Category:Race
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.
To apply subrace statistic modifiers and special abilities, select the Gift of Subrace. Subrace characters without the Gift of Subrace will have default statistic modifiers and special abilities.
Other Gifts may be used in addition to, or in place of, the Gift of Subrace, to create different types of characters.
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.
- Example: If a Dwarf (Con +2, Cha -2) with statistics of Str:14, Dex:12, Con:14, Int:10, Wis:10, Cha:8 chooses the Gold Dwarf subrace (Dex -2, Cha +2), the following changes will be applied (Con -2, Dex -2, Cha +4) for statistics of Str:14, Dex:10, Con:12, Int:10, Wis:10, Cha:12.
