Is there a way to change my character's race?

I saw appearance change tokens but wasn't sure if it includes race, and if not, is there a way to change it

    There is not a way to change your race one you create your character.

    Yet. Race change it isn't a game changing option. There may be a purchasable item at a later date. Who knows? Until then though there is currently no way to change your race, only appearance.
    If you can't be constructive in your criticism, go back to world-of-whiners.

    Reroll if you can't live with your mistakes...

    If they have race changes, might as well have stat dice rerolls...

    Since race choice does have an impact on char stats etc I can kinda understand why it isnt available. They would need to issue a complete respec with it including starting rolls.

    I've played MMOs for years, but when I came to Neverwinter, I didn't know what to expect. You don't know what each does stat or how effective those stats will be til after you get in-game (ie: Recovery, Deflect) nor do you know what stats will do what (ie: Int is recovery for Rogues, and wis for Mages etc) so obviously some of us are going to mess up. If you don't know what Race is best a lot of ppl go with human cause it's balanced like me and I really didn't need the 3% def and only +2 to 1 stat. My fault, but i'd pay to change races and reroll. Starting a new char, getting to 60 and remaking your gear with enchants and all is pretty extreme for such a slight error. If not this, at least make bound items tradeable between characters on your account.

    The only excuse I see reasonable for not implementing this is lore. All races are quite balanced, and like some said you can make a new character, so if i'm going to put hours into it for a slight horizontal movement, just getting back where I was with the same class, what reason can you guys give me for not putting this in? It would be somewhat more reasonable if all races were available day 1, but I should make a Moon Elf CW now that my Human is maxed because I want a Moon Elf then again when another race comes I prefer?
