Category:Character Race

From EQ2i, the EverQuest II wiki

For Monster/NPC races, see Category:Race.

This category is only for the races that are available to players when making a character. Some character races can only be created in certain starting cities:

Qeynos	Kelethin	Freeport	Neriak	Gorowyn
Dwarf Froglok Halfling High Elf Wood Elf Barbarian Erudite Gnome Half Elf Human Kerra	Dwarf Fae Gnome Half Elf High Elf Wood Elf	Dark Elf Iksar Ogre Ratonga Troll Barbarian Erudite Gnome Half Elf Human Kerra	Arasai Dark Elf Iksar Ogre Ratonga Troll	Barbarian Erudite Gnome Half Elf Human Kerra Sarnak

Race has little bearing upon what your character is capable of, and gender has no effect at all.

• Each race has certain strengths and weaknesses in their starting attributes, but these strengths and weaknesses will be unimportant by the time you progress to the mid-levels.
• Each race gets certain innate abilities, and certain racial traits to choose from.
• Each race can choose any class that is available. Your alignment will restrict which classes are available to you (and your race may dictate your aligment). See: Race comparison
• A Race/Class - Attribute/Starting-City/Alignment - Comparison Chart is available here: Race/Class Comparison
