Races

Elves
An ancient and magical race, and the first inhabitants of Mittelrelm. Capable of great power, but very reliant on arcana, they take their divine heritage as the Divine's chosen spellweavers very seriously. Often arrogant, but wise and dedicated scholars, Elves value determination and mastery of one's chosen skill.

Orcs
Created by the Luminous Divines during their war against the infernals. Orcs breed and mature quickly, making them among the most numerous races in Mittelrelm. Strong, proud warriors, Orcs value selfless duty, loyalty, and strength of body and spirit.

Dwarves
Among the first inhabitants of Mittelrelm, created by the Luminous to give life to the mountains and mines. They built great cities into the mountains, connecting them with immense underground tunnels. In the deepest of these tunnels was the breach used by the Nathrezim demon lords to invade Mittelrelm.

Humans
A new race, existing for only a few thousand years, mankind’s thriving success is eyed cautiously by many, and resentfully by the Elves. With a thirst for knowledge and a hunger for adventure, humans have become central figures in most grand events since their creation.

Dragonborn
A 'lesser race' in the eyes of many due to their origins - the Dragonborn were created by the great Dragons as their servants. Almost universally fanatically loyal to their patron dragon, Dragonborn often travel the world on epic quests for their master. As the most intelligent servants of the great Dragons, they are just as often diplomats and merchants as they are fierce warriors; all dependant on what their Patron requires of them.

Tieflings
Spawned by the Demon lords during the War in Heaven as mindless slave warriors, Tieflings only became free-willed beings in their own right after the invasion of Mittelrelm. Gaining their freedom after their masters were defeated and fled, they have struggled to make their way in a world that often sees them as irredeemably evil.
