Neverwinter Nights defines seven races for players to choose from: dwarf, elf, gnome, half-elf, half-orc, halfling and human. Each race comes with special abilities that help define it and contribute to its roleplaying style.
Narfell expands on this selection by adding custom subraces.
A subrace can be selected by choosing a base race during character creation, followed by clicking on the subrace button then manually entering the name of the subrace.
The following subraces are permitted without application.
| Race | Base Race | Statistics |
|---|---|---|
| Gold Dwarf | Dwarf | +2 Con, -2 Dex |
| Sun Elf | Elf | +2 Int, -2 Con |
| Wild Elf | Elf | +2 Dex, -2 Int |
| Wood Elf | Elf | +2 Str, +2 Dex, -2 Con, -2 Int, -2 Cha |
| Ghostwise Halfling | Halfling | Gain Speak without Sound (the ability to communicate telepathically). Lose Lucky |
| Strongheart Halfling | Halfling | Gain Weapon Finesse, lose Lucky |
Races and subraces other than those which appear here require a Special Race Application submitted to the DM team. You may under no circumstances play such a character without prior approval.
