In the Subraces Section it states:

"The system first removes your NWN base race bonuses, then adds Amia subrace bonuses. In other words, the character will be reduced to a human stat-wise. All bonuses you saw in creation screen are nulled, and the final bonuses are the ones you can read from the table below."

So therefore, if I were to create a Halfling with a Tiefling Subrace, would it lose all of its size bonuses/penalties; and if so, is there a way to create such a character without said loss? It would seem to defeat the purpose of being a Halfling if, once you take a Universal Subrace, you are no longer considered a Small character.

If you made a hafling tiefling:


You would retain:
Skill affinity (move silently): +2 racial bonus to move silently checks.
Skill affinity (listen): +2 racial bonus to listen checks.
Lucky: +1 luck bonus to all saving throws.
Fearless: +2 morale bonus to saving throws against spells and effects of the fear subtype.
Good aim: +1 racial bonus to attack rolls made with throwing weapons.
Small stature: Halflings are small creatures, giving them some benefits and drawbacks.
+1 size modifier to attack rolls.
+1 size modifier to AC.
+4 size bonus to standard stealth and detection checks (modifies hide, listen, move silently, and spot).
Cannot use tower shields.
Cannot use large weapons.
Choosing a package other than the default (at character creation) may give a halfling equipment or feats they cannot use.


You would lose:
Halfling ability adjustments: +2 Dex, -2 Str


You would gain:
Racial traits: +2 Dexterity, +2 Intelligence, -2 Charisma, +2 Bluff, Hide, Bonus Feat: Darkvision, Spell-Like Ability: Darkness, 5/- Resistance to Acid, Fire, Electricity, Racial Change: Outsider
Favored Class: Rogue
Recognized Keywords: tiefling
Level Adjustment: +1
