Human

**DESCRIPTION**
A class of humanoids, settled in Mjoldor.

**HISTORY**
Following the Great Economic Depression of 1762, nomadic people known as **humans** originally settled in Mjoldor Valley.

The first record of humans follows the massacre of the nomadic army in 1764, whose blood from the carnage stained the ground and began the sickness that spread out from DemonRak. Following this event, King Shades of the Dokkalfar began smuggling human settlers out of the valley and transplanting them in what is now the modern city state of Elmundheim.

A separate tribe, known as the Illit, fled south and settled at the mouth of the valley, in what would become the massive trade city of Markalfar. The Illit were the first to make allies with their neighbors, the elves, and began open trade with them. In 1785, Markalfar was chosen to ambassador a mighty wall spanning 10 leagues which sealed of the Mjoldor Valley, and it was renamed Sal'Aum. The city became the guardian of the rest of the continent, driving back the dark forces that slowly crept out of Sal'Aum and eventually stifling it's progress altogether.

For the next 2000 years, humans began to thrive. City states like Elmundheim and Paranis grew tremendous in size, and during this time Mjoldor enjoyed much prosperity.

**Humans**, unlike the other creatures of Mjoldor, proved to be as industrious as the Dverger, and their reputation as craftsman and men of honor and valor grew. Sadly, they also proved to be treacherous and deceitful, and by 2002 humans were sneaking into Sal'Aum in an attempt to loot priceless magic artifacts that were scattered around by the elven armies who fell there. In 2002, it was reported that another manuscript had appeared in the human black market, supposed to contain the spirit of a powerful demonic demigod known as Skalt. Unable to allow such a thing to fall into human hands, King Shades sent out troops immediately to confiscate the manuscript, but it was found too late. A human by the name of Trevestor had unleashed the immortal, which took possession of him and gave him uncanny supernatural powers. When the troops reported back, dozens returned with injuries involving body parts turned to stone; the Dokkalfar forces were in shock and greatly feared Trevestor.

Fortunately, however, Trevestor disappeared after the incident and was never seen or heard from again. It was rumored that he copulated with another supernatural being - Lydia, Queen of the Lymia - and their offspring became gorgons, or medusas. These creatures were rare and even more rare did anyone ever live to tell about them.

Things were relatively peaceful for another 50 years, until the Dokkalfar queen Lun began a genocidal tyrade that killed 2/3rds of the human population and forever changed how humans treated elves and other creatures.

After the fall of Hexx, as Lun had renamed herself, humanity took hundreds of years to recover what was lost. As the Dokkalfar and Ljosalfar had either been decimated or gone into hiding, humans rose to take power and control over Mjoldor. By the time 4000 had rolled around, every King, chieftan or place of power was ruled by a human.
