Also the official language of Amanandar in Tian Xia. Common (Taldane) – Taldane is the common language of the Inner Sea as a result of the Taldan Empire’s historical dominance.The Pathfinder wiki has more information on many of these languages. Language Listing Human Regional Languages I’ve added links to it where appropriate. The Pathfinder wiki was an exceptionally helpful resource for sanity-checking this list for completeness. For more popular languages, not every source will be listed, as there may be dozens. The main entry for each language will have at least one reference where the language may be found. Very rare languages may never have been used or referenced in PFS.Rare languages might be useful once every few PFS seasons.Uncommon languages might be useful once a PFS season.Common languages (not to be confused with Taldane) might be useful a couple of times per PFS season, or sometimes more.In most cases, scenarios are designed for characters who speak Common other languages only come into play infrequently at best. Restricted means that there is some other requirement.Įach legal language has a flag describing how frequently it appears in PFS play.Not Legal means that language cannot be taken unless it is on a chronicle sheet.PFS Legal means that language can be taken with a rank in linguistics.If you’ve spotted a language that’s not on our list, please drop us a line! Table of ContentsĮach language will be in either a PFS Legal, Restricted, or Not Legal category. Remember that, in addition to learning a language, a character can learn to read lips by choosing that option as a “language” learned with a rank in the Linguistics skill. We’ve also included their rough rarity in PFS, and whether they’re a legal choice for a PFS character to learn or not. This page is a completely comprehensive (we believe!) list of all languages listed in Paizo-published 1st edition Pathfinder books (not counting the occasional book published for another setting, like the Vampire Hunter D book). Of those languages that are defined in a rulebook, not all of them are PFS legal. Languages lurk in the forgotten reaches of splatbooks, adventure paths, and bestiaries, not just in the Inner Sea World Guide.
