[QUOTE="Kae'Yoss, post: 1113931, member: 4134"] About languages: Automatic Languages: Is what you get. In any case. Even with Int 3 (may not be lower for PC's AFAIK). These languages are the ones every member of the race posesses. And they don't count against bonus languages. Bonus Languages: In addition to the automatic languages, you get 1 language for every Int bonus you have on 1st level. The automatic languages don't count against this, and even with an int modifier of 0 or less you'll keep the automatic languages (you just won't have any bonus languages). These bonus languages have to be chosen from the list of bonus languages provided by your race and maybe class (and maybe home region or something). If there are not enough bonus languages on that list to get one for every int bonus, I don't know what to do if you want to go by the rules (a smartass like that can possibly get away with any language he wants ;)) This is all at character creation. If you want any additional language (or one that isn't on your bonus language list) you have to invest skill points on Speak Language. With SL you can choose every language that isn't secret (no druid, for example). After character creation, you won't miraculously gain or lose any of these language no matter how much your Int score changes. This means that even if your Wiz with Int 15 at 1st level increases this to 16 at 4th, he won't get another language. Nor won't you get one when you use a headband of intellect.
