Description
Runic Races 1.7.2 is an Origins add-on for Minecraft 1.20.1 Forge that lets you play as one of 54 fantasy races across seven families. Choose a family first, then pick the race that suits the character you want to play.
Every race has a signature ability, passive strengths and weaknesses that affect everyday survival. Your choice can change how you fight, explore and deal with your surroundings. Take to the skies, make your home beneath the mountains or breathe fire at anything foolish enough to get too close.
Your race gives you natural advantages while leaving you free to choose your equipment and playstyle. A Feline can survive a fatal hit with Nine Lives, but becomes vulnerable underwater. A Dryad can heal in sunlight, but needs to be especially careful around fire. An Auroran can shield nearby allies and a Moss One can give the party a place to recover. Learning to work with those strengths and weaknesses is part of the fun.
Ten distinct wing designs, animated breath attacks and a customizable racial HUD help bring your choice to life. Abilities have their own visual effects, from protective wards to healing fields. Keep track of ability cooldowns and see when your surroundings are helping or hindering you.

Open a family spoiler below to see every race's active ability, passive and weakness. These entries describe the default traits. Modpack settings, datapacks and optional integrations can change the final values. Health bonuses and penalties refer to maximum health. Damage and healing are shown in hearts, with two health points equal to one heart. Damage figures are before normal defenses unless stated otherwise. A charged melee hit means your attack is at least 90% charged.

Getting started
Requires Origins Forge 1.10.0.9 or newer for Minecraft 1.20.1 Forge. For multiplayer, install matching Runic Races versions on the client and server. Both sides must update to use 1.7.2.
Use your Origins primary power key to activate your racial ability. Configure wing controls in the Runic Races section of the Controls menu. Wyvernkin can glide but cannot use a powered flap.
If you use other Origins add-ons, set disableDefaultOriginLayer = false in runic_races-common.toml to make their origins available alongside the Runic Races choices. Rejoin the world or restart the server after changing this setting.
