I'm mulling over running a campaign in the Underdark and I wanted to make the group take races that have light sensitivity. Does anyone know where I could find a list of races with Light Sensitivity or Light Blindness?

I used the Archives of Nethys (https://www.aonprd.com/) to create this list:

Light Sensitivity:
Main Races:
Dhampir, Duergar, Kobold, Kuru, Orc

Alternate Racial Traits
Darkvision (Elf), Deep Dweller (Locathah)

Light Blindness:
Main Races
Drow, Munavri, Sahuagin

Alternate Racial Traits
Drow-Blooded (Half-Elf)

There might be a few more monstrous races floating around I missed this way.

Troll blooded gives you a sort of light sickness thingy.

Dwarves (https://www.d20pfsrd.com/races/core-races/dwarf/) with the Minesight alternative racial trait gain light sensitivity (even though it is not named as such) + an additional penalty to spells with the [light] descriptor.

You can get a sunlight sensitivity from a feat chain that boosts the darkvision of fetchlings.

Advanced Race Guide
With a combination of strange shadow magic and chirurgery, your eyes are permanently modified to see farther in darkness.

Prerequisites: Fetchling.

Benefit: You gain darkvision 90 ft., but gain the light sensitivity weakness.

Part of a feat chain that grants see in darkness, which could be useful. Weak on its own.
