# Chapter 1: Races

\pagebreakNum

# Common Races

\pagebreakNum

## Dwarf

Kingdoms rich in ancient grandeur, halls carved into 
\
the roots of mountains, the echoing of picks and ham-
\
mers in deep mines and blazing forges, a commitment 
\
to clan and tradition, and a burning hatred of goblins 
\
and orcs – these common threads unite all dwarves.

"Dwarves are creatures of stone, and like stone they change only in response to extremes. The dwarves of the many worlds share much in common, but never allow 
\
those similarities to blind you to their unique traits."

_~ Mordenkainen_

### Dwarf Traits
**Ability Score Increase.** Your Constitution score increases 
\
by 2. You then increase any other ability score of your choice by 1. You can't increase any ability above 20 using this trait.
\
**Size.** Your size is Medium.
\
**Speed.** Your base walking speed is 25 feet. You ignore the Strength requirement of heavy armor.
\
**Languages.** You can speak, read, and write Common and Dwarvish.
\
**Darkvision.** You can see in dim light within 60 feet of you as if it was bright light, and in darkness as if it were dim light. You can't discern color in darkness, only shades of gray.
\
**Dwarven Resilience.** You have resistance against poison damage, and advantage on saving throws against poison.
\
**Long Memory.** You have proficiency in the History skill.
\
**Stonecunning.** Whenever you make an ability check related to stonework, you are considered proficient in the skill and add twice your Proficiency Bonus to the roll.
\
**Subrace.** Choose one of the following subraces: hill dwarf or mountain dwarf. With your DM's permission, you can also choose duergar (gray dwarf).

#### Hill Dwarf
Hill dwarves are the most common variety of dwarves. They are the aloof, confident and sometimes proud subrace of dwarves, and known to be particularly stalwart warriors and shrewd traders. Hill dwarves favor earth tones in their clothing and prefer simple and functional garb. Their skin can be very dark, but it is always some shade of tan or brown, with their hair usually black, gray, or brown.
\
\
**Dwarven Toughness.** Your hit point maximum increases by 1 every time you gain a level, including 1st level.

#### Mountain Dwarf
Mountain dwarves are a breed of dwarves at home in the high peaks and rarified air of the rocky mountains. In many ways similar to their lowland cousins, mountain dwarves are slightly more reclusive and tend to focus on mining, forging, and crafts a bit more strongly – their closeness to the dwarven deity Moradin is said to be a cause of this. It is said that a mountain dwarf is born in armor, but this is likely just a mild exaggeration.
\
\
**Dwarven Might.** You gain a bonus to abilty checks, attack rolls, and saving throws that use Strength equal to half your Proficiency Bonus (rounded down).

\columnbreak

#### Duergar (Gray Dwarf)
Duergar, also known as gray dwarves 
\
or underdwarves, are a subterranean 
\
subrace of dwarves. They carve out an existence 
\
in the Underdark, often near volcanoes. Their kinship 
\
to other dwarven subraces could be compared to that of 
\
the drow to surface elves.
\
\
**Superior Darkvision.** Your darkvision has a range of 120 feet.
\
**Duergar Resilience.** You have advantage on saving throws against illusions and against being charmed or paralyzed.
\
**Sunlight Sensitivity.** You have disadvantage on attack rolls and Wisdom (Perception) checks that rely on sight when you, the target of your attack, or whatever you are trying to perceive is in direct sunlight.

## Elf
Elves are a magical people of otherworldly grace, living 
\
in places of ethereal beauty, in the midst of ancient forests or in silvery spires glittering with faerie light, where soft music drifts through the air and gentle fragrances waft on the breeze. Almost all elves worship the gods of the Seldarine, and elves are generally, though not always, good in nature.

Elves tend to make strong and uplifting friends. Most elves love simple joys such as dancing, singing, footraces, or contests of skill. They have a natural aversion to that which they see as uninteresting tasks and are fun-loving by nature. However, despite how unpleasant some things such as war could be, elves become grimly serious if a threat to their friends, family, or livelihood make such actions necessary.

### Elf Traits
**Ability Score Increase.** Your Dexterity score increases by 2. You then increase any other ability score of your choice by 1. You can't increase any ability above 20 using this trait.
\
**Size.**  Your size is Medium.
\
**Speed.** Your base walking speed is 30 feet.
\
**Languages.** You can speak, read, and write Common and Elvish.
\
**Darkvision.** You can see in dim light within 60 feet of you as if it was bright light, and in darkness as if it were dim light. You can't discern color in darkness, only shades of gray.
\
**Keen Senses.** You have proficiency in the Perception skill, and your Proficiency Bonus is doubled for all Wisdom (Perception) checks you make.
\
**Fey Ancestry.** You have advantage on saving throws against being charmed, and magic can't put you to sleep.
\
**Trance.** You don't need to sleep, and can instead meditate deeply in a semiconscious state for 4 hours a day. After resting in this way, you gain the benefits of a long rest.
\
**Subrace.** Choose one of the following subraces: high elf or wood elf. With your DM's permission, you can also choose drow (dark elf), sea elf, or eladrin.

\columnbreak

#### High Elf
The high elves are graceful warriors and wizards who originated from the realm of Faerie, also known as the Feywild. They live in the forests of the world and share an interest in the arcane arts. In many realms, there are two kinds of high elves. One type is haughty and reclusive, believing themselves to be superior to non-elves and even other elves. The other type is more common and more friendly, and often encountered among humans and other races.
\
\
**High Elf Magic.** You know one cantrip of your choice from the wizard spell list. Intelligence is your spellcasting ability for it.

#### Wood Elf
Wood elves, also known as copper elves, are the most populous of the elven races. They commonly feel that they are in harmony with their natural surroundings. Wood elves also see themselves as guardians of ancient forest homes, but unlike most elves, they did not view themselves as a people apart from the rest of Faerûn.
\
\
**Fleet of Foot.** Your base walking speed increases to 35 feet.
\
**Naturally Stealthy.** You have proficiency in the Stealth skill.

#### Drow (Dark Elf)
Drow, also known as dark elves, underelves, or the Dark Ones among orcs, are a dark-skinned sub-race of elves that predominantly lives in the Underdark. They are hated and feared due to their cruelty, though some non-evil and an even smaller number of good drow exist.
\
\
**Superior Darkvision.** Your darkvision has a range of 120 feet.
\
**Dark Elf Magic.** You know the _dancing lights_ cantrip. When you reach 3rd level, you learn the _faerie fire_ spell and can cast it once without expending a spell slot. When you reach 5th level, you learn the _darkness_ spell and can cast it once without expending a spell slot. You regain the ability to cast these spells in this way when you finish a long rest. Charisma is your spellcasting ability for these spells.
\
**Sunlight Sensitivity.** You have disadvantage on attack rolls and Wisdom (Perception) checks that rely on sight when you, the target of your attack, or whatever you are trying to perceive is in direct sunlight.

#### Sea Elf
Sea elves fell in love with the wild beauty of the ocean in the earliest days of the multiverse. While other elves traveled from realm to realm, the sea elves navigated the deepest currents and explored the waters across a hundred worlds. Today, they live in small, hidden communities in the ocean shallows and on the Elemental Plane of Water.
\
\
**Amphibious.** You can breathe air and water.
\
**Swimmer.** You have a swimming speed equal to your walking speed.

#### Eladrin
Eladrin are elves native to the Feywild, a realm of beauty, unpredictable emotion, and boundless magic. An eladrin is associated with one of the four seasons and has coloration reminiscent of that season, which can also affect the eladrin's mood.
Some eladrin remain associated with a particular season for their entire lives, whereas other eladrin transform, adopting characteristics of a new season. An eladrin might choose the season that is present in the world or perhaps the season that most closely matches the eladrin's current emotional state.

* **Autumn** is the season of peace and goodwill, when summer's harvest is shared with all.
* **Winter** is the season of contemplation and dolor, when the vibrant energy of the world slumbers.
* **Spring** is the season of cheerfulness and celebration, marked by merriment as winter's sorrow passes.
* **Summer** is the season of boldness and aggression, a time of unfettered energy.

\
**Seasonal Attunement.** You associate with one of the four seasons and show coloration reminiscent of that season, which may also affect your mood. When finishing a long rest, you can change which season you are in tune with.
\
**Fey Step.** You learn the _misty step_ spell and can cast it once without expending a spell slot. You regain the ability to cast this spell in this way when you finish a long rest. Charisma is your spellcasting ability for this spell.

\pagebreakNum

## Halfling
The comforts of home are the goals of most halflings’ lives: a place to settle in peace and quiet, far from marauding monsters and clashing armies; a blazing fire and a generous meal; fine drink and fine conversation. Though some halflings live out their days in remote agricultural communities, others form nomadic bands that travel constantly, lured by the open road and the wide horizon to discover the wonders of new lands and peoples.

### Halfling Traits
**Ability Score Increase.** You increase an ability score of your choice by 1, three times. You can't increase any single ability score by 3 or above 20 using this trait.
\
**Size.** Your size is Small.
\
**Speed.** Your base walking speed is 25 feet.
\
**Languages.** You can speak, read, and write Common and Halfling.

\
must use the new roll.
\
**Brave.** You have advantage on saving throws against being frightened.
\
**Halfling Nimbleness.** You can move through the space of any creature that is one size larger than you.
\
**Second Chance.** When a creature you can see hits you 
\
with an attack roll, you can use your reaction to force that creature to reroll. You can use this trait a number of times equal to your Proficiency Bonus, and you regain all expended uses when you finish a long rest.
\
**Subrace.** Choose one of the following subraces: lightfoot halfling or stout halfling.

> **Mumrik** by [Mischeviouslittleelf](https://www.deviantart.com/mischeviouslittleelf/art/Mumrik-501145328)

#### Lightfoot Halfling
Affable and pleasant, lightfoot halflings have spread farthest and thus are the most common variety. Lightfoots are more prone to wanderlust than other halflings, and often dwell alongside other races or take up a nomadic life.
\
\
**Extraordinarily Stealthy.** You have proficiency in the Stealth skill, and your Proficiency Bonus is doubled for all Dexterity (Stealth) checks you make. Additionally, you can attempt to hide when you are obscured by a creature that is only one size larger than you.

#### Stout Halfling
Stout halflings were moderately shorter and stockier than their lightfoot kin. There was very little that could upset most stouts or corrupt them. Their outlook on life stressed cooperation above all else, with one's skill in teamwork being among the most valued of behaviors in their lands.
\
\
**Stout Resilience.** You have resistance against poison damage, and advantage on saving throws against poison.

\pagebreakNum

## Human
In the reckonings of most worlds, humans are the youngest of the common races, late to arrive on the world scene and short-lived in comparison to dwarves, elves, and dragons. Perhaps it is because of their shorter lives that they strive to achieve as much as they can in the years they are given. Or maybe they feel they have something to prove to the elder races, and that's why they build their mighty empires on the foundation of conquest and trade. Whatever drives them, humans are the innovators, the achievers, and the pioneers of the worlds.
