Ability Score Increases

Ability Score Increases are related to your character's background, rather than species. When you select a background, increase your statistics using the background's three chosen ability scores. If the background does not have a listed set of ability scores, increase any one score by 2 and increase a different score by 1, or increase three different scores by 1. Follow this rule regardless of the method you use to determine the scores, such as rolling or point buy. The “Quick Build” section for your character’s class offers suggestions on which scores to increase. You can follow those suggestions or ignore them, but you can’t raise any of your scores above 20.

Life Span

The typical life span of a player character in the is about a century, assuming the character doesn’t meet a violent end. Members of some species, such as nymphs and earth golems, can live for centuries. If typical members of a species can live longer than a century, that fact is mentioned in their description.

Languages

When creating your character, after selecting your class, species, and background, select your known languages. Your character can speak, read, and write Common and two other standard languages. The Basic Rules offers a list of languages to choose from. The GM is free to modify that list for a campaign.

All across the world of Titan, various descendants of the first wolves diversified themselves as they came across the new lands they roamed. Running across the Golden Fields to play with their comrades or climbing high into the mountains and building dense fur coats, these people are as diverse as they come while still sharing a common heritage. Canisovans take on the aspects of the type of canine lineage they come from, whether that be the thin and speedy Greylings or the happy-go-lucky Corgonians. Canisovans come in all shapes and sizes and it is said that gaining the trust and friendship of one means you have an ally for life.

*When you take the Magic action, you cast a spell that has a casting time of an action or use a feature or magic item that requires a Magic action to be activated. If you cast a spell that has a casting time of 1 minute or longer, you must take the Magic action on each turn of that casting, and you must maintain Concentration while you do so. If your Concentration is broken, the spell fails, but you don’t expend a spell slot. See also “Concentration.”
