Races

Race (種族 Shuzoku) is a term used to describe the physiological species of beings.

## Magic-Born

Magic-Born (魔法の生まれ *Mahō no umare*) is an umbrella term for all modern lifeforms. Humans, demi-humans, spirits, and monsters all are listed as "magic-born" which refers to an existence that relies on a unique organ that regulates mana either close to their heart or in a different location. Humanoid magic-born possess the ability to perform intercourse and produce offspring regardless of features. However, this does not mean all magic-born are the same or equal.

Magic-Born fall under a spectrum known as the "Blood To Magic Ratio" that determine how reliant they are on their specialized organ. For example, an ordinary human's ratio would be 50/50, the organ is not necessary, however a loss of it would render them completely incapable of utilizing magic without outside means. On the other-hand something like vampires would have a 70/30 ratio, making the organ absolutely necessary for survival.

Magic-Born can also undergo unique alterations to their biology known as Evolution. Under these unique circumstances, those who undergo evolution experience immense changes to their mentality, biology, and powerset usually in the form of a skill evolution as well. Those who evolve might even experience something of a high in response to the sudden changes.

### Physical Lifeform

Physical lifeforms are those of which are entirely reliant on keeping their material bodies in tact. Loss of or fatal damage done to said bodies will result in death without outside intervention. Physical lifeforms lack both spiritual properties and spiritual qualities.

#### Humans

Humans (人間 *hyūman*) are a species that, although not particularly unique in any capacity. Possess an immense growth curve as well as an explosive population that outruns most species. Most humans lack any inherent abilities beyond the ability to utilize magic, but they do possess the ability to undergo evolution under special circumstances.

#### Demi-Humans

Demi-Humans ( 亜人 *demi hyūman*) is more of a classification than an actual species. It's an umbrella term fitted under the Humanity Recognition Act. Generally, Demi-Humans aren't actual humans, but due to possessing a capacity for sentience, sapience, and an ability to adhere to the legally binding contract put in place by human countries. As such, they are recognized as "legal humans" and will not be treated as enemies of humanity unless given proper reason to think otherwise. In the case of demi-humans, their inherent capabilities are all dependent on the race.

#### Magic-Beasts

Magic-Beast (魔獣 *Majū*) is a term used to describe animals that have undergone magicfication. As of current there are no more regular non magic animals, as such, Magic Beasts have become common place as typical livestock since they are usually easier to domesticate much like one would a cow or horse. The difference between magic-beasts and monsters, is that monsters sort of just appeared, or originated from a non animalistic source unlike magic-beasts who are derived from livestock animals among other naturally occurring species.

#### Monsters

Monster (魔物 *monsutā*) is a term used to describe lifeforms that originate from a source not of existing animals. Instead they appear from various sources, and their disposition towards humanity and human-like species can typically be described as hostile. Most lack any greater intelligence but there are the exceptions of which that possess immense intelligence. There are also other species listed on here that could have been placed under the demi-human category, however due to their nature, they are recognized as hostile lifeforms unsuitable for cooperation with international society.

### Spiritual Lifeform

Spiritual Lifeforms (精神生命体 *seishin seimei-tai*) are a type of being that has outgrown the necessity for a magic organ. This is through the process of converting every individual cell within one's body into something which can store mana, making the magic organ obsolete. A spiritual lifeform can also be an existence that never needed a magic organ to begin with, which usually only falls under beings such as full blown elemental spirits.

#### Elemental Spirit

Elemental (精霊 *erementaru*) are a race of spiritual lifeforms that can be found all throughout nature, albeit unseen, unheard, and usually unfelt. Elemental Spirits, if they wish to interact with the physical world, must first obtain a vessel or corpus that they can merge with or at the very least, latch onto as a medium.
