Since Toula Morn and the Celtic Bestiary aren't due out for a while, I am asking for some help with possible PC races in a Psuedo Celtic campaign Setting (check out Abra Dar at my Homepage (http://shike.frih.net)).

any help would be great.

Currently I decided to use the Tolkien inspired Elves, Half Elves, and Humans, though elves aren't immortal. I've also added in Halflings (semistandard from D&D) though I've made some modifications based on the world and my own research. But after that I'm stumped. I would be greatful for any possible help.

Cheers

A friend of mine collects the miniatures, and I've got the rulebook, for Celtos.
Worth having a look at-

Here are the races from my own campaign setting, though it is still a work in progress:

and there are links to some general Race Packages that you might find useful here:

I made up a few race names for my campaign using a Gaelic dictionary.

Glong are for Lizardmen
Gigean are like halflings
Artan are like dwarves
Magarla are like giants
Kaz are catmen
Fireun are birdmen
Elves, well they never existed

And of course Humans. Can't leave those suckers out. ;)

Which reminds me, I used an early anglo-saxon online dictionary for the language of one of my Western Shores cultures - the resource could be handy for you as well...

Thanks for all the dictionaries people, I collect them:drink:

They'll end up being helpful later, I hope, since I'm going to need to learn a few old languages for my master's

Thanks for the suggestions, I'll have to take a look later. My son needs my attention.

At the OP's request, I'm joining this thread so it shows up on my radar.

Once I've had a chance to peruse the links I'll toss in my $.02
