    I would appreciate this, also. 

    It would be interesting if this were a part of Campaign Settings. Choosing which languages to include/adding in additional of your choice, so when your players make their character in the campaign they see only the languages that apply.

    Imo, it should also be possible to enter free-text into the language field, for when a character learns exotic or one-time languages like "Kobolt Accent of the Mini-X tribe" or "Thunder-god's specific sign language".

    I would like to create new languages for homebrew races. as it stands I have to pick a language that is for someone else or just give an open slot on my homebrew.

    Definitely would like this - per campaign 'language packs' would be brilliant for all my different countries' languages.

    Also the ability to delete 'Common' as a PC's language since:

    1. not everyone necessarily speaks it
    2. in my world there are two 'Common's, depending on which side of the Grey Mountains you are :D And I'm sure I'm not alone

    Another request for this feature. If I'm making a homebrew race, I need to be able to assign them the appropriate language.

    This has become more important with the official release of Eberron, as it changes what languages people will start with. For example, orcs and half-orcs will generally speak Goblin, not Orcish. While languages can be added to the character sheet, they can't be removed.

    Sign me up for this, too. I treat Common as a trade language, useful for barter, trade, and business, but not great at non-trade conversations. For those, characters use regional languages, much like switching from French to Italian to German, etc., depending on location. It makes spells like Comprehend Languages and Tongues extremely useful, and encourages characters to learn at least one other regional language.

    It’s worth noting that you can create a homebrew race which doesn’t get common by default, which I have done for my campaign. But I’d still like to be able to add languages to a campaign
