Humans

Humans

The race of Men have become the most widespread race of all of Gelduran, their vastly different kingdoms controlling large chunks of land. Most Humans can look very different yet still belong to the same race. For example, the Men of Var-Azim, though different in looks are still the same race as the Men of Ellewall.

Humans are competitive in nature, and most Humans are conquerors at heart, always wishing to expand their borders.

They are an honorable race, that values prowess in combat over magic and diplomacy.

 

Human Subspecies

Halflings → Halflings are small humans that in size resemble Dwarves. Some even say that Halflings are the result of the coupling of Humans and Dwarves, though this is not true.

Halflings are laid back, humerous and welcoming of strangers. They much prefer sitting before a warm hearth with a mug of ale and a weedpipe than to be out in the wilds on an adventure. Halflings have hair growth, fur almost, on their arms and sometimes feet.

Some of the Halflings, those known as Changelings, have the ability to shift into other living creatures for a short time, though their number has greatly diminished over the years.

Amazon → The Amazonian Men are tall, strong and blonde haired men living in the thick forests of Var-Azim. They are quite primitive and have fierce female warriors who are often more respected than the men. They live in small huts made from fur, as is the clothes they wear. The Amazonians tend to keep to themselves but if any threaten their home they will attack without mercy. Amazonians speak a broken form of the Common Tongue and also speak their own language which the rest of Gelduran calls Amazonian.
