Languages

Rulebook

Your character starts knowing a number of languages determined by their ancestry and Intelligence modifier.

Starting Languages

Most ancestries grant Common plus the ancestry’s language (e.g. Elvish for elves). A positive Intelligence modifier grants additional languages chosen from a list.

Learning Languages

You can learn additional languages by:

  • Taking the Multilingual skill feat (requires trained in Society)
  • Spending downtime to learn from a teacher or immersion
  • Some class features and ancestry feats grant additional languages

Common Languages

Common (Taldane), Draconic, Dwarven, Elven, Gnomish, Goblin, Halfling, Jotun, Orcish, Sylvan, Aklo

Uncommon Languages

Some languages (Infernal, Celestial, Necril, Undercommon, etc.) are uncommon and require a specific reason to know them.

Secret Languages

Druidic is a secret language known only to druids. Teaching it to non-druids is considered a serious taboo.
