Random Races, for the love of kobolds


Pathfinder First Edition General Discussion


I've posted a blog with a racial table over at tenletter. The idea is that you can use it to roll a random playable Pathfinder race.

Have a look, and comments are welcome!


Very neat! I rolled three times and came up with Dwarf (156), Gnome (458), and Half-Elf (570).

The creepy thing about all that is those are the races of the three most recent characters I've played over the last two years. Dwarf in 4ed, an ill fated gnome in PF, who was replaced four months ago by a Half-Elf.


hahaha - that is quite a coincidence you have there!

The table obviously heavily favors the core races, but there is still a pretty significant chance of "something" unusual cropping up. In the comments on the blog I mentioned that it may actually be a clever thing that you did there:

Roll 3 times, add "human" - and those are your character creation options.


Anybody have a comment? Not your scene? Or gimmicky but fun?


Not my scene, but maybe usable for reincarnate.

I think the drow noble should be removed, though.


Maybe. I thought putting it in as a 0.1% chance is fine.

The Exchange

I was actually looking for a "playable" races list with the location of each race. So I stole your list. Thanks for the work involved in this.
I would gank the drow wholesale as they are not truly a playable race in Golarion. As for the list I roled a few times and had some fun come up. It would be fun to break the list up by regions, then races.

Liberty's Edge

I got: Half-Orc, Halfling, Grippli.

Grippli. Love those guys.

There is some truth as well.
