Massive Race Selection	comment	This is the game subtrope of Loads and Loads of Races, involving races you can play as. Sometimes, a Tabletop Game or Video Game setting just has a metric boatload of playable races. Once the number of options reaches six or more, you end up with this trope. Note that "race" here means intelligent species or subspecies — not skin colors, cultures, or factions, and certainly not racing games. Sometimes a "race" is less a biological distinct species, and more of a mutation or modification (such as werewolves, zombies, cyborgs, vampires), but the important part here is whether they're mechanically distinct or not. If they have separate stats, separate starting zones and quests, or otherwise work differently then they count; if the difference is purely cosmetic then they don't. The trope happens in three ways: You're designing an RPG (either a Video Game or Tabletop). You want more customization options. Your classes are pretty much the standard bunch, so you allow a bunch of races to be selected too. Now player options for creating a character aren't just limited to Human, Elf, Dwarf, Hobbit, and Orc. You can also play a Werewolf, a Cat Person, a Giant Monkey, a Robot, a Giant Robot Monkey, a Dwarf Giant Robot Were-Monkey, etc. These races may be further subdivided into every possible variation. You're designing a Strategy Game, and you want to give your player tons of faction and customization options. Throw in a bunch of sub-factions, and you have a real menagerie. You have a set of factions in your Strategy Game or MMORPG, and you're now doing a sequel (or, in a Tabletop Game, a new edition). What's a simple way to bring something new to the sequel or new edition? Add in more races! Alternately, you wish to have a subfaction which specializes in one aspect of your Planet of Hats; this leads to speciation of a main faction into two or more subfactions. Editing Lore is always easier than editing Canon. In this trope, a playable race is one that exists as a separate option for the player. In Strategy Games where you pick a faction instead of making one character, the playable races are the main species of each faction — if a faction has some odd members of some other species, those don't constitute a separate playable race. This is a medium-specific subtrope of Loads and Loads of Races. Examples

Massive Race Selection / int_108cd205	comment	Wizardry's later SirTech-developed installments. Not as massive as some examples on this page, though: Ten playable races (of which you only meet two as NPCs), and about eight NPC races in the second and third games. Justified in that the player characters are from a different planet from the locations of the second and third games (which themselves are on different planets, and the only NPC races they share are the ones with interstellar travel).

Massive Race Selection / int_14d341dc	comment	Star Trek Online has a total of 27 playable canonical races. 12 more are available as bridge officers ("boffs", NPC helpers) and dozens more as duty officers ("doffs", used in a trading card-like alternate progression system). But the total number is literally infinite, as players can create their own alien races for both PCs and boffs. (This count also lists Trills and Joined Trills, Vulcans and Romulans, Andorians and Aenar boffs, and Lukari and Kentari boffs separately: In-Universe, each pair are technically different ethnic groups of the same species.)

Massive Race Selection / int_17415b19	comment	Star Ocean is a solid example here, owing to its influence from Star Trek — most admittedly human-looking enough, but: Humans, Fellpool, Featherfolk, Expelian, Tetrageniot, Nedian, Klausian, Velbaysian, Elicoorian, and Menodix (though some are simply Human Aliens, others have differences that are noted either in the story, in gameplay, or in the plot). And that's just sampling from the PC rosters of the first three—there's far more of them represented among the NPCs and discussed in the Encyclopedia in later games. (to name a few, Felinefolk, Ur-Felinefolk, Vanguardian, Rezerbian, Vendeeni, and so on...)

Massive Race Selection / int_1a8d488a	comment	Munchkin has loads of races by now, due to its many expansions and editions which can all be combined: The original had humans (the standard-race for every player), dwarfs, elves and halflings The expansion packs gave orcs, lizard guys, centaurs and gnomes. Munchkin Bites added changelings, vampires, werewolves and, with the Pants Macabre expansion, mummies Munchkin Conan added Cimmerians, Stygians, Kushite and Zamorians Munchkin Legends had the standard dwarfes, elves and halflings and added fauns Star Munchkin added cyborgs, felines, mutants and, with the The Clown Wars expansion, bugs And all of those races can be combined with the Half Breed card, so a character can easily be half-dwarf, half-cyborg or half-Cimmerian, half-Faun.

Massive Race Selection / int_2b70efd4	comment	In the Old World of Darkness, we have playable vampires, werewolves (plus 11 other shapeshifter races), humans with magic powers (mages, sorcerers, mediums, shih, Imbued, etc.), changelings (faeries trapped in human bodies), wraiths, demons, mummies, kuei-jin (vampire-zombie-ghosts), ghouls, dhampirs (humans with vampire parents), dhampyr (humans with kuei-jin parents), kinfolk (humans with shapeshifter ancestry), kinain (humans with changeling ancestry), inanimae (faeries bound to the elements), adhene (faeries who'd been exiled from the physical world), hsien (small gods trapped in human bodies), fomori (and drones, gorgons, and kami) (people possessed by spirits), revenants, spectres... oh, and regular humans, if you're feeling squishy. All of these "splats" have their own subdivisions into playable types, though in most cases those are factions or cultures rather than races. But Werewolf: The Apocalypse lets you play not just werewolves, but also werehyenas, werespiders, wereravens, werebears, werefoxes, werecrocodiles, weresnakes, werecoyotes, wererats, weresharks, and nine types of werecats (tigers, lions, leopards, cheetahs, cougars, lynxes, jaguars, fae cats, and shadowcats). If you're playing a historical or AU game, you can add wereaurochs, werebats, wereboars, were-sabretooth tigers as another type of werecat, and werethylacines as another type of werewolf. And if you're up for a challenge, you can try your hand at adapting one of the corruption-spawned shapeshifters for playable use - the werefrogs are probably the easiest, with the werecockroaches having multiple mental illnesses, the wererhinos being unable to take fully human form, and the wereapes being motivated by overwhelming greed. Each of these Changing Breeds is a separate "species," with separate stats and magical Gifts. Think that's a lot? You haven't seen Changeling: The Dreaming. Sixteen European Kithain (plus eight Thallain), fourteen Native American Nunnehi, six elemental Inanimae, four Pacific Menehune, ten East Asian Hsien, six Arabic Djinn, and seven of the dark Adhene.

Massive Race Selection / int_367f632a	comment	The Warhammer 40000: Dawn of War series borrows liberally from the tabletop game, building a wide roster. By the time the 3rd expansion, Soulstorm, had been released, the first game had nine highly varied races to choose from in it- Space Marines, Chaos Space Marines, Eldar, Orks, Imperial Guard, Necrons, Tau, Sisters of Battle and Dark Eldar. The only race from the tabletop at the time that was missing were the Tyranids. Dawn of War II immediately reconciled this, launching with Space Marines, Elder, Orks, and Tyranids. Expansions added Chaos Space Marines and Imperial Guard. The Last Stand mode gave cameo appearances to the Necrons and Tau, with one unit each. Averted by Dawn of War III, which includes only the series mainstays of Space Marines, Eldar, and Orks. The game flopped and received no expansions.

For neutral races, there are Pandaren, Dracthyr, and Earthen. These go through their leveling experience without a faction, but choose between either Alliance or Horde afterwards. Battle for Azeroth added ten Allied Races, which have to be unlocked and are reskinned models of existing races with different racial bonuses. These are Void Elves, Lightforged Draenei, Dark Iron Dwarves, Kul Tiran Humans, and Mechagnomes for the Alliance; and Nightborne, Highmountain Tauren, Mag'har Orcs, Zandalari Trolls, and Vulpera for the Horde.

The world has Loads and Loads of Races, especially of the furry type; dogs, wolves, frogs, oxen, monkeys, moles, armadillos, and fish all have Beast Man versions running around. There's also faeries and dragons (who can take human form). Then in the Little Bit Beastly category there's bunny-people, fox-people, Cat Folk and Snake People. Pretty much all of these will be in your party at some point in the games.

Massive Race Selection / int_5c4e0b49	comment	The Warlords series, and its spinoff Warlords Battlecry. WBC1 had nine races (Human, Dwarf, Undead, Barbarian, Minotaur, Orc, High Elf, Wood Elf, Dark Elf), arranged on a chart whose columns were "civilized", "barbaric", and "magical" and whose rows were "good", "neutral", and "evil". WBC2 added three new races, which can be unofficially sorted into a new "chaotic" column: Fey, Dark Dwarves, and Daemons. WBC3 almost completely abandoned the theme, splitting Humans into Empire and Knights and adding Ssrathi (Mayincatec Snake People), Swarm, and Plaguelords. By the end of the series, that's a grand total of 16 almost completely unique factions drawn from 11 races (of which there are three kinds of human, three kinds of elf, and two kinds of dwarf), with hardly a shared unit or building to be found.

Massive Race Selection / int_5e150650	comment	Exalted has, at the most basic, six playable species: humans, ghosts, Dragon Kings, Alchemicals (robo-golem Exalted with human souls), The Fair Folk, and Jadeborn (underground dwarf-elf-rock dudes). But "humans" come in a huge variety, including entire populations of Beastmen, God-Bloods (various Half Human Hybrids), mutants, and ordinary mortals, plus the Exalted themselves. Exalted include the Dragon-Blooded (a subrace that try not to breed with mortals when they can get each other), while the other Exalted (Solars, Lunars, Sidereals, Abyssals, Green Sun Princes) are born mortal but become demigods when they're Blessed with Suck/Cursed with Awesome, and gradually stop associating with mere mortals. All of the above have separate game mechanics, and all but the mutants, God-Bloods, Beastmen, and squishy mortals have their own proprietary type of magic. There're also oodles of not-intended-to-be-playable species of demons, elementals, spirits, Akuma, and other guys (that some people play anyway). Third Edition adds the Liminals, who are Exalts created from human corpses.

Massive Race Selection / int_5f57add0	comment	Small World started with an already-respectable 14 races in the core set, the first three official expansions have added another 10 in total, the Underground game added another 15, and the Ghosts from a promo expansion bring the total up to 40. Some of the 'races' would normally count as humans, however; for example, Amazons, Barbarians, Gypsies and Sorcerers are all separate races. In addition, there are special abilities which are independent of races, so during a game you'll actually be looking at things like Merchant Halflings or Cursed Goblins. Or Peace-Loving Orcs, for that matter. There are 20 abilities in the core game, with 12 more from expansions and 21 from Underground, meaning you're looking at 39 * 53 = 2067 race/ability combinations just from official sources. Not counting Ghosts, because they work differently. Fans have added more, obviously.

Massive Race Selection / int_6533ce9d	comment	Twilight Imperium started out with six "great races" (including humans) scrambling to rebuild the long extinct Lazax Imperium they were once part of; expansions for the game's 1st edition added four more races that had risen to a similar level of power in the interim. The current 3rd edition included all ten races from the get-go, then a new expansion was published which introduced four brand-new races, for a total of fourteen; probably the largest number of playable races in a tabletop strategy game, with the possible exception of Star Fleet Battles. As of the end of third and the beginning of fourth edition, the game now has seventeen playable races. If you want to see every race in TI4 in action, you'll need to play at least three games, assuming you're playing with the maximum player count of six. Bear in mind that a six-player game of Twilight Imperium frequently takes eight hours.

The Advanced Race Guide details a total of 37 races, starting with the "core" races: dwarves, elves, gnomes, half-elves, half-orcs, halflings, and humans. It then continues on to the "featured" races: aasimars, catfolk, dhampirs, drow, fetchlings, goblins, hobgoblins, ifrits, kobolds, orcs, oreads, ratfolk, sylphs, tengus, tieflings, and undines. Finally, it details the "uncommon" races, who receive the least support: the changelings, duergar, gillmen, gripplis, kitsune, merfolk, nagaji, samsarans, strix, sulis, svirfneblin, vanaras, vishkanyas, and waylangs. In addition, the Inner Sea Bestiary introduces five more races: the android, ghoran, lashunta, monkey goblin, and syrinx. The fourth bestiary further includes the gathlain, kasatha, trox, wyrood, and wyvaran, bringing the total up to 47. By Bestiary 6, the grand total's up somewhere in excess of 59.

Massive Race Selection / int_6ac55ec7	comment	Some settings of Dungeons & Dragons. Also, mainline Dungeons & Dragons, if you add enough splatbooks. Or your DM allows the use of intelligent races found in the Monster Manuals. In 3.5 alone, there were 135 official races - but many of them were repeats or overlapping each other (probably a third of those were elves). For sheer diversity, Forgotten Realms stands out, with dozens of races and subraces scattered across the setting. Then there's Planescape and Spelljammer, which by their very nature as bridges between settings allow for practically any race or subrace to be played and then some (Planescape had such options as intelligent squirrels native to Yggdrasil), more to emphasize the dazzling effect. Planescape also has Planetouched, which are hybrids between any playable regular species and nearly any kind of planar creature (elementals, demons, devils, angels, slaadi, etc.), allowing basically infinite variety. Eberron, too, has a lot of races. Plus the setting literally says that everything that has a place in Dungeons and Dragons has a place in Eberron, which at least theoretically means every splatbook is valid. In D&D 4th Edition, with the release of the Second Player Handbook, plus other official material (in Dragon magazine and other sourcebooks) there are nearly 20 playable player-character races! And more coming! This doesn't include the 'monsters as PCs' option, which adds even more. Most of the races are revisions of races from 3.5. As of summer 2010, the list of published (in an actual book that can be bought) and supported (race specific options are provided for character customization) PC races is: Human, Dragonborn, Dwarf, Eladrin, Elf, Half-Elf, Halfling, Tiefling, Deva, Gnome, Goliath, Half-Orc, Shifter (which come in Longtooth and Razorclaw varieties), Githzerai, Minotaur, Shardmind, Wilden, Changeling, Drow, Genasi, Kalashtar, Warforged, Mul, and Thri-Kreen. Shadar-Kai, Revenants, and Gnolls have received support in online publications. Bladelings have appeared in a published book but received no support. Several monster races have published stats, but aren't supported or intended for PC use. The Basic/Expert/etc D&D system practically lived off of this trope, offering supplements and gazetteers for PC savage humanoids, fairy creatures, undersea races, aerial beings, lycanthrope strains, ancient species from the Hollow World, various types of animal-folk from Red Steel, and weird exotic critters from the Princess Ark saga. And that's before you crack open the Immortals boxed set. D&D Next (which evolved into 5th Edition) has a number of avaliable races, but many are subraces, variants, or slightly tweeked versions of the same race, with others in development (some of which might never get an Official release) — it is the current edition, after all. The Player Character races of 5e are as follows: Dwarves (Mountain, Hill, Duergar/Gray), Elves (High, Wood, Drow/Dark, Sea, Eladrin, Shadar-kai, Pallid, Astral), Halflings (Lightfoot, Stout, Ghostwise, Lotusden), Humans, Dragonborn (of various Chromatic, Metallic, and Gem dragon ancestries, not to mention the Draconblood and Ravenite versions), Gnomes (Forest, Svirfneblin/Deep, Rock), Half-Elves, Half-Orcs, Tieflings (of various archdevil bloodlines as well as a Feral bloodline), Aasimar (Protector, Scourge, Fallen), Aarakocra, Kenku, Goliaths, Genasi (Air, Earth, Water, Fire), Gith (Githyanki and Githzerai), Shifters (Beasthide, Swiftstride, Longtooth, Wildhunt), Kalashtar, Warforged, Changelings, Minotaurs, Vedalken, Simic Hybrids, Centaurs, Satyrs, Firbolgs, Lizardfolk, Tabaxi, Leonin, Tritons, Yuan-ti Purebloods, Bugbears, Goblins, Hobgoblins, Verdan, Orcs, Autognomes, Giff, Hadozee, Plasmoids, Thri-kreen, Kobolds, Tortles, Loxodon, Fairies, Harengon, Hollow Ones (although that one's a Supernatural Gift requiring a DM to give the go-ahead to apply the template to the character), Dragonmarked variants of elves, humans, dwarves, halflings, half-orcs, and half-elves, vampire-like Dhampirs, proto-hag Hexbloods, and the Reborn that have brought back to life by magic, science or something more mysterious, Locathah and Grung (which are playable only through the use of special PDFs that were released through Extra Life charities), and Custom Lineage for those who want to make a basic homebrewed race (it's basically Variant Human, only with a +2 instead of two +1s and a choice between a skill proficiency or darkvision, and it doesn't have to be Human). There are over 100 possible official options, and that's without factoring in Unearthed Arcana races that might not ever get an official release, or Planeshift races, which are in a similar situation (to say nothing about subrace and variant options that are still just Planeshift stuff or in Unearthed Arcana testing). For a rundown with a beat to it, see JoCat's "Crap Guide to D&D Races".

Massive Race Selection / int_6c1234ed	comment	Dwarf Fortress Adventure Mode. Without need for art resources, the developer wrote a script to automatically turn animals into animal man variants and applied it to almost two hundred different animals. Most of these (excluding purely aquatic species) be played as in Adventurer Mode if they have settled into a "civilized" population, in addition to dwarves, humans, elves, some of the friendlier underground sapients, and potentially experiments. They were never intended to be "balanced", and range from virtually useless to overpowered, and it's not always obvious which is which. The Elephant Man is a deadly Lightning Bruiser, but will struggle to find armor; in a game where wounds, maiming, and infections are tracked, this adds up. On the other hand, the humble Capybara Man can swim innately and wear off-the-shelf dwarvern armor.

ZAngband lets you play as an Amberite, Barbarian, Beastman, Cyclops, Dark-Elf, Draconian, Dwarf, Elf, Ghoul, Gnome, Golem, High-Elf, Hobbit, Human, Imp, Klackon, Kobold, Mindflayer, Nibelung, Skeleton, Spectre, Sprite, Vampire, Yeek, or Zombie, or as one of about a half-a-dozen Half-breed types. The variant Entroband has thirty-seven playable races and twenty-seven classes. Frogcomposband has 43 "normal" races as of version 7.0, many of which have unique gimmicks and mechanics, including five flavors of Human, three elves, two types of dwarf, hobbits, gnomes, two types of fairy, two types of demon, Archons, 8 types of orcs and giants, five types of undead, and, finally the "others" section, which includes androids, beastmen, centaurs, draconians, doppelgangers, ents, golems, Klackons (again), Kutar (a weird Japanese mascot), Mindflayers, Tonberries, werewolves, and yeeks. There's also a "monster" option that adds too many choices to countnote To keep it short, the main categories are Animal (Centipede, Hound, Hydra, and Spider), Angel/Demon, Beholder, Dragon (14 different types), Elemental Vortex (4 types of elemental, plus vortices), Golem (3 types), Jelly (also includes Quylthulgs), Leprechaun, Mimic/Possessor (Death-Swords, Mimics, Possessors, and Rings), Orc/Troll/Giant (actually only includes Giants and Trolls), Undead (Liches and Vampires), and Xorn, the strangest being cursed weapons and rings that possess whoever picks them up.

Massive Race Selection / int_9d34190a	comment	The Elder Scrolls The first two games in the series (Arena and Daggerfall offer eight playable races - three Races of Men (Bretons, Nords, and Redguards), three Races of Mer (Elves) (Altmer/High Elves, Dunmer/Dark Elves, and Bosmer/Wood Elves), and two Beast Man aces (Argonians and Khajiit). Starting with Morrowind, the series adds two more to reach its well-known 10 total races. Added are the Orcs (a sub-race of Mer known as the "Orsimer") who previously appeared in the series and were integrated into Imperial society (and thus made playable) as a result of the ending of Daggerfall, and the Imperials (created by Retconning previous lore to add them). In addition to the playable races, some two dozen non-playable races are seen or mentioned in the series' lore.

Massive Race Selection / int_9d80bbcf	comment	Pathfinder: Kingmaker has the seven core races the base game inherited from 3.5 edition D&D, plus aasimar; the Wild Cards DLC adds tieflings. These last two also have a sub-selection of alternate heritages (seven for aasimar, eleven for tieflings) which provide different traits from the basic species: for example an archon-blooded aasimar gets a bonus to Constitution rather than Charisma, and hold person as a spell-like ability instead of searing light. The sequel, Pathfinder: Wrath of the Righteous, is set to add several more races, including dhampirs, kitsune, and oreads (equivalent to D&D's earth genasi).

It started with its own new set of base races along with humans, but also gave rules for playing the standard fantasy races, dwarves and elves and such starting with 13 playable races. Books which introduce new monsters have given some of them stats for playing as characters so the number of playable races continues to grow. Within a year and a half, it expanded from the original 13 races to a whopping 79.

Massive Race Selection / int_a7ae79c2	comment	Star Wars: The Old Republic isn't as diverse as the universe it's based on, but still has a healthy selection; humans (with a cyborg varient), Twi'lek, Zabrak, Cathar, Togruta, and Nautolans are open to both Imperial and Republic factions. The Imperial players have Chiss, Sith Purebloodsnote Uneven Hybrids of humans and the otherwise extinct Sith species, and Rattataki as playable species while the Republic get Mirialans and Miraluka. You can play a species locked to one faction on the other faction if you've leveled to 50 with a particular species, so it's not uncommon to see a Chiss Republic Trooper or a Miraluka Sith. One of the main hindrances to more diversity in player species is that the developers want to stick to species who can speak Galactic Basic, feeling more exotic choices (e.g. Wookiees) would break immersion. However once the game went Free to Play, any options other than Human, Cyborg and Zabrak are only available for subscribers or for those willing to fork over the cash. There is no difference in gameplay between any species other than some changes in dialogue (in particular, Imperials other than humans and Sith will come in for some Fantastic Racism) and a unique social ability (essentially a glorified emote): e.g. Twi'leks have a unique dance, and Sith backhand their companion to punish them.

Massive Race Selection / int_bff01809	comment	Warhammer and Warhammer 40,000: 40K only has about eight main races (Humans, Space Elves, Space Dwarfs (see below), Space Orks, Killer Undead Cyborgs, Hive Mind Bug Aliens, The Greys, and crazy daemons) but each has a ton of sub-organizations, groups, and factions. For example, "humans" alone covers the Imperial Guard, several different kinds of Space Marine, the Inquisition (itself divided into Ordos Malleus, Hereticus and Xenos to deal with daemons, witches and aliens respectively), the Sisters of Battle, and the Adeptus Mechanicus. To an extent, there are also the Leagues of Votann (the aforementioned Space Dwarfs, who are a Human Subspecies that has diverged so much from humanity so much they are considered to be a Xenos rather than an Imperium faction), and the Chaos Space Marines (who not only fall under the Legions of Hell, but like their loyalist counterparts are also divided into several subfactions of their own). The fluff also mentions a lot of other races, many of whom have been wiped out by the good guys. Warhammer has no less than 15 (the Empire, Bretonnia, Dwarfs, High Elves, Dark Elves, Wood Elves, Lizardmen (available in newt, monitor lizard, frog, and crocodile), Greenskins (Orcs and Goblins), Ogres, Vampire Counts, Tomb Kings, Skaven, Beastmen, Warriors of Chaos, Daemons of Chaos, and Chaos Dwarfs). The upcoming Warhammer: The Old World revival is set to add two more (Kislev and Grand Cathay). Blood Bowl has 23 different types of team, including 3 kinds of human (standard, Norse, and Amazon), 4 kinds of elf (dark, wood, wealthy high and poor high), 4 kinds of chaos (standard, dwarf, Chaos pact and Nurgle), 4 kinds of undead (standard, necromancer, vampire, and mummy), 2 kinds of lizardmen (slann and saurus/skink teams), plus regular dwarfs, halflings, orks, goblins, ogres, skaven, and the "mixed bag" underworld team (skaven and goblins). This makes for about 11 distinct species that form their own teams. The video game adaptation went on to add the Khorne team, for a total of 5 kinds of Chaos.

All the civilizations share the same basic look and technologies, but have bonuses to certain types of units and access different parts of the game's technology tree. In particular, the second and third installments benefitted from even more civilizations being added with their respective Updated Re-releases. The first game started with 12 civilizations and the expansion brought it to 16. The second game began with 13 civilizations and was later expanded to 18 with the expansion pack. After support for the game was revived a decade later, the game now has 42 civilizations as of the latest expansion pack for the Definitive Edition. The third game started with 8 civilizations and its two expansions brought it to 14. After the release of the Definitive Edition, the game now has 22 civilizations, with far more diversity than the previous installments as each civilization adheres to one of five different categories (European, Native American, Asian, American, and African) rather than being all based off the same template.

The game even allows you to play as a Humpback Whale, if you desire. And that's the ones the game deigns to point out. Nearly every book will also note that many other races exist in such tiny numbers (usually less than a percent of any given state) that they don't necessarily count as a demographic, and lumped under the general term "D-Bees" (from "Dimensional Beings"). Just as an example, the book D-Bees of North America is specifically designed to be nothing but playable alien races.

Massive Race Selection / int_ecd2d797	comment	Baldur's Gate and its sequel give players a selection of races to choose for their character based on those from Dungeons & Dragons, with Baldur's Gate III including a wider selection still, and each race having different starting strengths.

The main two characters are both part of the race most similar to human, but the other party slots can be filled with mercenaries from the various races.

Massive Race Selection / int_f41d2302	comment	Dragon Ball Xenoverse and its sequel gives players a selection of five races to make their Time Patroller, each of which have differeing basic abilities: Earthlings have overall balanced abilities, as well as natural ki regeneration. Males have stronger melee special attacks, while females have stronger ki blasts. In Xenoverse 2, they also have the ability to temporarily summon a Flying Nimbus and Power Pole. Saiyans are Glass Cannons who offset their low HP with naturally higher attack power, which increases further when low on HP and after reviving. Males have stronger melee attacks and longer-lasting buffs, while females have better ki and stamina recovery. They are also capable of transforming into Super Saiyans (and in Xenoverse 2, Super Saiyan Gods). Namekians are Stone Walls who have high HP and natural health regeneration, in exchange for overall lower attack power. In Xenoverse 2, they can also temporarily transform into giants. Frieza Clan members are Fragile Speedsters who can move quickly and fire stunning ki blasts, but are overall weaker than others. In Xenoverse 2, they also gain a Golden Form. Majins are Mighty Glaciers who offset their overall low mobility with strong defenses and attack power. Males are slower but hardier, while females are faster but more fragile.

Massive Race Selection / int_f9603330	comment	Gamma World had twenty origins in the seventh edition, and each character was made by picking two, leading to 400 unique combinations (give or take a few, depending on how matching origins and engineered humans are handled). The expansions brought the origins to 48, which brought the possible combinations to over 2200!

Massive Race Selection / int_fa7a1c65	comment	Thunderscape allows to choose team members out of 8 civilized races: pretty standard humans, elves and dwarves; dwarfish faerkin and goreaux (the former magical, the latter technological); juraks — sort of fur-covered orcs; reptilian rapacians; and ferrans — humanoids created by uplifting various vertebrates and giving them traits of the former 5 races (in other words, Half Human Hybrids). Additionally, a troll and a steam-powered golem NPCs may join you. Tabletop spinoff further expanded the selection.

Massive Race Selection / int_fb9fefa6	comment	Hc Svnt Dracones offers in the base book alone 24 species of Vector divided into five families (Canidae, Felidae, Aviae, Retiliae, and Mustelidae) and nine "Morphisms" that can be taken in almost any combination. The Core: Extended rulebook adds another five families (Ursidae, Delphinidae, Selachii, Rodentia, and Ungulatae) and two additional canid and felid species with six more Morphisms. Even rules for creating unique Vectors known as "Blips". As well as Cogs that have their own set of rules and "Frame" selection. Cogsune are all the same but can swap out their modular limbs for different abilities. And then there's Exonymphs. Second edition generalizes the dozens of species into ten families with no further differentiation and reduces some of the less dramatic morphisms (like atypical patterning) to character quirks. It also clarifies that Cogs have the same families as biological Vectors.

Massive Race Selection / int_ff3289cd	comment	The third game started with 8 civilizations and its two expansions brought it to 14. After the release of the Definitive Edition, the game now has 22 civilizations, with far more diversity than the previous installments as each civilization adheres to one of five different categories (European, Native American, Asian, American, and African) rather than being all based off the same template.
