All the choices available when making a new character in BG3 can be rather overwhelming. It can be difficult to keep track of what options you’ve used in the past or what combinations you are looking to try. Add that you can’t easily check some of these things in character creation unless you select/highlight a specific option. To mitigate that, we bring you this easy-to-reference list of all races, subraces, classes, and subclasses.
We have a separate guide for all Cantrips to help with that part of creation.
