I am not accepted ANY cross-bred creatures.
If you have an idea for a race that you do not see in this list, PM me about it and we'll discuss adding it to the list.
Animal
You can be any animal imaginable, ranging from snow leopard to domestic cat, from wolf to maltese chitzu. I would imagine, however, that if you have an animal as your character they would have slightly higher intelligence than normal. It also must be stated that they cannot speak the human tongue without learning it. If your animal is a bird, then it is the one and only exception to the rule of things never having wings till they reach the rank of Half Angel. However, the bird cannot fly far (ie. over too far a distance) until that rank. Animals can be any allegiance.
Centaur
Centaurs are a race of creatures that are part horse and part human. They have the torso of a human connected to where the neck of a horse would normally be. Their nature is one that is stuck between two worlds, the world of horses and the world of humans. They have an unruly, untameable nature but still many join armies in pursuit of gain. They make better cavalry than humans riding on a horses ever will. One mind is better than two.
Chimera
The Chimera has a lion's body and head, a snake for a tail and huge bat wings (note: you can't have the wings till Half Angel rank). Chimera's are far larger than a normal lion, easily taller than a human. From their lion's head they can breathe a long jet of blazing, powerful fire and their snake-tail has deadly poison. They have often been associated with natural disasters and they are said to have the personality of a volcano. Chimera's can be any allegiance, but please, when you are choosing their class, be realistic. I doubt they'd be great archers.
Dwarf
A dwarf is a short, stocky humanoid. Dwarves are very much like humans, but they do not feel either extreme heat or extreme cold, and therefore can be found wearing the same ceremonial clothes wherever they go. They are craftsmen, and fashioned many of the greatest places in the world, for example, the Diamond City. They are better at craftsmanship than battle, but when war calls they do not shy away from it. Their superior weaponry prove a match for any army, but they prefer to use weapons that match their stature, mostly these weapons are clubs and axes, as swords and bows tend to require a gracefullness that is outlandish to them.
Dark Elf
Dark Elves are tall and lanky with long, pointed ears and blue grey skin of varying tones. They often have dark coloured eyes, dark blue or grey being the most common. Their hair can range from black to white and all shades in between, but they are not known to have blonde or brown hair. Can be any allegiance. Dark Elves have a long and ever lasting grudge against the Light Elves, and most people aren't aware of the origins of it. Dark Elves have longer lives than humans, but they are not immortal. Dark Elves, unlike their Light brethren has come to accept the fact that they are a dwindling race. They have intigrated into the society of humans.
Light Elf
Light Elves have bright blonde or white hair, pale skin and pale blue or green eyes. These eyes are usually very strong and piercing. Light Elves are more secluded than Dark Elves, and are mysterious to most humans as they often don't join in the wars. Due to their secluded nature, Light Elves are one of the rarest races. They have a longer life than Humans, but they are not immortal. Light Elves can be any allegiance. They have a deep hatred of Dark Elves.
Fairy
Fairies take the form of a human man or woman, but they can change their size. They can be small enough to sit inside a flower, or large enough to be a tall human, though no taller than that. Fairies are the most beautiful of all the races. Many humans have often fell in love with fairies and sometimes the fairies might even fall for a human. Fairies do not go near iron. Iron is a natural poison to them, and contact with their skin infects them. Fairies feel close to humans and often guard and watch over them. Though the majority of fairies are peaceful, they make the greatest archers of all the races if they use their war skills. They can be any allegiance.
Fallen Angel
Fallen Angels can live forever. Their physical appearance is as differing as humans and it is said that they once lived on a higher plain. However, they have been banished from that land for whatever reason and now they live in the north of this world. The Youle Forest, as it is closest to what their old world was like. Fallen Angels often work towards redemption or they might want to stay in Lilan. Fallen Angels can only be part of the Fallen Angel allegiance.
Griffin
The Griffin is a creature with the body of a lion and the head and wings of an eagle (though you will not get wings until you reach the rank of Half-Angel). As the lion is the king of the beasts, and the eagle is king of the birds, the Griffin is very majestic and powerful. It is the symbol of divine wisdom. The Griffin is the wisest of all the races, they also possess great power in their front talons and beak. They can be any allegiance.
Human
Humans are the most diverse and common race. They have many different types of physical appearance, mostly depending on where they hail from. Humans are the building blocks of any army and make up the majority. They are a fast spreading race, always looking for more land to claim and populate and spread their culture. Humans can be any allegiance.
Mermaid(man)
Merpeople are aquatic creatures with the head and torso of a human and the tail of a fish, shakr or dolphin. Merpeople often sing to people on the shore or in ships and cause them to be distracted by their work and many walk off decks to their doom or cause shipwrecks. Other merpeople are more human loving and rescue them from shipwrecks. Merpeople remember forever and if they are scorned by a human, or by a creature from any other race they will not stop until they are drowned. It is not unheard of for a human and mermaid to fall in love, but it is a love that can never truly work and it always ends in disaster. Merpeople often foretell of rough storms ahead.
Minotaur
Minotaurs are creatures that are half man and half bull. It has the body of a human and the tail and head of a bull. They are ferocious and unruly and often armies refuse to employ them as they can sometimes be a hinderance to their own people. Others employ the minotaurs for their brute strength and amazing skills with blunt weapons and axes. Minotaurs can be any allegiance.
Satyr
Satyrs and Satyresses are half goat, half human creatures that roam across the mountains and woods. They are often associated with frolicking, flirting and sex drive. Satyrs and Satyresses are very prone to falling in love and sleeping with Humans and other creatures, and other creatures are often drawn to the Satyrs flirtful nature and sexual ways. Satyrs and Satyresses journey naked. They make great Bards, but it is not unheard of that they would learn how to wield a weapon. They can be any allegiance.
Sphinx
The Sphinx is a creature with the head of a human, the body of a lion and the wings of a great bird (though you cannot get wings until you reach Half Angel rank). Sphinxes are often associated with guarding a particular pathway or entrance and are often employed by armies as guards. Sphinxes, when guarding pathways and not employed by an army, tends to riddle travellers before they can pass. If the traveller answer correctly they pass if not, sometimes the Sphinxes eat them, other times the Sphinxes merely make them find another pathway.
Vampire
Vampires are creatures that feed on the blood of other creatures. They are human in appearance, as they once were Human, save they usually have black hair, red eyes and pale skin. A Human catches the vampiric disease when bitten by a vampire. Vampires are like Humans in most ways except for the fact if they starve themselves from blood then they cannot face sunlight. When they have drunk blood they can face sunlight like any normal Human. They can be in any allegiance but they are often feared and disliked by Humans.
Werewolf
Werewolves are creatures that act like Humans save for every full moon they shape shift into a wolf-like creature. Werewolves are born werewolves and their offspring will be undoubtedly Werewolves, a normal Human, however, cannot become a Werewolf from a bite, like with the Vampire. When a Werewolf is in its wolven form it recognises neither friend nor foe and will attack and kill everyone alike, even people they have known their entire life. They do, however, respond to the call of their own kind and on full moon nights you can hear them howling in the distance. But you don't want to be near them. They have heightened senses of smell and hearing and are excellent hunters. Werewolves can be told apart from normal humans in the day by their bright yellow eyes. They can be in any allegiance.
