Human

---

Age. Humans reach adulthood in their late teens and usually live less than a century.   Alignment. Humans tend toward no particular alignment. The best and worst are found among every human culture.   Size. Humans vary wildly in height and build, from barely 5 feet to well over 6 feet tall. Regardless of your position in that range, your size is Medium.   Determination. When you make an attack roll, an ability check, or a saving throw, you can do so with advantage. Once you use this ability, you can't use it again until you finish a short or long rest.  

Subrace

There are three main subraces of humans, but they more closely represent their upbringing: astute, generalist, and vigorous. Choose one of these subraces.  

Astute Human

Astute humans are those, that either due to their upbringing or occupation, have chosen to hone their mind. They are the scholars, sages, and storytellers that make their living in large cities or bureaucratic organizations.   Ability Score Increase. Increase either your Intelligence, Wisdom, or Charisma score by 2, and one other Ability Score of your choice increases by 1.   Sharp Mind. You gain proficiency in one Intelligence, Wisdom, or Charisma skill of your choice. You gain expertise with that skill, which means you add double your proficiency bonus to skill checks with that skill.  

Generalist Human

Some humans never settle down on one specialty or way of life. They become restless if they stay in one place or have one occupation for too long. These generalist humans aren't great at any one thing, but they are pretty good at a lot of different things.   Ability Score Increase. Increase all of your Ability Scores by 1.   Skill Versatility. You gain proficiency in two skills of your choice.   Well Traveled. You either learn an additional language of your choice, gain proficiency with light armor, or gain proficiency with one tool or weapon of your choice.  

Vigorous Human

As a vigorous human, you know the value of a hard day's work. These humans come from the ranks of farmers and herdsmen, laborers and shopkeepers, smiths and carpenters.   Ability Score Increase. Increase either your Strength, Dexterity, or Constitution score by 2, and one other Ability Score of your choice increases by 1.   Relentless Endurance. When you are reduced to 0 hit points but not killed outright, you can drop to 1 hit point instead. You can't use this feature again until you complete a long rest.

Languages. You can speak, read, and write Common and one extra language of your choice. Humans typically learn the languages of other peoples they deal with, including obscure dialects. They are fond of sprinkling their speech with words borrowed from other tongues: Orc curses, Elvish musical expressions, Dwarvish military phrases, and so on. The native language of an area is also an acceptable extra language given that Common is still relatively new.
