Category:Character Race

             :''For Monster/NPC races, see [[:Category:Race]].''
This category is only for the races that are available to players when making a character.  Some character races can only be created in starting cities of matching alignment:

*Race has little bearing upon what your character is capable of, and gender has no effect at all.
* Each race has certain strengths and weaknesses in their starting attributes, but these strengths and weaknesses will be unimportant by the time you progress to the mid-levels.
* Each race gets certain innate abilities, and certain racial traits to choose from.
* Each race can choose any class that is available.  Your ''alignment'' will restrict which classes are available to you (and your race may dictate your aligment).  ''See: [[Race comparison]]''
* A Race/Class - Attribute/Starting-City/Alignment - Comparison Chart is available here: ''[[Race/Class Comparison]]''
