Races
These are the currently existing and playable Races in Dorth. Below is the table of the races; the complexity on how difficult it is to utilize their traits; a general idea of their playstyle in terms of their abilities; and how they fair in combat.
DM Note: the complexity, combat-oriented, ability playstyle parts of the table is my opinion to help you choose the "right race" to play. Do not let it discourage you from playing the race you want to play!
