Player's Handbook II: (Dungeons & Dragons Supplement)

The Players Handbook II builds upon existing materials in the Players Handbook. This is the first direct follow up to the best-selling and most used D&D rulebook. It is specifically designed to expand the options available for players by both providing new material and increasing the uses for existing rules. Included are chapters on character race, background, classes, feats, spells, character creation, and character advancement. New rules include racial affiliations that make race matter as a character advances in level, new character classes and alternate class features for existing classes, new feats, tools for rapid character creation, and additional organization and teamwork benefits — an option first introduced in Dungeon Masters Guide II and Heroes of Battle.

This follow-up to the "Player's Handbook" is designed to aid players and provide more character options.
