Races

1. **Humans**, one of the common races known for their adaptility in environment and situations.
2. **Dwarves,** a dominating species that lives in arid and rocky areas such as below surface and on mountain ranges. Known for their craftmanship they specialize in Fire, Earth and Metal magic.
3. **Elves, c**ompromises many sub-types of elves, deriving from one ancestor tribe that wielded all types of magic. Now all types only specialize in one form of elemental magic, rarely more than two. Fire, Water, Thunder, even Poison Elves. High Elves were known to be the progenitors and first to be created, followed by angels and humans with therianthropes.
4. **Therianthropes,** are Beast-like humanoids who are said to have derived from humans due to their adaptility. They have features similiar to animals and can derive in their form and species. Depending on the initial sub-species they can have natural habitats excluding the sea.
5. **Merfolk,** or uncommonly known as Kulullu (m) or Ninurta (f) are similiar yet different from Therianthropes. They live in the water and are commonly known to possess dual magic with one of them being from the water type. Long ago they were believed to have been monsters in the sea who managed to establish themselves as a dominant species like the ones on land. Many are reliant on their mercy for save sea travel.
6. **Angels,** a reclusive race that sometimes appear before certain individuals in other countries. They are known as messengers of all gods even though many religions oppose this belief albeit with reluctance. Their abilities include long range teleportation and cancelling out mana arts in larger areas so no one can dismiss their claim to be the gods right hand. It is not know where they hold their place of residence but on some high place like a mountain top.
7. **Daemons,** commonly mistaken with the mindless demons of the world. This race is shunned by the rest of the world due to the angels' negative picturing of them as violent, mindless and powerhungry. Like with the Angels not much is known about them as others don't fathom the idea to interact with them and cross the angels. In their home country it is believed they guard something known as the Gates of Kur but it is not known what it is. Daemons can live as long as angels and create offsprings with others species and therefor creating one of the most mixed societies to date.
8. **Malkuth,** on the former lands of the First Sumerian Nations live the Malkuth. Believed to be created from stone by an unknown force they try to invade the mountain nations of Idaris. Litleis known about their society or norms of life but it is known that they can be divided in 11 races including their king.
9. **Giants,** a race believed to have gone extinct. Legends say they possess unfathoble strength to be able to tople mountains and crush entire armees of monsters who lived in the era of chaos. How they vanished from the world isn't known except for the belief they mingle among the other races. They can be extinguished by their exotic skin and metallic rings around their limbs and throat.
10. **The Origins,** also called the Progenitors or Gods are said to have been the first ones to come to the world and vary depending on the culture. They are rarely active in the worlds and only communicate via their priests, saints or other chosen ones. Some can even receive a blessing from them, knowledge or other form of support in favour of service.
11. **The Forgotten Ones,** races and species that were intelligent but vanished with almost no trace. Including dragons, Asura, Jinn, Valkyries and others.
