Reminder: Ability Score Increase (ASI) & Languages

Unless otherwise specified races gain the following ASI and languages:

  • Ability Score Increase: When determining your character’s ability scores, increase one of those scores by 2 and increase a different score by 1, or increase three different scores by 1. Follow this rule regardless of the method you use to determine the scores, such as rolling or point buy.
  • Languages: Your character can speak, read, and write Common and one other language that you and your DM agree is appropriate for the character. The Player’s Handbook offers a list of languages to choose from. The DM is free to modify that list for a campaign.

Centaur Traits

Alseid Traits

Alseid Description

Alseids are the graceful woodland cousins to centaurs, with the slender upper body of an elf and the lower body of a deer.

Hybsil Traits

Hybsil Description

The elusive hybsil is fey creature native to both the Feywild and the Material Plane. It resembles a 2-foot tall centaur, except its lower body is that of a small deer. Its light-brown skin bears spots and markings similar to antelopes, and its face shows attractive elven-like features. Male hybsils always feature antlers or horns, while females often grow a single thin horn on their foreheads.

Quagga Traits

Quagga Description

Smaller than their horse-like cousins, quagga have a zebra body topped with a humanoid torso, head, and arms. They traditionally style their manes into stiffened crests and sport decorative piercings and ritual scarring, which varies from tribe to tribe. Despite their similarity to centaurs, quagga despise the moniker “zebrataurs,” finding it highly insulting.
