Races

Welcome to the Race Page!  Below are listed many of the different types of races that you can choose from for your character.  Races with many subclasses are listed beneath the initial list.

Elves

The Elvin Race much like the Humans have a Diverse Race and multiple Cultures. Elves do get along with humans although some do not. Unlike the Humans they do not have unlimited potential. But unlike humans they are Faye touched naturally having magic abilities and can use and wield it fairly well. Elves anatomy is different from humans but similar in some ways aside from the slightly long but curved ears. They are lean and at times very beautiful compare to regular human beauty and are seemingly more intelligent of the world. Unlike their human counterparts they have variable size pointed ears each Elf is also different in skin, eyes, hair color, ears, and height. You rarely see a very masculine elf but that solely depends on the elf themselves. Their cultures range depending on the environment they live and due to that live differently among another. Some elves do not get along with other races having specific hates or reasons to their dislike of that race such as Humans, Demons, Mazoku, and even other elves. Although not a very War like race elves have known to fight great wars protecting their homes and the planet whose ether sustains their life force and longevity. One Great War was at Lunar now known as the Crimson Island. Elvin blood and human blood was shed on that land both human and elf wishing to control the large continent but now so much blood has been shed and the war forgotten that visiting it for either Elf or human leaves them in sorrow to see all this death that taints a once great flourishing natural wonder. It is the cursed island of the races and is said to be bad luck to cross on it for either race. Elves also from such times have learned to become excellent craftsmen in making tools or equipment to signify their races specialty at arms. When doing so they have made it light for even them to carry also forging the two Elvin Blades the Dark Sword and Luminous. These weapons are considered sacred weapons one forge of the Drow and the other Forged by the High Elves made for the chosen Warrior who can wield both from Ancient times. This was set in a shrine in Hope Island a fable Island where both elves and humans once co-exist before the island became sacred for all to be in neutral ground.

Unlike the other races Elves have sensitive senses. They can hear very easily and even hear the faintest of whispers even hear the muscle in a smile. They also have perfect vision seeing 20/20 making them great Archers. There sense of touch is delicate the smallest of detail to an object they can sense. They even have a warning sense to powerful Magics knowing not how strong the person is but that the magic intensity. Due to their light form Elves can only carry light gear and medium gear. They never seem to wear rather heavy gear like other races do and aren't as strong as most Races. Elves are also rather small normally the size of human women and range to as tall as 5'6" 5’9” in max height to as small as 4'. Another thing about elves is their dislike of Vampires. They are to them an upset in the natural balance of Nature being undead and yet living let alone a Vampire who turns a Elf to their side is driven mad and insane attacking anything she feels as a threat or opposing them. The madness is so impure they nearly beg for death. However if they drink the blood of the Master they loose the affiliation of their people and can never again sense or feel the environment they were raised in and eventually die out of depression. It is also known that Elves and Vampire, Demonic, Mazoku, and Succubus cannot mate to have their children. The children become derange and diabolic. It is also shameful for a Elf to mate with dwarf and the other four dark races because their children will be outcast to the Village or Clan. Each Elvin society has a Monarchy meaning a Female leads their people as an Elder unless chosen other wise. Some are either of a different society choosing either male or female or like the High Elves royalty who can take the throne. Each Elvin society is different so it's best to know which you wish. All pay respects to the High Elves of Rivendale who are Elvin Royalty and thus all pay respect to the Ancient Elves who came before them though few disregard the High Elves who claim to be of royalty because of Elfar favoring them.

The most elves can live to be id 2,000 yrs old although Elves mature the same rate in years as Humans they age 1 human’s appearance year every ten years for example a Human of a mature age of 18is in reflection the appearance of an elf who is 180 years old. Thus in reference to human appearance an elf just has ten years to be of equivalent appearance of one human year. At 500 years old they remain to appear that age of a young adult for another 500 yrs. At 1,000 they begin to look like and adult and remain so till 1,500 were they begin to age and grow old although still have no age problems like humans of an old age. Some Elves are exceptional in age and age but never look older than an adult though this is a rare case. These are very rare Elves usually comprise of Alfar, Damier, Drow, and High Elf.

Natural Race Abilities: Each Elvin Race has a different assortment of Natural abilities and Natural immunities. There for not all Elvin Races are the same yet all Elvin races can make more than the base Movement of 4 and add their Reflex Bonus to their Movement since they are so lean and swift.

Humans

The Humans of Everlynn show to be the most dominate species of the world having spread themselves through out the continents of Everlynn. This outspread could have been since human existence long ago during the olds wars of the races and the god wars. Now in present day Everlynn humans have evolved and civilized themselves in vast cities or small villages creating tools to overcome the world of Everlynn. The day and age of man has advance both in science and magic expanding their reaches far beyond other races would have expected them to do.

Humans of Everlynn vast in shape, size, gender, skin color, traditions, customs, and beliefs their diversity is so large it is hard to classify all the different types of Humans. There are Morgans who live in the continent of Morganna the continent where both High Elf and Humans live. Nocturans who live in the dark continent known as Noctura who is said to be influenced by the evil emanating from the land although they are not as different as any other humans. In Negocia live the Negocian, Damiers and Nepharians whom live in simple harmony among another. Ryujin also known as the People of the Dragon live in Neo Ryuu and appear to have orient features. As those of Midguard are Celtic in appearance.

In all their diversity humans are meek compare to the supernatural or magical abilities of other races yet in all respects their lack of such abilities excel them in survival and adapting to almost any environment. Humans seem to have a limitless potential even when they have reached their limit they find even more ways to advance. Because of this some races fear that humans may endanger their own existence and find their way of thinking dangerous to their societies.

There are distinctly several various types of humans yet their continent name represents their culture and customs. Of the humans each continent has a human population or territory. These places will show to be inhabited by humans that have venture or made small colonies in order to live in a different environment or because of exploration. These small exploring towns eventually become villages, cities, and some times kingdoms in foreign territories.

Humans in some senses have different religions, beliefs, cultures, customs, and appearance. The only way to distinctly know if some one is human is by paying close attention to their features and scent. Humans above all other races hold now natural weapons or traits. Neither do they have any natural magic traits that could assist them in the magical realms around Everlynn. Yet humans are capable in learning magic and some times have offspring born innately with magic.  Of all the races humans seem to be only ones who are capable of having offspring with other races with out difficulty. However these Half Breed Children are some times bare traits similar to both parents. This oddity some times gets them shunned or Marked wherever they go. It is seldom seen for a half breed to be accepted by their inhuman society as few see them as the forbidden fruit of inconsiderate parents.

Humans’ ability to be able to breed with many of the other races and their innate knack for survival and advancement shows that the Human Race is the most versatile of species. But because they lack in natural abilities and magic it also leaves them vulnerable since their life span is very short. To some Races this lost of longevity is a mystery to others it is the curse of the God War placed upon Humans who were once called by a different name in the past.

Half Breeds are considering abominations among some of the people among the races they are birth by. The tragic tale begins when in the War of the Gods that any breeding of intermixing races aside from their own was forbidden. This was said due to the binding of a Blooded (Immortal) and a God which created a child of unfathomable and yet uncontainable power. Another tale was of a Half Dragon Half Phoenix child whose parents disregard the laws of their clans and let love flourish. There are many tales and many stories of ancient lore of half breed children but it is usually rarely a happy ending and more a tragic tale. Very few succeed in living either slain by their parent’s people or depression causes suicide. Yet now in an era where the war is over and most rebels against the old ways to form new traditions and customs most Half Breeds have a chance. Yet there are those who cling to the old ways.

A child of half his mother and half his father of a different race is at times not a happy childhood fill with abuse, mistreatment, and otherwise used circumstances. Some hold hatred among the race or races of their parents for their mistreatment. Others are used merely as pawns to perform tasks or work for their mother or father’s race gaining some respect of their people but no better than a beggars. And then there are those who are alone walking the path of a lone wolf among his or her people and seldom keep in contact or cares of them. The view of a Half Breed depends on their upbringing and child hood not all tales are tragic some are simple and easy because parents tend to be disowned or excommunicated from a clan or village therefore raising their half breed child on a farm or outside of the world’s knowledge.

Half breeds tend to find acceptance among Adventurers seeing their gifts of being both their parent and their people a positive effect on these wanderers. They some times even become Wanderers or Adventurers to find their place among the vast world. This tends to lead half breeds to be mocked by those of their race being marked with very little difference compared to their true people. The road of the Half Breed is a lonely one and it is also known not many even survive birth depending on the mixing of race and blood. Half Breeds can vary in size, hair color, skin color, eye color, texture, build, merits, and flaws. Because of this they say a Half breed lives a tormented life because even their body and soul being half of each parents race torments and mocks them. This is difficult on the mind of the Half Breed depending in their raising.

 

<Note> Most Half Breeds are the cross between human and another race. Intermixing of two different races other than human has proved traumatic and forbidden by the gods. Though there are a few who travel and exist in the land and are considered rare creatures and only highly requested or restricted. Even if you see one that may be that the person was an old transfer from the original game and is a person whom has proven since that game and this one to role play them well. This is not favoritism or show of cheating. These people have proved in the last game when the game use to permit such half breeds that they can role play these characters correctly and are trust worthy. Hence these people were permitted to keep these rare types of half breeds other than the ones stated here. Also on that note Half Breeds are request only here in this game. Please use the Contact Us Link to send an email requesting to be Half-Breed and please submit a paragraph or more of a back ground of the character being a half breed and why you think you would make a good half breed in the role play environment.

Natural Abilities: Half Breeds gain the Half Blood Trait making them uniquely with flaws and merits of their parent’s racial heritage.
