Legal Races

Legal Races For Play
While Cormyr itself does not specifically restrict any races for play, the Pathfinder Society ban list restricts a number of races outright and these races are therefore also restricted in Cormyr. There are also a number of races that are restricted for play in Pathfinder Society without the possession of a Chronicle sheet which opens the option, the likes of which do not exist in our campaign. Additionally, there are races which used to be restricted by boon, but have since been opened up, and furthermore, there are chapters of the advanced race guide which seem to be restricted altogether. It's a big mess.

This section is to make it clear.

The following races, and no others, are legal for play within Cormyr Living Campaign.

Common Races
These races are legal for all players at all times

Human

Dwarf

Elf

Gnome

Half-Elf

Halfling

Half-Orc

Wayang

Tengu (can RP as Kenku for in universe equivalent)

Ifrit

Oread

Sylph

Undine

Rare Races
These races are far less common in Corymr

To have a character with a rare race, a player must:


 * Have played a character from a common race to level 4
 * Have an approved backstory justifying their presence in Corymr

Aasimar

Catfolk (Tabaxi)

Dhampir

Gripplis1

Ratfolk1

Suli

Tiefling

Vishkanaya (can RP as halfblooded Yuan-Ti for in universe equivalent)

1These races do not really have a normal presence on Faerun. Please speak to a GM about ways to incorporate them into the world

Unlockable Rare Races
These races follow the same rules as rare races, but can only be unlocked by player actions in the campaign. Similarly, player actions can lock the race, preventing any new characters being created for one of these races (exisitng characters may continue to be played as per normal).

An example of a race being "unlocked" would be the PCs helping the Swampstriders, and forming an alliance with them. However, if relations were to deteriorate, the race would once more become locked.

Lizardfolk (Swampstriders)2 UNLOCKED

Goblin LOCKED

Kobold2 LOCKED

Orc2 LOCKED

2These races are not fully PFS vetted on AoN. GMs will vet the feats, alternate traits, feats, etc and and a finalized list will be added to the wiki
