Race

There are dozens of different races in pathfinder which are all unique but for a beginner I'd recommend choosing from the core races listed below.

• Dwarf-Dwarves in Pathfinder are sturdy, hardy humanoids with a deep connection to the earth. Known for their craftsmanship, resilience, and love of ale, they excel in mining, combat, and engineering.



• Elf-Elves in Pathfinder are elegant, long-lived humanoids known for their grace, keen senses, affinity for nature, mastery of magic, and proficiency with bows. They possess pointed ears and are highly attuned to the world around them.



• Gnome-Gnomes in Pathfinder are small, whimsical humanoids known for their curiosity, mischievous nature, and affinity for illusions. They possess a knack for tinkering, arcane magic, and have a deep connection to the natural world.



• Half-Elf-Half-elves in Pathfinder are a hybrid race born from the union of elves and humans. They possess traits of both races, with heightened adaptability, charm, and the ability to bridge the gap between human and elven cultures.



• Half-Orc-Half-orcs in Pathfinder are a mixed-race resulting from the union of orcs and humans. They combine the physical strength and resilience of orcs with some human adaptability, often facing prejudice due to their heritage but excelling in combat-oriented roles.



• Halfling-Halflings in Pathfinder are small, nimble humanoids known for their love of adventure, luck, and affinity for stealth. They possess keen senses, adaptability, and a knack for surviving in diverse environments despite their diminutive stature.



• Human-Humans in Pathfinder are versatile and adaptable beings. They possess diverse cultures, talents, and ambitions, making them the most populous and influential race. Their ability to excel in various roles contributes to their prominence in the world.
