Races

An introduction of the most common player races. Introducing all special abilities they might have.
Some of the creatures mentioned come with examples. In a few cases the special qualities vary those are then put into the examples.

Human

Since most players should know about the abilities of humans, I picked this race for setting the standard and point out differences to this race.

Elf

Shorter than humans of slender build with pinty ears. Most elves prefer living in the woods.
They have better eyesight and hearing than average humans, even low-ligt vision. But their eye-sight isn't as keen that it would require the special quality acute senses.

Halfling

They look mostly like halfsized humans.
Special qualities include str-1 and dex+1. (And so a special quality of 0 points)

Dwarf

Dwarfs are about 4' tall and prefer living underground.
Special qualities include: str+1, con +1, will+1 and darkvision(special quality 2)

Goblin

Goblins are about 3' tall with reddish skin.
Special qualities include str -1 and darkvision (special quality 0)

Orc

Orcs are between 6' and 7' tall with grayish skin.
Special qualities include str+1 and darkvision. (Special quality 1)

Vampire

Vampires create spawn by infecting fresh bodies. Normaly their bite is the reason of death so the bodies look very much as during their lifetimes. A newborn vampire can access the memories of its new body and feels a certain obligation to its creator. Within a year it becomes a truly independent being with a will of its own, until then it does whatever its creator wants.
