## Races

**Gnomes, Dwarves and Halflings**

This world’s lands are strange to those not from here; there are continents that is mostly grasslands and meadows and the rest of the world is covered in mountain ranges where the Dwarves mostly live. The Gnomes and Halflings get along well but the Dwarves keep to themselves, not even trading unless out of necessity. The closest star to this world is still very far away so there is less natural light. The vegetation here doesn’t grow large because of this and it’s thought that might also be why the races of this world are all small.

The Dwarves live not on the mountains but in them in great caverness cities that expand deeper into the ranges as their civilization grows so the oldest cities are the ones closest to the entryway with newer ones being deeper in. though most visitors to this world would assume more clout is given to the older cities; only those of high enough importance can move inward to the newer cities. The Gnomes and Halflings have integrated their societies and are welcoming to visitors; they have historically formed more communities rather than towns or cities to better focus on everyone’s needs but over the last decade there have been some larger developments and even their first city.

## Locations

pölyvalot; this city is a mix of Gnomes and Halflings that is somewhat isolated on the great grassland continent. Citizens of this city are more suspicious of the Dwarves because of their greater distance from the entry to the Dwarven continent. Bustling but mostly wooden buildings.  Koti; a mostly Halfling settlement located on the grassland continent far south of pölyvalot and is thought to be where the Halflings first came from. This settlement is welcoming to newcomers and the people of Koti like to stay put. Värit is a mostly gnomish settlement that is located on the meadows continent, the only major settlement on this small continent and is the closest to the known entrance to the Dwarven territory. Because of this, the people of Värit have the most contact with the Dwarves, but with how the Dwarves keep to themselves, that means seeing some every few decades. The people of Värit are friendly, this settlement is still expanding into the vast continent and the people are more adventurous than those of Koti.

Little is known about the Dwarven territory.

## **Brief history**

Dolrahtah is a younger world and one of the smaller ones. The races of Dolrahtah had a shared history for thousands of years before the Dwarves took to the mountains. The history of Dolrahtah is the most peaceful of all of Anemoia, with no recorded wars or major conflicts of its denizens. Most history on Dolrahtah is passed on through art; what has been seen in the Dwarven cities are vast scrawling depictions on the cavern walls and ceilings, the Gnomes and Halflings weave tapestry and use textiles to capture their history. Because of the harsher environment of Dolrahtah, expansion has only started in the past few hundred years for the Gnomes and Halflings and the dwarves have kept to their mountains. Because of this there is still lots to be discovered of this world so the more spirited people of Värit are always welcoming to travellers who wish to help them explore.

When the dwarves split off from the Gnomes and Halflings, they set out to the mountains that cover the vast majority of Dolrahtah and began to work their way down. Because of this their society became more and more distend as the centuries wore on to the point that the people of pölyvalot almost never see dwarves. When travellers do come to Dolrahtah and make their way into the Dwarven territories they are only able to get a few levels down. Dwarves value skills more than wealth and their constant move makes their environment more and more harsh; it’s said that even their beards are an evolutionary adaptation to help protect them from their mining trade. Dolrahtah is second only to Vallorrorr for wild beasts roaming the land so any explores should take caution; though the lands are less harsh then Vallorrorr, its low light can drain travellers even faster than the deserts of Vallorrorr.

Gender; there is little sexual dimorphism among the races of Dolrahtah but there not fully androgynous as the Elves, Dwarves all grow beards and long hair and have similar builds. Halflings are a matriarchy and gnomes while having the more distinct genders of the races their society is a meritocracy.

**Economy**; coins are used in Dolrahtah but there is not much trade to be had. Only simple weapons and armor is made here but potions up to rare can be found. Magic items are hard to come by, but they can be found.
