Races

Ancients[]

Ancients are a powerful race blessed by their lunar goddess with magic, wisdom, and immortality.

Arcanic[]

Arcanics, or Halfbreeds, are the children of human and ancient. Humans were an exotic pastime. Intelligent, amusing, and quick to worship. A mysterious force removed the last wall between ancient flesh and humans.

A human man and an ancient woman bore the first halfbreed child. A child of human face born in ancient lands. The mother of considerable strength was able to protect her child, who became the first arcanic, the Shaman Empress.

Many more arcanics were born, some looked human, many did not. The arcanics breed as quickly as humans and possess some powers of their ancient bloodline.

Cats[]

Cats are intelligent creatures, commonly thought to be spies and manipulators. A cat can have one or many tails, walk on two feet, and handle weapons. Some call themselves nekomancers and the most revered are the poets.

Human[]

Humans are believed to be a race cursed by the goddess for betraying her trust. They were forced out of the sea on legs and denied magic, though some female humans display mental powers that mimic arcane. The Cumaera are a religious organization that search for human females with these gifts. Most humans are taught to despise other races, though some still think back to the unity they had between themselves and arcanics.

Old Gods[]

A once powerful and destructive race, which were believed to have threatened the nature of the world. They were defeated and banished by the Ancients in a war thousands of years ago. Now, they wander this world as massive, but harmless apparitions. They are represented by a sideways eye, which mark offerings and cults that still worship them.

Oni[]

Oni are a race of humanoid creatures with brightly-colored skin and horns.
