Playable Races
Six races are available at character creation, each with distinct appearance options and natural traits.
✠Human
Adaptable and widespread, humans are the most common race in the world. They carry no particular gifts or curses — only ambition. Their faces range broadly in shape and tone, their builds from slight to powerful. More than any other race, humans define civilization by sheer persistence.
Traits: Balanced across all stats
⚒Neanderthal
Broad-browed and powerfully built, Neanderthals are survivors of a harder age. Their heavy frames and stone-carved features speak to generations of endurance in unforgiving terrain. Slow to trust outsiders but steadfast to those they call kin, they make formidable warriors and capable hunters.
Traits: High strength and stamina
᛫Wood Elf
Slender and sharp-featured, Wood Elves move through the forest with a quiet certainty that borders on unnerving. Their angular faces, keen eyes, and refined builds are shaped by centuries of living among the trees. Patient observers and natural hunters, they have little tolerance for the noise of city life.
Traits: High agility and reflex
ΨLizardfolk
Cold-blooded and pragmatic, Lizardfolk see the world in terms of survival and utility. Scaled, heavy-jawed, and possessed of a tail they use as a counterbalance in combat, they are neither cruel nor kind by nature — simply efficient. They make their home wherever food is plentiful and threats are manageable.
Traits: High strength and stamina, tail body part
ᚢGrippli
Small, nimble, and wide-eyed, Grippli are tree-frog folk native to swamps and rainforests. Their mottled skin blends with bark and leaf, and they move in near silence when they choose to. Do not mistake their size for fragility — a Grippli cornered is a Grippli dangerous.
Traits: High agility and reflex, small frame
‡Grung
Stocky, bright-skinned frog-folk with wide mouths full of teeth and muscular legs built for leaping. Grung skin color marks social rank within their own culture, though outsiders rarely understand the distinctions. They are aggressive, territorial, and surprisingly organized for a race so often underestimated.
Traits: High strength and stamina, powerful builds
