Playable Races |
|
While there are many sentient races in the
known universe, not all are equally viable
as Player Characters in the typical Endless
campaign. However, sufficient options are
provided to ensure variety, and are described
in detail in seperate race entries. |

Race Entry Format |
|
Each race entry contains the following information: |
- Physical Description: How a nerdy human
would describe race’s physical characteristics
- Description: A brief description of the
race
- Galactic Disposition: The influence and
stature of the race on the galactic stage.
- Race Package Information: Game mechanics
applicable to members of the race in a Race
Package.

Race Advantage Matrix |
|
When building these races some considerations
were made as to elements that are emphasized
in the campaign, and the natural synergies
or affinities of each race that would allow
them to be exceptionally good at them. To
prevent any one race being too advantaged,
care was taken to ensure that each race
was predisposed to precisely two of these
elements. Further to prevent scenarios where
a particular race had an effective monopoly
on a key campaign element, each element
has two playable races that are predisposed
to be good at it. This is not to say one
race completely dominates another at anything,
but more to illustrate that some races have
an edge in certain areas.
