Races
On the Third Floor the dungeon offers you a new body. You choose a race from the bestiary, and that is what you become.
There are 42 to choose from. Every one of them has its own portrait, and all of them are listed below.
Choosing is permanent
Your race is selected once and locked. The dungeon will not let you browse, change your mind, or try a second one — the same way it does not let anyone choose their crawler number twice.
If something has genuinely gone wrong, a Dungeon Master can reopen the choice for you. Ask through System AI and explain what happened. Do not ask because you have changed your mind; that is not what the lever is for.
What a race actually does
Your race changes what you look like, and it is how other crawlers will picture you in the forums and on your profile.
It does not change your stats, your XP, your odds, or how fast you descend. There are no strong races and no weak ones. A Human and a Wendigo-adjacent Primal walk the same stairs at the same speed.
That is deliberate. This dungeon does not sell advantage, and it does not hand it out at character creation either.
The 42
- Amazonian
- Races are chosen on the Third Floor, at the same time as your class, and the choice is permanent.
- Your race does not change your stats. No race hits harder or survives longer. It changes what you are — and, through relics, which tools turn up for you.
