Unrestricted PC Races

This section provides players with information on the many races available at Standing Trials. Each race has its own advantages and disadvantages so please make sure to read over the sections thoroughly. If you have not taken a look at the History of Idalos, it's highly recommended that all players read through the history for a better understanding of how these races came to be and how they tie into the storyline. Each race has its own unique history which will impact their opinions on the other races, the general opinion of individuals as a member of this race, and also how they are viewed in different cities.
