**Necropolinarians** also known as **Ghouls**, are one of the species of Greater Earth. They are a species of living mortal beings that are subsequently members of the Lesser Species of the planet. Originating sometime during the Shadow Age. **Necropolinarians** exhibit limited intelligence, with the average Ghoul only having an IQ of around 70, making them one of the least intelligent sentinent beings on Greater Earth. They have no powers or abilities. They reside mainly on the continents of Qatima and parts of the South East regions of Africa, but have been known to live in other places of the world. They are are Carnivorus species that specifically feast on the the raw newly newly deceased sentinent beings, usually Humans. Necropolinarians have a Dark Soul and throughout the history of Greater Earth have aligned themselves with more intelligent beings of Dark origin or Intermediate origin such as Orcs, Goblins, Trolls, Relags, Moraheiners, Witches/Warlocks, Dividians, Soulwalkers Succubi/Inccubi, Voleketti, Vampires and Dalmarians. They are Crepuscular and thus usually prefer to come out during the Twilight hour.

## Origin

It is speculated that they originated in the Shadow Age sometime during 304,532 BCT. On the continent of Qatima, in the land of Rarn, which now constitues modern day Necropolis. **Necropolinarians** refer to themselves as **Ghouls** which is a second name for their species that many peoples of Greater Earth also use. It is unclear if they Evolved from another Species or were an original creation by an Aleudhrian or Adarian. Some speculation of their origin is that they were once Humans that were taken, tortured and mutated into mindless beings of servittude to the Dark forces, similar to what happened with many Ancient Elven tribes that became Orcs or many Elves during the Principium Age that rejected the will of their Light Soul choosing to believe in The Aleudhrian way, thus being slightly altered and mutated to becoming Dark Elves, not as much as Orcs but enough to distinguish all 3 groups. However, the notion that **Ghouls** were once Humans has about as much evidence as Witches/Warlocks being related to Humans, which turned out to be debunked following the Modern Age and the discovery of Genetics. Thus, the origin of Ghouls is a mystery like many other things in this world. Another theory that is more commonly accepted is that they were simply an original creation by an Aleudhrian Dark Lord, most likely Darazeki whom also was the same Aleudhrian who was responsible for creating Malhetti and helped Lamasthu and Utumnor to create Dark Elves, Orcs and Dalmarians. Considering the morphology of **Ghouls** are of a herd mentality, much like Orcs. It is simply thought that they were created to help bolster the ranks of many other Dark unions as to be simply lesser canon-fodder.

## Psychology, Genealogy and Linguistics

The term **Necropolinarian** is a deriative of two languages, Necro from the Human language Latin means Dead or Deceased Polinar is the Quaylatrin Elvish word for Eater or to Eat, therefore it could be translated to Dead Eater. This is due to the aspect of foods that **Ghouls** eat, as they consume the fresh newly deceased beings that are sentiment. Necrpolinarians do not refer to themselves as Necropolinarians, they refer to themselves as Ghouls and for the lands of which they inhabit they use the term to describe various sub-groups of their own kind like most peoples of Greater Earth, they speak primarily the Ghoulic Language, however they are known to speak other languages such as Tar-Balluia, Orcish, Darojkharg and even Dalmarian. Many Ghouls speak English and some other common languages of Greater Earth
