Humans

### Descriptions

Humans are the most prevalent race in Loria , making up estimated 80% of the population but only being one of 20 noble races. Humans have diverse cultures and are often at war with each other. They are known to be the greediest of races but also the weakest both through magic and strength. Their strengths come from technology and ability to out reproduce all other races. Humans also have a tendency to forget the past and find themselves in endless cycles of repeating mistakes such as genocide. Although each Kingdom has a rich history most humans would not know of it or even care beyond their own families history.
