Each character may only select one culture at character creation, or if they prefer they may leave it unchosen. If no culture is chosen, then it may be selected at any time afterwards with '''[[TITLE]] SET CULTURE {culture}''' (Note: To see which cultures are available to you, type ''TITLE LIST CULTURE USE''. See [[TITLE]] for more information about the title system). Once selected, culture may only be changed afterwards with a '''culture reset''', available through [[SimuCoin]]s or as a rare prize in some (paid) Quests. Very rarely, there may be events (such as the release of a new culture option) where characters of a particular race receive a free culture reset.

Very rarely, there may be events (such as the release of a new culture option) where characters of a particular race receive a free culture reset.

While some cultural titles are available to more than one race, most are race-specific. A small handful of cultures also provide access to expanded [[language]] system options, such as the [[Tehir]] language for humans and half-elves who select the culture or the [[Dhe'nar]] language for Dhe'nar dark elves and Khanshael dwarves.

Culture is the shared background of various population groups. In GemStone IV terms, each race consists of a variety of cultures.

Each character may only select one culture at character creation, or if they prefer they may leave it unchosen. If no culture is chosen, then it may be selected at any time afterwards with TITLE SET CULTURE {culture}. To see which cultures are available to you, type TITLE LIST CULTURE USE. See the title system category for more information about the title system.

Once selected, culture may only be changed afterwards with a culture reset, available through SimuCoins or as a rare prize in some (paid) Quests. Very rarely, there may be events (such as the release of a new culture option) where characters of a particular race receive a free culture reset.

While some cultural titles are available to more than one race, most are race-specific. A small handful of cultures also provide access to expanded language system options, such as the Tehir language for humans and half-elves who select the culture or the Dhe'nar language for Dhe'nar dark elves and Khanshael dwarves.
