(I hope.) When humans arrive at Avalia, their genetics and the energy mesh differently. They gain abilities from the elements around them in the world. I'd like if one element wasn't too crazily common. The manipulation includes being able to summon the element, use it as a weapon(ex: shoot fireballs), and the ability to withstand environments with it. Those who manipulate water can breathe within it while those who manipulate fire can withstand it without burning. Humans are extremely powerful in this world and widely feared/hated/sought out. In fact, they're forbidden. It is unsafe to be human.

They are most often very friendly creatures and prefer to stay in civilizations. However, there are those who stray off from groups. They speak English most of the time. Appearance-wise, they look very close to humans. Their irises tend to differ slightly. Unusual hair and eye colors are very common. Their wings tend to be wispy and thin but also vary in look and color. Their ears sometimes can look similar to elf ears, pointed but most of the time much smaller than elf ears. Male fairies tend to grow horns from their head. They tend to be absolutely beautiful in appearance. They age well and live double the life of a human. They dress in light-weight clothes, often incorporating leaves and flowers into their fashion as they absolutely adore nature. The women never wear pants or shorts as it is impolite in their culture. Women are always in some sort of skirt or dress. They never wear closed-toe shoes and always go toward sandal-type footwear. Fairies flourish in warm environments with the exception of winter fairies. Winter fairies are much rarer and an endangered species that live up in cold regions. They are able-bodied for their cold but still tend to dress in warmer gear. The women wear long dresses with warm socks underneath and boots in those groups. They have the old-age belief that males are to be the fighters and women the caretakers. Women raise the young, tend to crops and practice their healing abilities on their own kind and often other creatures. Men tend to practice more offensive magic that utilizes the nature around them and train to protect their kind. It was very often that fairies were called into battle before Aklenroth's reign as they were excellent warriors despite their peaceful demeanor and culture. Fairies are what keep forests alive. Their magic helps the flora and fauna grow and prosper. They are nature's caretakers. They can manipulate nature at will but it is something that must be learned from their younger years, being able to twist and control a vine at will if need be. They also are excellent at communicating with animals. They have the ability to heal wounds at will but cannot reverse death. The endangered breed of winter fairies can manipulate ice and snow around them whilst retaining their healing ability. A new breed of a fairy called dark fairies may be arising. Aklenroth has created efforts to create more creatures with the ability to control dark magic as it is one of the most powerful magic there is. He has been trying to bring fairies into their darkest selves to create powerful fairies that could assist him. It is unknown if he has been successful to most but he has made a few who have been twisted mentally beyond repair. Pixies are teeny-tiny fairies that look like fireflies. These are unplayable since they are too small to even communicate. However, they do exist and are commonplace in wooded areas.

They excel in archery and in battle. They are nimble and tend to possess light magic. This allows them to create light orbs, shields, and create light at will. Only the most accomplished light-users can utilize invisibility. There are even rumors of elves that can foresee the future. They tend to dress in clothes that are comfortable for battle and travel. They have civilizations but many feel happy to go off on their own or into battle. Those that stay in civilizations have a love for music, technology, and art. There are elves with many different skills including acting, inventing, and even engineering. There are no gender roles as there are in the fairies. Females are expected to learn to fight as much as males are. Elves are much more competitive and common in battle than fairies. They tend to reside in forest areas as well. They do not create villages in cold areas but will explore there if properly dressed, as they are a very adventurous species. They also speak English well. Dark elves are becoming more common. Elves with malevolent or darker personalities tend to have their negativity manifest in their energy and in their power. They are always outcasted due to how dangerous they are. Elves reach full adulthood at 100 years of age. [u][b]Their weaknesses are pretty much the same as human weaknesses besides the fact they live for many, many years.

Humans may recognize the animals their genetics are mixed with from Earth. They have heightened senses and qualities of the animal that they are mixed with two forms of demi-human full/half. Full demi-humans look like anthropomorphic animals. Half demi-humans have more human in them mostly ending up with animal ears, tails, and claws. For example, a centaur is a human with a horse lower body. A mermaid is also an example of a demi-human, with a human upper half and tail lower half. There are cases of humans with large, bird-like wings that some refer to as angels as well as humans with cat-ears, cat-like pupils and senses. Half-dragon humans exist as well. Besides mermaids that reside in water in warm climates, most live in large cities designated for demi-humans. Because of their range of different abilities they are excellent architects. They build huge cities usually in hilly-areas away from everyone since many species look down on demi-humans in disgust, seeing them as lesser beings. Half-human, half-animal creatures surprisingly are very civilized and human-like, speaking English and having a range of talented writers, artists and such, depending on the species. They have the best technology as well. Some enjoy being in the forest or away from civilization but many live rather mundane lives. Those with more offensive characteristics like claws and strength may join the battle. [u][b]Abilities will vary with any hybrid you are, gaining whatever senses that animal tends to have.

However, in reality, they're creatures that come in many shapes and sizes that stay near the inhabitable zone where they arrive from the Abyss. Some are more intelligent than others and even have created their own buildings and cities. Some may appear as monsters while others as horned-humanoid creatures with ranging abilities and powers. Well-known creatures such as Succubuses specialize in seduction. Due to this being a broad category, you may bring in a type of demon but it will have to be approved to make sure you are not overpowered. They are often hateful towards other species and mischievous. They are also not high in the population at all. Many demons respect a very powerful demon named Lilith as their mother.

Yet what makes them special in the world? The strength of them can be rivaled, the weapon skill they have is only as good as their body allows. In a world of magic and chaos, a strong body can be rivaled quickly with magic boosting and magic weapons. They have lives that can be long so mastering a weapon is no problem, yet to an elf, that is at most a quarter of their lives, so why are they a threat? They are a nuisance at best in the grand scale and probably should have been wiped from this world years ago by just the introduction of guns, flying ships, and war weapons. So what if they do have a magic all their own? A magical rite that can be done to give greater strength. This rite allows for Orcs to harness the powers that they first kill after the rite is complete. This includes all creatures, insects, animals, monsters, and even people. They gain the power of the thing they kill, but this is also a very hard thing for Orcs to do. To not kill that fly that is bothering you, to not kill an animal while you are hungry while on the hunt for more worthy prey. This is an extreme difficulty for most Orcs, to temper yourself to such a degree, to not lose sight of your goals. There are few Orcs who have reached such power, but they are terrifying. The most known powers gained is that from: [color=blue][b]Flies[/b][/color]- Slowed vision in combat. [color=blue][b]Beetles[/b][/color]- Increased Durability. [color=blue][b]Mosquitoes[/b][/color]- The ability to consume the blood of other races to heal. Requires immense amounts of blood to heal wounds, and recreating body parts requires months and extremely large quantities of blood. [color=blue][b]Boars[/b][/color]- Increased Strength and Durability. [color=blue][b]Bears[/b][/color]- Greatly Increased physical strength and durability as their skin becomes extremely tough and hard to hurt and cut. These powers move up in strength as creatures become tougher. As the Orcs are even able to gain the powers of magic from creatures, one thing is for certain though, it is always weaker, and if it is unrelated to combat and fighting, either they do not get it or it will become something very combative, like the control of plants might either become extremely aggressive plant growth that can kill someone with vines that are thronged with thorns filled with poison, or it'll just allow them to grow plants and launch them like large projectiles. In any case, this rite is always some form of combative nature, even if it is a non-combative thing you gained from a creature, it will be changed to a much more aggressive form of it. Like the ability to talk to animals might be changed to being able to control animals, which is where their beastmaster comes from. Their powers are unique as it can be many things, yet many Orcs are too simple and rash to ever reach some of the higher tiers of power because of their nature. Either they kill something for quick power, they don't think about what can be killed and gained, and some just killed insects that were annoying them and now have to live with being known as "Fly Squisher", a loving term used to mark anyone who has killed anything smaller than a boar. The Rite can be done at any point in an Orc's life, but it can only ever be done once, any more times it will kill the Orc. For an Orc to kill an Orc during their rite, either the power they possessed beforehand would then be passed on, more powerful than before. Or they gain the knowledge, memories, and experience of the Orc they kill. The Shaman are not the only ones to administer the rite, they also use it to pass down their knowledge. As many near older ages, they are known to find one like them and deem them the next Shaman. As when the rite is commenced, the Fledgling will kill the Shaman and gain all of his knowledge. This can sometimes warp, change, or alter their personality as they take in the knowledge, experience, and wisdom of a long line of Orcs before them.[/hider] [b][color=ed1c24]Following info created by [@FunnyGuy]:[/color][/b] [h3][color=blue][b][u]Orc Hierarchy[/u][/b][/color][/h3] [u][b]Grand Chieftain[/b] [/u]- Highest of the Orc ranks. [u][b]Chieftains [/b][/u]- This position is held by the head of an orc clan. There are four major orc clans in Avalia. These are not the wisest, not the oldest, but the most powerful orcs in the clan. Orcs become chiefs by killing or defeating the previous chief in combat This is position is contended from time to time, but not taken so easily. [u][b]Priest/Shaman [/b][/u]- This title usually goes to orcs that have outlived their peers and missed the opportunity for a glorious death. They use their wisdom to advise chieftains in strategy. These orcs ensure traditions maintain and may sometimes offer spiritual council. [u][b]Captain [/b][/u]- This rank was not created by orcs, but adopted from the dark elves to create structure organization to Orc Raiders. Captains have authority over raiders and often give their Raiders some form of identification, whether it be a tattoo, scar, or even by the use of a title. Raider - The majority of orcs. Most call them warriors, but a true orc will tell you all orcs are warriors. These orcs are often found moving in groups of up to a dozen. Either enough for a successful raid or as many that happen to be eager to assert their dominance. Orc society calls young orc raiders Grunts or Pups. [u][b]Raider[/b][/u] - These are the lowest of the orc ranks. [u][b]Outcast[/b][/u] - Very often there are orcs who leave their clan, either by banishment or by choice of their own. There are many reasons why an orc may become an outcast, just as there are many reasons why one may rarely see one. Usually alone, but can be found in the company of as many as five orc outcasts.

They are often skilled warriors, miners, and workers of stone and metal. Broad and hardy creatures, while they stand under 5 feet tall, they tend to weigh the same as an elf, if not more. They have a wide variety of skin colors, ranging from deep brown to very pale. They often wear their hair long in simple styles and both men and women have the ability to grow magnificent beards. Hair color ranges from black, grey, brown, and reds. They can easily live over 400 years old, though they average out to only living 350 years due to the harsher conditions they live under. While they are long-lived, they seem to have an even longer memory. They tend to be able to remember their past in clear detail, this brings forth other challenges. Remembering small details of the past makes it a lot easier for them to hold onto grudges. A proud race, they tend to dislike any that are taller than them as they often feel like they are looking down on them. Dwarves hold on tightly to their traditions and don’t break away from them easily. These traditions include upholding dwarven ideals of industrious labor, skill in battle, and devotion to forging fine weapons and inventions, A very crafty people, they are often more advanced in technologies than the other races. They value the beauty and artistry of precious metals and fine jewelry and are well known throughout Avalia for their fine craftsmanship. One of their well-known inventions is the Amora, a flying machine that many people use to get around Avalia. Another invention of theirs is the blunderbuss and the flintlock pistol, however, acquiring one of these weapons from them may take a lot of convincing. Anything has a price, though, and Dwarves love their money. [color=lightblue][b]Lifespan:[/b][/color] Up to 450 years [/hider][/center]
