Human

Humans are one of the oldest races on Sera, with records indicating their existence all the way back to the beginning of creation. This is corroborated in religious scripture which implies they were created in the third year of creation. Regardless of their origins, they have spread throughout the world, becoming vastly diverse in ethnicity and cultures.

## Description

Humans vary greatly, with skin tones ranging from fair to dark in coloration, their eyes, hair, and other physical features also vary based on ethnicity. Generally, however, they can be categorized based on where roughly they live geographically.

### Seron

Those humans who live in Seron, as well as those in Irileth Salvation, and Aramak, are typically fairer in skin-tone, though the inhabitants of the Empyrean desert have tanner skin. They have hair color ranging from blonde to brown. They have a variety of hair colors.

### The Desertfolk

The Desertfolk, including those in Bedu, the former Empyreans, and those in the north of Haravayin, all typically have tan skin, black hair, and brown eyes. They are of roughly average height.

### Haravayin

In Haravayin, south of the deserts, the humans who live in the vast expanses of jungle are typically darker skinned, though it was also noted that they were not the only with these traits. They are typically shorter than average. They have black hair and bown eyes.

### The Novaen and Mowatoan Peoples

The Novaen's and Mowatoans have fair skin tones (though not as fair as the Monic), which are roughly similar in shade to the Desertfolk. They have brown eyes and black hair, they are slightly taller than average.

### Shinjian and Eastern Seronic Peoples

The Shinjians, Chang'an, and Boshin peoples are very similar in appearance, lacking the double eye-lid of the rest of the humans on Seron, other than this, they share black hair and brown eyes, but have similar fleshtones to Western Seronic peoples.

## History

The history of humanity is vast, and their direct origin is still unknown. What is known is that modern humanity is a direct descendent of the ancient Allanorians, who though nearly identical practically to humans, had vastly different biologies. Almost to the point of being a separate race.

The ancient Allanorians, however, vanished early on in the Second Age, leaving modern humanity to develop from their ruins. The ethnic differences begin here, according to several hypotheses within the Monic World. These humans developed differently, but generally expanded to otherwise dominate most of the face of Seron.

Much of the record of time, such as the measure of the ages, are based on human accomplishments. Perhaps the greatest was the foundation of the Monic Empire, a superpower so vastly powerful that it dominated much of the world for nearly 7,000 years. Even so it did not last.

In the modern age, humanity is fragmented, perhaps even more fragmented than any other race. They are split into petty squabbling kingdoms and tribes, yet even so they have come to rule much of Sera.

## Society

The Society of Humanity varies greatly on the culture discussed. Humanity is not, unlike many races on Seron, a monoethnic culture. Rather it is split into many ethnicities and many cultures.

### Seron

In Seron, there are many cultures, many of whom can be found in the former remnants of the Monic Empire.
