Base Movement

Every character (and monster) begins with a base movement determined by race. For monsters, this information appears in the apropriate Monstrous Manual™ accessory under Movement. For characters, the base move varies by race:

	Character Race	Movement Rate
	Human	12
	Elf or Half-elf	12
	Dwarf	6
	Gnome	6
	Halfling	6

Unless the DM wants to generate ability scores for every NPC in the game, it’s safe to assume that any generic member of the race has the base movement rate listed. However, player characters and exceptional NPCs may be able to move faster than normal.
