Introduction
The following links contain both mechanical information and information regarding each race's place in both the Forgotten Realms and Arelith.
Choosing A Subrace
Please do not type in your character's subrace during intial character creation. Upon logging in to Arelith with a new character, a setup dialog will open, allowing subrace selection.
Gifts can be picked to further the character customization.
The stats and abilities of the chosen of the subrace, if any is picked, are applied automatically.
Changes On Selection shows how a character's statistics will be altered when a subrace is applied. Use these modifiers to calculate your character's final statistics. The bonuses and penalties are not cumulative, the subrace replaces the previous bonuses. In some cases the secondary bonuses and special abilities may remain.
Example:
- Common dwarves (shield dwarves) have +2 Con, -2 Cha.
- Gold dwarves will normally start with +2 Con, -2 Dex.
- If a newly created dwarf with 14 Dex, 20 Con and 6 Cha takes the Gold Dwarf subrace...
- Then the stats will change to 12 Dex, 20 Con and 8 Cha.
The multiclass experience penalty has been removed from Arelith, making the racial favored class redundant.
