Core Race Modifications
Dwarves
Refer to the Basic Rulebook (Page 11), except:

Point each time you gain a level.”
Elves
Refer to the Basic Rulebook (Page 11), except:
Add “Fey Blood: Elves to not require sleep, instead
meditating for four hours a day to receive the same
benefits. Additionally, magic and spell-like abilities

Saurians
Refer to the Titansgrave Adventure Series Book
(Page 20), except:
Replace the second bullet point under “Playing a
Saurian” with “Pick one of the following ability
focuses: Intelligence (Arcane Lore) or Willpower
(Self-Discipline).”
Replace 9 on the “Saurian Benefits” table with
“Intelligence: (Military Lore).”
Add “Tough Scales: Your thick hide gives you 2
natural armor. This armor stacks with worn armor,
does not create an armor penalty, and doesn't cause
spell strain.”

Gnomes
Refer to the Basic Rulebook (Page 12), except:

Add “Master Tinkerer: Gnomes are especially

gifted in the art of tinkering. Gain the Intelligence
(Engineering) focus. If you are using this focus to

Replace “Add 1 to your Fighting ability” with “Add

2 points to any two of your ability scores. They must
be spent on separate abilities.”

Orcs
Refer to the Basic Rulebook (Page 14), except:

Add “Tough to Kill: Orcs are nigh impossible to

keep down. If your health would drop to 0, it instead
drops to 1. You may use this ability once per day.”

Blazes
Wizards, especially those of an eccentric persuasion, frequently
have difficulty finding assistants for their experiments. Aiding
or apprenticing a wizard at work ranges from tedious to deadly,
and once word of the conditions in a wizard's laboratory
spreads, volunteers become scarce.
Some wizards take matters into their own hands, sewing a cloth
skin, filling it with pure arcane energy over a period of time,
and conducting a ritual to breathe a spark of life into it. This
process is expensive and requires at least one animal sacrifice,
but the result is a tireless, obedient servant. These beings of
arcana and fabric adore their wizard masters, working day and
night to serve them.
These relationships are commonly short-lived, however. A
wizard deep in study can fall victim to magical mishaps, or
even die of old age, leaving their thrall wandering an empty
workshop in mourning. Eventually, boredom or curiosity will
get the better of the abandoned creature, pushing it outside,
into the world.
These freed servants are nicknamed “Blazes,” so called for the
flame-like plume of arcane energy bursting from the top of
their cloth skins. This plume mimics hair, and a blaze can
change its color and shape at will to express emotions,
intimidate foes, or just to entertain itself. The only other
openings in a blaze's skin are two holes forming eyes, behind
which magic burns brightly. Blazes are naive, curious, and
honest, forming loyal friendships rather quickly. They are
roughly human-sized, immortal, and incapable of reproduction.
Blaze Names
Blazes are technically genderless, but their creators
often sew their skin to mimic a specific gender or
race, naming them appropriately. A blaze will hold
on to their given name with nostalgia and pride.

Playing a Blaze
If you choose to play a blaze, modify your character
as follows:
• Pick one of the following ability focuses:
Intelligence (Arcane Lore) or Dexterity
(Acrobatics).
• Ghost Walk: You can choose to temporarily
leave your skin and become a cloud of glowing
arcane energy. This costs a Major action and
your cloth skin, along with any worn armor or
carried equipment, collapses into a pile. In this
form, you gain a fly speed of 10 + Dexterity,
and can fit through an opening as small as an
inch wide. You can only be damaged by
magical attacks, and cannot use any attack
actions. You may stay in this form for up to
three hours before you begin to decay, taking
10 points of damage per minute. Re-entering
your skin costs a major action.
• Fabric Flesh: You are bound to your cloth
skin. When another character performs a Heal
action on you, they must roll a Dexterity
(Crafting) check rather than an Intelligence
(Healing) check. In addition, when you are in
Ghost Walk form, a coup de grâce can be
performed on your empty skin, killing you
instantly.
• Your Speed is equal to 10 + Dexterity (minus
armor penalty if applicable).
• You can speak and read the Common Tongue.
Roll twice on the Blaze Benefits table for additional

Frost Men
Frost men are an extraordinary subspecies of human
who hail from the barbarian tribes of the harsh
northern wastes. Said to have originated in a single
male who appeared to a tribe of snow dwelling
savages, the frost men gene spread enough that there
are entire settlements of the odd people. They are
reclusive, due to the fear and suspicion with which
they are met in more civilized society. Referred to
by many as “Ice Demons,” they are misunderstood
and are, in most ways, perfectly human.
The most apparent peculiar qualities of frost men
and women are their signature blue-tinted skin and
blue-black hair. Their flesh is cold to the touch,
though hot blood flows in their veins, and they
radiate a gentle chill wherever they walk. All frost
men wear an eye-patch over their right eye.
The eye-patch conceals their more unusual
deformity, a crystal clear sphere of an eye, capable
of terrible power. When the eye is opened it
produces a column of freezing mist that shoots forth,
chilling anything it touches with a screeching,
cracking sound like glass cutting glass. This attack
can freeze an unprotected person solid, and earns
frost men both their mythical reputation and their
solitude. On rare occasions, frost men and women
leave their tribes to seek fortune in the world,
superstition be damned.

• You can speak and read the Common Tongue.

Gloamings
Gloamings are a rare race of subterranean, winged
humanoids. They stand three and a half to four feet tall,
with pale, almost translucent skin, catlike eyes, and
black, furry wings. Their eyes reflect dazzling metallic
colors in dim light or darkness, but look dull and gray in
sunlight. The pallid skin of a gloaming has the unusual
ability to emit light, and they are fond of tattooing
themselves in dark inks that causes their glow to produce
shadowy patterns. Gloamings in their natural habitats
tend to be naked, while those out and about in the world
adopt clothing as a means of fitting in. These diminutive
beings mature at around 150 years of age, and can live as
long as 800.
At a glance, most people confuse gloamings with some
sort of halfing-born tiefling. The truth is much more
mysterious. Neither angelic nor demonic, they are said to
be related to beings living in the lowest-most catacombs
of the world, more closely related to illithid and
beholders than halflings. Whatever their origin, they
roam the darkest and deepest caves, forming occasional
relationships and reproducing at an extremely slow rate.

• Bioluminescence: You can emit natural light,

Goblins
Goblins are small, mean-spirited humanoids that live
short lives full of violence and malice. Standing
around 3 feet tall, their skin tones are deep reds,
oranges, and yellows, with red or yellow eyes to
match. They have broad, flat noses, bat-like ears, and
huge mouths full of needle-shaped teeth. They’re
nimble and scrappy, with low hanging arms and flat
feet. They mature at age 14 and can live as long as 60
years, though the vast majority never make it that far.
Goblins live in clans that can have anywhere from 5 to
500 members, commonly in caves and hollows near
more civilized races they can steal and scavenge from.
These tribes are led by a Clan Boss, either the
strongest or smartest Goblin in the group. Underlings
are kept in line through false promises and bullying,
and goblins higher on the ladder can indulge in all the
selfishness and lewdness inherent to goblinkind.
Goblins will attack anyone if promised enough of a
reward, and are fiercely loyal to their tribe. They are
also cowardly, and will gladly sacrifice a peer rather
than themselves for the good of the group. Clan Bosses
try to give their tribes intimidating names, describing
acts of viciousness or boasting of past feats.
Most goblin adventurers are runts who grow weary of
constant beatings from their kin and are left behind as
they migrate. They value survival above all else, and
will adopt adventuring groups as their new clan,
occasionally even giving them a new clan name.

Klide
Resembling bipedal pterodactyls, klide make their homes
in mountaintop roost-cities. They have smooth, firm skin
punctuated with bony protrusions, and are born in a
variety of muted colors from moss green to pastel blue.
Their small, angular heads hide subtle features, ear-flaps,
slits for eyes, and a mouth whose seam is difficult to
discern unless it is open. Klide have clawed two-toed
feet, three-fingered hands, and large, leathery wings that
fold neatly onto their backs.

Klide Names
Telling klide males and females apart is nearly
impossible, even for the klide themselves, so they
have developed a naming system for differentiating
physiological gender. The suffix “-pa” is used for
males, “-va” for females, and “-ka” for unknowns.
Sex is extremely personal in klide society, and
asking about gender, or revealing the gender of
another without permission, is considered extremely
rude. Therefor, “-pa” and “-va” are reserved for
close friends and mates, while “-ka” is akin to a
formal title.

Tieflings
Tieflings are humans whose lineage is tainted with
infernal blood. Though demonic in appearance, they
bear no predisposition towards evil, and the vast
majority are born of two human parents. This fact is
lost on most other races, and all tieflings face racial
prejudice and subjugation of some sort or another.
Being on the fringes of society takes its toll, and
many tieflings turn to a life of crime purely as an act
of survival, inadvertently fulfilling the expectations
of their oppressors. Still others fight to change the
image society has of them through acts of altruism
and virtue.
Tieflings are human-sized, with human skin tones,
or less commonly, reds, oranges, and purples. The
most obvious differentiating feature of a tiefling is a
pair of demonic horns sprouting from her forehead,
which can twist upwards or curl backwards around
her head. Some tieflings also have long, non-
prehensile tails, pointed teeth, or solid black or white
eyes. The infernal features that present themselves
vary widely, but the more human a tiefling looks, the
less likely it is to be killed by its parents or the angry
mobs that all too often beat down their doors.
Tieflings mature and age at the same rate as humans.
They are shrewd and suspicious in social situations,
and agile and ferocious in a fight. The world has
taught them to be cynical, to expect that all
friendships end in betrayal or heartbreak. The trust
of a tiefling is extremely rare, and even more
valuable.

Treekin
Dryads are fey bound to trees, taking the form of
beautiful, mysterious, bark-skinned women. They
are woodland guardians who delight in tricking
outsiders wandering through their territories,
charming them and leading them to their deaths. On
rare occasions, particularly during the twilight hours,
dryads draw human men or male elves of particular
interest (or rare handsomeness) into romantic
engagements. The men wake at sunrise, lying nude
on the forest floor, with no memory of the previous
night and an embarrassing trek home.
Dryads who participate in gloaming-hour trysts with
mortals bear an unusual seed, which they
instinctively plant before abandoning to indulge a
curiosity or pursue an exciting new distraction. This
seed matures into an extraordinarily large bud,
which opens to reveal a brilliant flower. Lying inside
it is a green-skinned baby of recognizable humanity,
but distinct otherworldly features. With luck, a
traveler or a hunter making their way through the
woods will spot the bright flower and discover the
infant within, taking it into their care.
These children of the forest, colloquially referred to
as “Treekin,” often grow up in human or elven
settlements, garnering both suspicion and reverence
from their pure-blood peers. They are said to have
wooden bones, for as they age every place that bone
comes close to the skin (elbows, ribs, spine, etc)
grows patches of bark and even small twigs. Rather
than hair, they sport a covering of leaves, which
changes color in the autumn and, much to their
embarrassment, withers and falls off in the winter.
The type of leaves and bark they grow mimics the
species of tree their mother possessed, while the
color of their eyes always reflects that of their father.
Treekin are human-sized and can be born as male or
female, but they are all infertile. Many are named
after the tree their features reflect. They mature in
about 20 years and live to around 300. Though
mortal in almost every aspect, all treekin share a
love of the woods and an affinity for nature.

Undines
Undines are amphibious subspecies of humans whose
bloodlines are mixed with aquatic races, like merfolk,
water mephits, or marid. Each undine family is unique,
tracing their particular traits back to a common ancestor
species. Undine skin can be kelp-green to sky blue to
pale white, with many variations. They usually have
clear, blue eyes and webbed toes and fingers. The most
common trait among undines is their signature finned
ears. They live up to 300 years, and reach maturity
around age 25. Undines are capable of reproducing with
humans, but most prefer to partner with other undines to
preserve their unique attributes.

Undines form reclusive communities in hamlets near

bodies of water (or floating on top of them, given the
proper resources), feeding off fish and aquatic plants.
They are governed by a council of elders, and it is
common practice for undine children to be raised
communally by the entire village. Friendly towards
outside races, but ultimately suspicious of them, undines
prefer to keep to their own kind.

Undines are playful and affable around those they know

and trust, and stoic and quiet around strangers. They have
a particular affinity for gnomes, finding them endlessly
amusing. Undine adventurers are frequently those who
have been exiled from their villages for some reason, and
are looking to find acceptance and a new community.
