Common Races

Common races of Sillum

Kish - These are the men of Miraq, who are basically incredibly skilled knights. These people have tough, leathery skin and have antlers, as well as hooves on their feet and very furry legs. Their eyes are often large, and they have four arms on their torso which end in malleable claws that they can shape to their will, but they generally just use blades that they can infuse into their arms. Their chests are often bare, with scars engraved in them that show which community they are from. Their faces vary about as much as a human. Females do not have antlers, but are usually more skilled than men at being assassins, without all the ivory weighing rhem down. These things are about 6-7 ft tall, and live to about 250 years to 300.

Eritheal - These are the variants on the anubi that tend to range vastly in appearance. They tend to have unique elemental abilities mixed with the corrosive nature of necromancy, but commonly have a strong affinity with a specific element, on top of being able to change their form ever so slightly. They commonly represent hounds with sharp features, save for the ones with strong affinities. If they have a strong affinity, it can have a strong influence on their appearance as if they are infused with the element, or it can simply alter their appearance in an odd way, such as the head of a huskie. They are the offspring of Nymphs and Anubi.

Polarus - Polarus are large bulky people that tend to live in the mountains of Kinroha, underneath the tons of snow that are piled up upon the mountains. They are  theorized descendants of Ancient Humans, and generally have a natural affinity for ice. The majority of then are stupid, but make up for it in their unrivaled strength. Most are extremely hairy to be able to withstand the cold, but some simply have a hide thicker and harder to pierce than steel, or a fire affinity.

Cicalita - Cicas are generally cat-like lithe people, who have only recently sprung up. They tend to be extremely agile and are rumored to be the offspring of those dirty elves who were forced to extinction long ago, so Cicas themselves are often viewed with distrust and even hate just because of a tiny rumor. However, Cicas themselves are naturally tempted to be assholes in general, as well as most of them being great assassins. They have an underlying affinity for magic, especially illusion.

Porak - The Porak are the barbarians of the Locho, and are often brutes. They have bull heads, legs like that of a gazelle, and they are essentially covered in a chitenous hide of solid rock that is seemingly a part of them. They are renowned for their strength and arw generally 7-8 ft tall. No one really knows how long these fuckers live, for they generally get themselves killed at a young age doing something stupid.

Human - These are the inhabitants of the Kiran Empire, and are average humans, albeit thet are well known for their adaptability. They also tend to learn quicker than most other races, and take less magic damage than others.

Rikas - Rikas are the inhabitants of Oria, they can't focus long enough to learn the actual arts of magic so they turn to being warriorsz. They become incredibly strong, have a blue tint on their skin. They have a natural resistance to magic, and absorb a solid quarter of the mana they are hit with. The more mana they get, the stronger they get as well. However, if they get too much mana, they will blow up. They release their mana periodically in small doses, often as bursts of strength or with the snarter ones, projectiles. When they release their magic this there is often blue gunk leaking out of their large backs. These guys have turtle shells around their torsos that often seem to be ridged, miniature mountains, or a clean dome in shape for the females. When they get large enough the front side of their shell breaks, and the back eventually molds into the skin. They have built in valves inside of their back that leaks out mana at will so they won't explode. Thus pure mana is valuable, but is just treated as excrement by the Rikas and they generally release it into a pool in the bottom of the Orias that is seemingly infinitely deep, save for a blue glow down at the bottom. These monsters are generally around anywhere from 4 ft tall to a towering 12 ft tall, but it's only in rare cases that they are 12 ft tall. Average is 6-8. They seem to live for 200 years, as long as they keep their magic flow in check, and don't explode or die from other causes.

Neruk - These are the men of the Krimakian Republic, they are small, peaceful people who are around 3-5 ft tall and resemble small humans. They live for about 100 years. Due to their size they're often made fun of, but make amazing thieves. Some have a fantastic knack for engineering, and these men created the blimp.

Bombans - These are essentially dwarves, albeit they have two pairs of lungs, one is for oxygen and the other is for noxious gases that are often found in mining. These men are usually buff and burly,   and can lift small boulders with some strain. Calling them a dwarf is likely to get the shit beaten out of you. These guys live for a hefty 300 years on average. Their craft is anything involving blacksmithing, and armoring.
