Unearth Arcana - Revised Races & Resources

Preamble

Overview of New Race System

During character creation, you must choose your character’s Ancestry, which represents the physical form your character takes in the world, such as Human, Elf, Dwarf, Halfling and Gnome. Each Ancestry has a list of Ancestry Traits, which you can gain by spending Ancestry Points.

Ancestry Traits

Ancestry Traits give your character physiological properties or abilities based on your Ancestry. You can choose various combinations of Ancestry Traits to customize your character to express the type of fantasy race you want to play.

Ancestry Points

Ancestry Points can be spent to gain Ancestry Traits. Most Traits cost between 1 and 3 Points, however, some Traits have a Point value of 0 or lower: Minor Traits and Negative Traits.

Gaining Ancestry Points

When first creating your character, you have 5 Ancestry Points. You gain 2 additional Ancestry Points when you reach Level 4, and again when you reach Level 7.

Types of Ancestry Traits

Each Ancestry has 4 kinds of Ancestry Traits.

Minor Ancestry Traits

These Traits cost 0 Ancestry Points and provide minor benefits that are respective of each Ancestry’s unique abilities and origins. You can only choose 1 Minor Trait.

Negative Ancestry Traits

These are Traits that have a negative Point value due to a penalty it gives your Character. These give you additional Ancestry Points equal to the negative value of the Trait.

Example: If you choose the Negative Trait Reckless (-1), then you would gain the Trait (which reduces your PD by 1) and also gain 1 Ancestry Point (since the value of the Trait is worth -1). After this, you would technically have 6 total Ancestry Points to spend, but you would still end with a total of 5 (6 -1).

Default Ancestry Traits

These are a set of pre-defined Ancestry Traits that are worth a total 5 Ancestry Points. These include a Minor Trait and may also include a Negative Trait.

DC Tip: This is perfect for new players! They can just say, “I want to be an Elf,” and get the pre-made list of the Elf Default Traits and be done with this step of Character Creation.

Expanded Ancestry Traits

These are optional Ancestry Traits that you can choose from to customize your Character’s Ancestry for either mechanical or flavor reasons.

DC Tip: Some groups or GMs might choose to ignore these Expanded Ancestry Traits to speed up character creation (for new groups or for one shots) or to give a consistent feel to all Ancestries.

Ancestry Origins

Ancestry Flavor vs Mechanics

Player Characters are unique in this aspect, and with so many options you’re able to create a wide variety of Ancestry Origins. You can customize them and make them your own, either for mechanical reasons or flavor/lore reasons.

Ancestry Flavor

This is where you can say what your Character looks like based on their Ancestry. Maybe you choose Dwarf and Elf for your 2 Ancestries. Now you get to decide how they look, which has nothing to do with game mechanics. Maybe you’re a tall slender elf with a huge beard, maybe you’re a thick stocky dwarf with smooth hairless skin and pointy ears, or maybe you look completely like a Dwarf and all of those “Elven Traits” are more recessive and aren’t represented visually. You might have the EYES of an elf, but everything else looks Dwarvish.

DC Tip: Maybe you love the Mechanics of a Gnome, but you really want to play a Halfling. Talk to your GM about if it’s ok to completely separate the mechanics of your character from what you visually look like. Work together and brainstorm how your Halfling Character gained the mechanics of a Gnome (through magic, through practice, or etc.).

If you wanted to play a Dwarf that had a backstory of being from a long line of Dwarves, you totally can! Pick Dwarf and then ask yourself, “How else do I want to express my Character?” If you’re going to be a Cleric, then maybe look into the Angelborn Traits. If you want to play a brave Dwarf, then maybe look into the Halfling (they have a Halfling Bravery Trait). This doesn’t mean that you are that Ancestry, or that one of your parents were, it’s just a way to further express your character and let them have the Traits that best fit them.

DC Tip: If your ideal Dwarf possess Traits only included in the Giantborn Ancestry list, pick some of those Traits for your “Dwarf” so you can create the character you have in mind. You can describe your Mixed Ancestry character as being a specific kind of Dwarf or a Dwarf/Giantborn hybrid. You can express your Ancestry however you wish.

Ancestry Mechanics

This is where you choose your Ancestries based on the game mechanics of what Ancestry Traits they offer. Build out your character accordingly and then step back and see what your character would look like. I had a player make a character that just wanted to make a BIG Barbarian, so he chose Giantborn and Orc. I asked him what that looks like, and we talked about it and decided that he was going to be an “Ogre-born” which ended up being a really cool enhancement to his backstory... even though his choices were based on game mechanics.

Ancestry Appearance

The appearance of this new Ancestry is for the PC and GM to come up with together (also making sure it fits into the lore of the setting). The Ancestry could look similar to an already existing Ancestry but be magically different for other reasons. The Ancestry could be an entirely new species that you want to bring into the world, mixing and matching Traits around to get the exact right feel for your PC.

DC Tip: How I have always handled this is that the visual aspect of a character is completely up to the player, then the Ancestry Points take care of the “balance” and the mechanics of what that Ancestry can do.

Ancestry Lore & Flavor

Each Ancestry has unique biological and cultural pieces that can combine with Backgrounds to create very unique PCs.

This will be available at the release of the full game. The Beta is focused on the mechanics of the game, so the flavor and lore will be revealed in the future.

Ancestry Creation

Every character starts with the Base Ancestry Traits below, and their Ancestry gives them a list of additional Traits they can spend their 5 Ancestry Points on.

Base Ancestry Traits

Size: Your Size is Medium.

Speed: You have a Speed of 5 Spaces.

Creature Type: Your Creature Type is Humanoid.

Choose Your Ancestry

Pick 1 or 2 Ancestries to show where your character comes from, what they look like, or how they perform mechanically. This usually represents what Ancestry your character’s parents were. When you select an Ancestry, you gain access to its Ancestry Traits List (Default and Expanded).

Starting with 1 Ancestry

You gain access to its Ancestry List. You can choose a second Ancestry any time you gain additional Ancestry Points.

DC Tip: This does give you less options during Character Creation, but gives you more flexibility to choose a second Ancestry at a later time as the direction you take your character evolves.

Starting with 2 Ancestries

You gain access to both Ancestry Lists of each chosen Ancestry

DC Tip: This gives you more options during character creation, but somewhat less flexibility at higher levels when you gain additional Ancestry Points.

Spend Your Ancestry Points

You have 5 Ancestry Points to spend on any Ancestry Traits from among our Ancestry Trait Lists. Your Ancestry needs to have a total of 5 Ancestry Points worth of Traits (including negative Traits). You can choose multiple Negative Traits, but you can only choose 1 Minor Trait. You must spend all your Ancestry points during character creation (you can’t save them for later).

Gaining & Losing Negative Traits

You can’t gain more than 2 Ancestry Points total from your Negative Ancestry Traits. You can remove Negative Ancestry Traits at higher Levels by spending 1 Ancestry Point if their cost is (-1) or 2 Ancestry Points if their cost is (-2).

Duplicate Ancestry Traits

You can’t choose a Trait of the same name multiple times, unless it says otherwise.

Example: A PC chooses Dwarf and Giantborn as their 2 Ancestries. The Tough Ancestry Trait is available to both Ancestries. The PC could only choose the Tough Ancestry Trait once, even though it’s available to both Ancestries.

Ancestry Trait Requirements

If an Ancestry Trait has a requirement, such as a Level requirement, then you must meet that requirement to choose that Ancestry Trait.

Attribute & Mastery Increases

Certain Ancestry Traits grant increases to Attributes, Skills, and Trades. These Ancestry Traits can’t exceed the Attribute Limit, Skill Mastery Limit, or Trade Mastery Limit, unless they say otherwise.

Refunding Ancestry Traits

If you gain a Talent or Feature that grants you a benefit that’s identical to (or a better version of) an Ancestry Trait you have, you can choose to immediately replace that Ancestry Trait with 1 or more other Ancestry Traits available to you that are worth the same amount of Ancestry Points.

Example 1: A Dwarf with the Natural Combatant Ancestry Trait (grants Mastery with Heavy Armor and all Shields) uses their 2nd Level Talent to pick the Martial Expansion Talent (grants Mastery with all Weapons, Armors, and Shields), then the Dwarf would be refunded the Ancestry Points they spent to gain Natural Combatant and would need to immediately use those Points to gain a different Ancestry Trait available to them.

Example 2: If you have an Ancestry Trait that grants you Water Breathing and Swim Speed, then later you gain a Class Feature that ONLY grants a Swim Speed (but not Water Breathing), that would NOT count and you wouldn’t get any Ancestry Points refunded to you (you would keep both). If you later get another feature that ONLY grants Water Breathing, you could then get a refund for the Ancestry Trait since you would have other Features or Talents granting you the exact same (or better) abilities.

DC Tip: There might be a scenario where a Minor Trait is replaced by a Feature or Talent. In this case a GM could allow a Player to pick another Minor Trait from another Ancestry (if it would make sense for that PC).
