Human Race

Humans represent the original race of Sosaria and were, for a long time, the only playable race in Ultima Online, until the arrival of the Elves with the Mondain’s Legacy expansion. Versatile and adaptable, Humans excel in a wide range of roles, from melee combat to magic, thanks to their ability to learn and use all kinds of skills. Their strength lies in their physical endurance, natural regeneration of mana and stamina, and the ability to carry more weight than other races. These traits make them ideal for long battles, resource gathering expeditions, and activities that require persistence and adaptability.

Characteristics

• Humans can easily adapt to any role, from warrior to mage, from crafter to resource gatherer.
  
  
• They recover mana and stamina faster, making them suitable for prolonged battles and travel.
  
  
• They can carry more weight than other races, which is especially useful for those gathering materials or transporting loot.
  
  
• They possess basic knowledge in all skills, even untrained ones, allowing them to perform basic actions without prior training.
  
  
• They gain better yields when chopping wood, mining ore, or skinning animals.

Special Ability

Special Abilities - Human
Ability	Description
Strong Back	Humans have a carrying capacity greater than that determined by strength. They can carry an additional 60 Stones of weight.
Tough	Humans regenerate hit points faster than normal, granting +2 Hit Point Regeneration.
Workhorse	Humans have a higher chance of finding additional resources when gathering hides, ore, and lumber: +1 log in Trammel, +2 logs in Felucca, +1 random ore when mining, and extra hides when skinning.
Jack of all Trades	Humans possess a base ability in all skills, even untrained ones, with a minimum value of 20 (not visible in the skill menu). Note: as of Publish 64, this no longer contributes to mana discounts for Special Moves. If the player has at least 200 (-5 mana) or 300 (-10 mana) total modified points in combat skills, special moves will cost reduced mana; otherwise, they use the full cost.
