Custom Race Option

## Option Details

This homebrew is a variant option in a similar vein to what *Tasha’s Cauldron Of Everything* introduced with the Custom Lineage option, allowing players to customize the races of their characters. It expands on that concept to allow for more depth with the potential of creating a unique race.

## Custom Race Traits

All custom races gain the following traits.

**Ability Score Increase.** You increase two different ability scores by 1.

**Creature Type.** When you pick this race, you choose one of the following creature types: aberration, beast, celestial, construct, dragon, elemental, fey, fiend, giant, humanoid, monstrosity, ooze, plant, or undead. You are the chosen creature type. And if the creature type that you had chosen was construct or undead, you can be affected by effects which normally have no effect on them.

**Size.** You are medium or small (your choice when you pick this race).

**Speed.** Your base walking speed is 30 feet.

**Lifespan.** You have a lifespan of 1000 years. But if your creature type is beast or humanoid, you have a lifespan of 100 years instead. And if your creature type is construct or undead, you do not have a fixed lifespan, and you cannot be magically aged.

**Special Traits.** You have 14 points to spend on special traits that you qualify for. But if your creature type is beast, construct, humanoid, or undead, you have 16 points to spend on special traits instead. And if your creature type is construct or undead, you must take [Unusual Nature]. You can only take each special trait once.

**Languages.** You know Common and one other standard language or exotic language.

## Legendary Option Details

If your DM allows for it, you may choose to create a unique race which has the capacity for possessing more special traits.
