Title: Do the Humans need their own language?
Post by: Script Wrecked on July 03, 2019, 01:05:42 AM

I get the feeling that some players with Human characters are slightly irked by not having their own racial language.

For me, having a racial language for my non-human characters has really helped define them (in my mind) as a distinct race with their own particular set of characteristics. Being able to converse behind a language wall strengthens that sense of otherness, of having their own culture.

I think human characters would benefit for this.

Whaddya all think?

In most PnP PWs, humans have numerous languages. Honestly, I always kind of assumed that different regions have local languages. Such has never been codified that I know of, but I don't see the addition of such local languages as problematic to prior history.
