The Races of the World (CBD)

__TOC__
You also need to decide whether dwarf creation stories for other races are true or whether they are simply the views of the dwarves.
Humans are traditionally seen as a new race in the process of seizing power from the declining elder races of elves and dwarves, or as having already usurped them. This may be the case in your world, or you may have human lands existing far from dwarf and elf territory with little contact between them. Another interesting twist is to look at the earlier stages, when humans are still an upstart race in a world dominated by dwarves and elves.
