| Species | Description | Speed | Size | Traits |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Dragonborn | Born of dragons, as their name proclaims, the dragonborn walk proudly through a world that greets them with fearful incomprehension. Shaped by draconic gods or the dragons themselves, dragonborn originally hatched from dragon eggs as a unique race, combining the best attributes of dragons and humanoids. | 30 ft. | Medium | Draconic Ancestry, Breath Weapon, Damage Resistance |
| Dwarf | Kingdoms rich in ancient grandeur, halls carved into the roots of mountains, the echoing of picks and hammers 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. | 25 ft. | Medium | Darkvision, Dwarven Resilience, Dwarven Combat Training, Tool Proficiency, Stonecunning |
| Elf | Elves are a magical people of otherworldly grace, living in the world but not entirely part of it. They live 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. | 30 ft. | Medium | Darkvision, Keen Senses, Fey Ancestry, Trance |
| Gnome | A gnome's energy and enthusiasm for living shines through every inch of his or her tiny body. Gnomes average slightly over 3 feet tall and weigh 40 to 45 pounds. Their tan or brown faces are usually adorned with broad smiles, and their bright eyes shine with excitement. | 25 ft. | Small | Darkvision, Gnome Cunning |
| Half-Elf | Walking in two worlds but truly belonging to neither, half-elves combine what some say are the best qualities of their elf and human parents: human curiosity, inventiveness, and ambition tempered by the refined senses, love of nature, and artistic tastes of the elves. | 30 ft. | Medium | Darkvision, Fey Ancestry, Skill Versatility |
| Half-Orc | Whether united under the leadership of a mighty warlock or having fought to a standstill after years of conflict, orc and human communities, sometimes form alliances. When these alliances are sealed by marriages, half-orcs are born. | 30 ft. | Medium | Darkvision, Menacing, Relentless Endurance, Savage Attacks |
| 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. | 25 ft. | Small | Lucky, Brave, Halfling Nimbleness |
| 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. | 30 ft. | Medium | Ability Score Increase, Extra Language |
| Tiefling | To be greeted with stares and whispers, to suffer violence and insult on the street, to see mistrust and fear in every eye: this is the lot of the tiefling. And to twist the knife, tieflings know that this is because a pact struck generations ago infused the essence of Asmodeus — overlord of the Nine Hells — into their bloodline. | 30 ft. | Medium | Darkvision, Hellish Resistance, Infernal Legacy |
