Humans are the dominant race of Greyhawk, even after the resurge of the fey. This means humans need to be treated in greater detail than in most D&D campaigns. These variants of the basic human differ in details, but follow the general humans on humans as outlined in the Player’s Handbook, including the bonus feeat and extra at-will power. There are three differences besides purely cultural traits. Attributes are specified, with a +2 bonus to two different attributes. Bonus skills are specified to one of a short list – not to class skills. In some cases the second language is specified as well.
Mixed or Minor
This is a catch-all for racial mixes, mismatches, and peoples to small to have their own category. It is slightly less powerful than the others, but has unsurpassed flexibility. This is the Human described in the Player's Handbook.
