Humans are the dominant race in the campaign.  They are known for their adaptive nature and flexibility.

Human form at least 80% of the player population and are always available for character generation.  Most humans in the Misty Valley are from Euro or Germanic origins.  A few are from the Franco Empire.

Half Elves are the barely tolerated spawn of humanity's deadliest enemy.  The Elves.

They were born and bred for duties that are considered undesirable by elves but deemed too sensitive to entrust to their Thralls.  While most are loyal to their masters, a few have taken to rebellion.  Feeling a sympathy for Humanity.  If discovered, these Half Elves are considered 'flawed' and expendable.

Among humans, they are often viewed with open distrust and barely tolerated.  Some would say that they are tainted by the elves, and the only way to cleanse that taint is with the spilling of their blood.

Half-Elves fall into the 20% non-human characters.  They may not be available and players should check if the campaign is accepting non-human characters before characters are generated..

RACIAL TRAITS (Pick One)

The half orcs of Northshire, were originally born and bred by the Black Bloods who have conquered and hold the Misty Vale, west of North Shire.  The conquered humans of the valley were used as breeding stock to slate the Black Bloods carnal desires.  The spawn of this union were put to work as slaves in the mines of the Misty Vale.

Recently efforts from North Shire have liberated these mines.  While much of the population remained behind, a few have returned to the Misty Valley to see what life among the free humans is like.  The concept of a free human evidently an alien concept to slaves who have known nothing under the rule of the Black Bloods.

While they maintain their savage nature, the focus of this hatred is on those that have recently enslaved them.




The elves are master manipulators of blood and flesh.  The need for durable soldiers have given rise to a particularly effective Blood Thrall.  Using the ever flexible breeding stock of captive humans, they have mated them with the savage uncontrollable deep monsters known as Trolls.  The union has yields a particularly effective shock trooper.

Troll Kin, have enough troll blood in them to grant them impressive physical durability and resilience.  They maintain enough of their humanity to be manageable and directed to the bloody directives put to them by the elves.

Encounters with Troll Kin around Echo Point have led to the capture of several of these brutes.  They may become a great asset, if they can be re-educated to shake their thrall training.




It's not an uncommon belief that 'bigger' is better.  When you're the runt of the Black Blood Alliance and assigned all the undesirable chores, it becomes an even more common belief.  The obvious solution, is to spawn your own biggins with the captured stock of human slaves, the Goblins of the Misty Vale have bred Goblin Kin.

Bred and raised among the goblins, they maintain the Goblins cunning and uncanny skills for survival.  Wiry thin and strong, the Goblin Kin are large enough to fight the Goblin's enemies as equals.  These shadowy stalkers are indeed lethal predators.

The Sidhe are the collective community of Fey Creatures that exist in the world.  While they are ancient allies with the Elves, they have always been considered inferior and junior partners in the alliance.  Recent events have given rise to a faction of Sidhe that sympathize with the humans of the Misty Valley and question the alliance with the elves.

The Sidhe are considered 'Fey' and known as the 'wee' folks for obvious reasons.

Tiny characters take up a space of 2-1/2 feet by 2-1/2 feet, so up to four of these characters can fit into a single square. Tiny races typically have a natural reach of 0 feet, meaning they can't reach into adjacent squares. They must enter an opponent's square to attack it in melee. This provokes an attack of opportunity from the opponent. Since they have no natural reach, they do not threaten the squares around them. Other creatures can move through those squares without provoking attacks of opportunity. Tiny creatures typically cannot flank an enemy.

1rp Spell-Like Ability: Feather fall 1/day (caster level equals the sylph's total level).

Across the lands, the fallen of humanity are swept up to form a cheap and expendable slave labor force.  With the dwarves this is no different.  Entire generations of humans in their keeping have never known the light of day.

As incursions are made into the Dwarven holdings, some bondsman are freed and ally themselves with humanity.

Black Bloods

Dwarves

Elves
Simply put, Humanity's greatest enemy.  Agile, graceful, silent, with their nocturnal vision are all physical advantages that make them dangerous.  Add the experience gained from surviving centuries of existence with the greatest enemy one can face (other elves), the accumulated knowledge, cunning and planning that goes with it and you have a foe, you can only vaguely appreciate to fear.  The elves have learned and forgotten more than humanity's collective knowledge in the current age.

The more arrogant elves aspire to elevate themselves to divine stature.  Some would say that they are already there.

Elves are limited to 14th level Characters, and 9th Level for Character Class.  The 'average' elf with be a fifth level character.

Elves favor light weapons crafted of Glassteel or Mitheral.
