Races



Androids: An artificial race created by the Earth Pantheon. They served as servants, assistants, and soldiers for the Arisen and his realm. Many fought in the War of the Gods, but some fled instead or were hidden. Androids today are still often tied to the Earth Pantheon, but many have rejected their heritage to pursue their own fate.

Centaurs:  Warrior-nomads from the steppes of Ergenekon. Nomadic herdsmen and talented archers.

Drow: Anti-elves that decided not to kidnap children. Usually die after childbirth, and focus heavily on science. Live on Wedselia. Smart, nimble, and charming, but frail and wimpy.

Dwarves: Short people made from rocks (but look like real people) and typically good at crafting. They don’t all like alcohol, just all the normal ones. Hardy, wise, but standoffish.

Elves: Short people that live on the moon and kidnap children to make more elves. Tend to be immature as a side effect of eternal youth. Nimble, smart, yet frail. Immature.

New gnomelings are laid with several layers of keratin and calcite protecting them before emerging months later.
