stones, using their faces and bodies as launching platforms to move themselves around the battlefield.
Benefit: The DCs for both high and long jumps only go up by 1 for every foot you jump. You gain a +2 racial bonus to acrobatics that increases to +5 on acrobatics checks to move through threatened squares.
