Pokethaum is what happens when you mix a magic based universe with that of Pokemon. Within Pokethaum it is possible both to encounter Pokemon and Monsters. As this is inspired by both D&D and Pokemon, don't expect this game to keep with the canonity of either genre.
Human:
Buffs:
No Buffs
Debuffs:
No Debuffs
Description: A Regular Boring Human. I suppose their ok...
Half-Orcs:
Buffs:
+1 To Strength Roles and Melee Roles.
Debuffs:
-1 To Intelligence Roles and Ranged Roles.
Description: Most of the time, Orcs have relatively low intelligence. However, the cross between a human and an Orc creates a breed which is only slightly dumber than humans. To most races, these half-breeds are known as Half-Orcs. To Orcs, these beings are known as Dorcs. (I couldn't resist. Sorry)
Elves:
Buffs:
+1 To Intelligence Roles and Ranged Roles.
Debuffs:

Trainers can catch D&D monsters and use them the same way as Pokemon.
Debuffs:
