RACES SECTION PART 2 VOMPYRES [hider=Vompyres]Race/Ethnic: Vampires (Vompyres) Average Appearance & Characteristics: A vampyric nocturnal like race that does not feast on blood. They rather feast on the negative energy given off by beings. Like vampires, they cannot be exposed to the light or their skin will burn up. Racial Abilities: Have the ability to absorb negative energy since it is their primary feeding source. Due to this, they believe they are the chieftain founders of the art known as Atharva. Founded the ability known as Dream Scathing. Life Expectancy: 5,000 years roughly Appearance: TBA Home Planet: Trylsvana Magic Systems Used: Atharva Description & History: Vompyres are similar to vampires, but do not drink blood of their prey. They do attack their prey negatively though cannot convert another being into being a Vompyre while Vampires are able to convert their victim into a Vampire after they bite them. Vompyres instead prey on beings that give off strong negative energy. These beings often target those who are violent, ill intent or people who have evil intentions sapping them of their negative emotions and draining them of their lifeforce so they can feed themselves to stay alive. They do not eat regular food nor do they rely on it for their own survival. They live their lives either normally as bounty hunters or mercenaries hunting those who are involved in criminal activity and help track fugitives to feed upon their negative thoughts. Some have been known to become criminals or be involved in criminal activity to fill their quota for the energy they starve for. While others who have evil intentions cause nightmares so that they can feed upon those beings who are having nightmares by manipulating their dreams through what is called Dream Scathing or Scavenging dreams that where nightmares could easily happen. Dream Scathing is a powerful process that separates the good and evil consciousness making it easy to cause bad dreams on their target. Most Vompyres due to being nocturnal creatures only prey during the due to light being harmful toward them aside from those who have mated with a race that isn’t affected by light exposure. Their common enemies during the nocturnal hours are both the Vampires and the Werewolves where each of the three on the Planet Tryslvana have formed nations respective toward each race's culture. The Vompyres established their nation called the Kingdom of Avethelia. Avethelia is the cult leader of the Vompyre nation and hates both Galahanzer of the Werewolf cult along with Drausius of the Vampire cult. The Vompyre cult has the largest syndicate of vigilante organizations and are often less involved in criminal activity unlike the other two groups. They also harbor the most powerful and largest mercenary and bountyhunter guilds in existence. Avethelia despite being a strict toward his militants is benevolent toward the common people. Like the Nekrians, Vampires, Werewolves and several other races this race believes in their own set of deities which are considered lesser gods by other various religions. Vompyres are a common enemy of the Human race since Humans are the easiest to prey on when it comes nightmares. Due to their greedy nature and ambitious resolve they are the most common known to cause war, political disputes or public disturbances. Some other races amongst the Humans do not like Vompyres and consider them a threat to society.[/hider] ARKADIANS [hider=Arkadians]Race Name: Arkadians Average Appearance & Characteristics: A humanoid like race which breathes neon base gasses, bears an angelic like part on top of their earlobes, They do not age after reaching adulthood, but their organs eventually die off whereupon they die of natural causes.

They exist on a planet known as Arkaya which was set several lightyears away from the Human planet Gaea. The very origin of the Arkadian race is unknown. Many find their existence at the time to be nothing more than mythological. The planet they live on Arkaya somehow mysteriously disappeared from the Universe. What happened to it or the Arkadian race is unknown. Humans have discovered a humanoid type race that is super strong in both physical and mental strength. This race has two hearts and is said to have blood that is normally purple when it comes into contact with the air in the outside. They inhabit a region of Gaea which is polluted by neon base gasses. Normal mortals like Humans cannot even get close to the region without suffocating themselves. Somewhere within a barrier projected by a whirlwind it is said is where they live since that is the area that is plagued with the neon base gasses. Other features about this race is they have regular human like ears, but a feathery like body part that stems from their earlobe which is said to be used for telepathy. Like the Angelian race they also bear angelic like wings that they keep hidden out of sight. Arkadian technology was Magitech based though they worked with some Ether-Tech. Since the mastermind behind all that is magic in the Universe Gaea is set is also an Arcadian and also developed the thesis behind most of the ideas used in most technologies, As aforementioned before, Ether-Tech was originally proposed by this expert scholar of the Arkadian race. Reishin Primavalthera. While his father developed the interior design meant to protect the Tree of Life, Reishin his son looked to revolutionize technology for all the people living on Arkaya at the time. Arkadians lifespans are all, but unpredictable and their life expectancy is immeasurable on most scales. Most are known to live five hundred to a thousand years at least. They do not age and are considered a perfect structure. Their skin composition is so complicated that not even scientists can explain why they do not age. Arkadians really look no different from humans. Though they never grow old on the exterior on the interior they age and their organs eventually start to stop functioning whereupon they die of natural causes.

Their pointy ears are usually half the length of that of an elf with some exceptions. Some believe that this race was the fusion of an Elf with a Phaedrian though no evidence could support this claim since no one can prove that the Phaedrians even existed after The Great Collapse. The Nedre race is a very intelligent race and is also stronger in build than the elves. Like the elves they have superior speed and dexterity where they can hit a target from almost a mile away with a bow. Unlike the elves, they have visionaire or insanely powerful depth perception where normal beings couldn't see beings from such great distances.

Though they live where Angelians are located, they are often hunted down by Angelians or turn into slaves by the race. Other races have been known to enslave these beings as well. Angelians who do not have the capability to fly due to their small and fragile wings are also classified under this race.

Life Expectancy: 4,200-6,000 years Appearance: TBA Home Planet: Celestia Magic Systems Used: Elemental Magic, Holy Magic Description & History: A very mysterious race that is in existence that no one knows how their existence came to be. There aren't very many records if any at all that speak of the Angelians and how they came into Gaea. Angelians have a lot of human like traits and features though they are called an angelic type of race due to their angel like wings they bare on their backs. They are a very religious race who honors their Mother of Creation they call Eternia or "The Eternal One" and their Father of Creation they call Forthal or "Fatherly One". The religion established by the Angelians believe in the system of duo theism, or two divine beings that were responsible for the creation of their world and the Universe. The most popular religious group in the Kingdom of Eden, the nation of the Angelians, are the Eternians or the followers of Eternia and Forthal. The Church of Eternia in the southern part of Gaea is one of the most famous religions around. Some deem it even the very first religion of Gaea since even humans seem to be followers of it. Unlike the Church of Zoranait which believes in monotheism, the Church of Eternia believes in duo theism or two gods that brought about the existence of their planet. Eternia was called the Goddess of Life whereas Forthal was called the God of Death. It is believed that the one they call Eternia is the same one the Phaedrians called Hemera and that Forthal is the very same one the Phaedrians referenced as Nyx. Many believe that the Angelians are strong believers in ancient Phaedrian customs, because a lot of their holidays were similar to Phaedrian customs especially honoring the Fallen Ceremony held on the same day the Phaedrians held their St. Nyx Day which was a day they spent honoring the dead. They also believe that St. Magdalene was the savior of their planet who was a Phaedrian according to ancient texts that was the leader of the alliance that fought the axis allegiance of the Harken.[/hider] DRAGONITES [hider=Dragonites]Race/Ethnic: Phaedrians (Dragonites) Average Appearance & Characteristics: A humanoid like race that looks similar to Phaedrians that has dragon like features which they hide from society.

These creatures have been known to transform into dragoons or dragon-like humans who are basically humans that have dragon-like wings. They usually keep their real identity a secret to almost everyone since they have been persecuted and enslaved before by races in previous times. This group is very religious, but unlike their Phaedrian counterparts believe in monotheism where they believe Sigma is their idol God. Sigma according to a lot of ancient texts was the original creator of the Universe though many have given him a new name, because of the fact they thought he would not want his name ever to be remembered. The Dragonite race on the other hand continues to refer to him by his original name though some question if he was male since his gender could never be proven. Sigma, known as "The Divine One" or "Progenitor" is the one the Dragonites worship building the Temple of Sigma in his memory. They think many races have forgotten the existence of this being and that the being should be honored. The Dragonite race established religion they call The Revelation. The Revelation movement is controlled by Oracles who believe that Sigma is the one divine being that gave life to everything. Some humans have been known to be a part of The Revelation and it is another religion which tends to clash with all the others.

They possessed supernatural physical and mental abilities that completely surpass all other races. These highly intelligent beings are even more intelligent than the most educated human being. It is said they could even take a form of that of even pure energy. The legends say that they intervened on behalf of the other races in order to end the tyrannous reign of the Harken. They would settle and colonize the world over the following centuries establishing a civilization all to their own. But in relatively short time, it too disappeared without a trace of evidence of its existence. Most of the Phaedrians are thought to have perished during an event known as the Great Collapse, while some historians maintain that the survivors fled Gaea and returned to their home world. There are sub races of the Phaedrian race known as the dragonites, harpies, ect. A lot of their technology is thanks to the Arkadian race. If an Arcadian scholar by the name of Reishin Primavalthera would have never delved deeper into the sophistication of scientific marvels, space travel and advanced technology wouldn’t be possible. Phaedrians didn't look that much different than their peers known as the Arkadians.[/hider] MAHZOK [hider=Mahzok]Race Name: Mahzok Average Appearance & Characteristics: Racial Abilities: The ability to use forbidden Atharva such as Repro and Demon Magic.

The Mahzok demons formed the Underworlders Organization or the Underground Shadows so that they could ensure that peace reigned over Gaea. However some to this day have been known to act on their own ambition where now the Eternal Seven is now collapsing only leaving a few remnants of it to remain toward their initial goal. Some have formed anti-human groups that hate humans and live outside the human influence. Ever since the collapse of the Lumina Kingdom, the whereabouts of the Eternal Seven is unknown at this time. Some guess the group disbanded after the collapse losing their faith in humanity. Some believe they may be plotting revenge. The Mahzoks worship the God of Wisdom otherwise known as Thraanphal and are an establishment of monotheism. The Cathedral of Thraanphal is one of the largest churches in the world of Gaea and is widely respected by many. Though some of the Thraanphalian believers tend to clash with the Church of Eternia and the Church of Zoranait when it comes to religion. Their belief is that the knowledge of their forefather was the chieftain belief of all living beings where he wanted them to install themselves with various knowledge to evolve themselves with it.

They are no different than a human when it comes to looks. These beings can reach supersonic speeds with ease though they tend to eat more than an average human due to energy consumption. Their energy is consumed at phenomenal rates meaning they have to stop for something eat after extended travels.

This race was rumored to be born with innate magical powers, but some researchers say this race only gained its abilities through the system of magic the Salecians installed known as the Tower of Yggdrasil. Whether they have innate magical abilities outside the influence of this tower is yet to be seen. It is known that normal humans do not have the ability to use magic. Some of these beings are said to be now residents of Gaea, but their so scarce it is hard to say whether they live on Gaea or not. They are no different than normal humans aside from their ability to adapt to their surroundings without any other means being necessary and their healative and regenerative abilities.

Nekrains, Elves and Slyvans are basically the only races that support the werewolves. All of the other races tend to be suspicious if not aggressive towards them, considering them bestial barbarians. Humans, vampires, and vompyres are particularly known for hating werewolves Werewolves live where they can. Some are forced to live on reserves, other live in citadels with other werewolves only designed to protect them from everyone else, others live with Nekrains, elves or Slyvans, while others still put up with there abusers and try to blend in or hide in other races societies. [b]Race Name: Cruxis[/b] Average Appearance & Characteristics: Cruxis look humanoid except their true appearance is a blue sleek body which has eyes, but they do not have mouths. It seems they communicate with each other via telepathy when in that form. Why they prefer to look humanoid is unknown. Their blood is not red and is instead the color black. It turns a dark purple when it comes into contact with oxygen. They breathe a variety of air types such as hydrogen, nitrogen, oxygen and even carbon dioxide.

They also have the innate ability to materialize weapons out of thin air using their sophisticated device called an Energy Sphere. Their Energy Sphere can be crafted into a variety of weapons, but it is also used for long range detection which can sense aura with ease making it hard for other beings to suppress their aura so they cannot be found. They are masters of the art of Resonance Magic which they use for not only offensive capabilities, but sometimes even everyday needs. Like the Mathua they can heal and regenerate, but not as quickly. They seemed to be various diverse when it comes to magical abilities, but they much prefer Psionics over all other systems.

Some say they've lived as long as the Sindel; however, there is no real evidence that supports this claim for the reason their ruins are hidden or they destroyed them so they could never be found and tried to adapt themselves to a lower life standard which their reason for doing this is very much unknown. They live on a planet that is dominated by the gasses of hydrogen and nitrogen. There are also areas that contain carbon dioxide and nitrogen, but is mostly consists of hydrogen. Since hydrogen is a flammable gas, many have adapted toward breathing other forms of gasses which are not known to explode so easily. The planet they live on is called Exphelius for short though it is named after their long known pioneer of space. This race seems to be very friendly and likes to share their knowledge with other races, but are not so friendly when you try to take their kindness for granted.[/hider] __________________________________________________________________________________________________________ RACES THAT WILL NOT BE ADDED YET VELIANS KHEMINIANS RUDORIANS (HAS NOTHING TO DO WITH RUDORIA KINGDOM) HARKEN EMANCIANS CRUXIS AMOBIA SINDEL GNOMES DWARVES RAGNANITE DEMONS NYMPHITES SADARIANS MIDARIANS ANTITYPES ASCADIANS XIANS
