* '''First Language:''' Children gains language [[proficiency]]. The first language chosen represents their mother tongue, usually regionally or racially associated.
* '''Smaller Size:''' Children are one [[size]] category smaller than that of an adult of its race. This results in a lower [[hit dice]], usually from a {{c|d8}} to a {{c|d6}}, or a {{c|d6}} to a {{c|d4}}.
* '''Second Chances:''' Children sometimes unexpectedly succeed and/or survive the most extreme odds. Children has access to the ''Child Die''. The die starts as a {{c|d20}} and can be added to any [[ability check]] or [[attack roll]], as well as reduce an [[attack roll]] from an enemy targeting them. After each use, reduce the die size by one in the following succession: {{c|d12}}, {{c|d10}}, {{c|d8}}, {{c|d6}}, {{c|d4}}. After the {{c|d4}} is rolled, the die is expended. The die is reset after each [[long rest]].
