From the elves that traverse the landscape without end, to the pterrans searching for a way to save the Earth Mother, Athas has many races, all honed by the circumstances and honed for survival. Thousands of years of brutal warfare and the dying of the land at the hands of the Dragon and arcane magic has left an indelible mark on all that dwell under the olive skies. Many races that are common on other worlds, such as gnomes, orcs, kobolds and ogres, are absent, driven to extinction thanks to the champions of Rajaat, and those that survived the slaughter were much changed. Elves stalk the wastelands, striving to emulate the first of their kind, the Star Racer, while the dwarves pound stone and work the land, with their focus before almost everything else. Dray wait for the Day of Light, when they will inherit the burnt world, while the pterrans and the aarakocra emerge from isolation and seek a way to restore the world to what it once was. Rhul – Thaun are all too willing to stay in isolation, keeping secrets from when they were the sole rulers of a land once covered in what Athas now thirsts for, while their halfling brethren dwell in the Forest Ridge, having gained a taste for the flesh of the races born of the Pristine Tower.Half elves dwell in the wastes and in the cities, while the half – giants camp outside their walls, too large for a world that they were created to defend as well as destroy. Muls work without relent under the sun or fight for their masters and glory in the arenas across the city states. And thri – kreen hunt across the tablelands with steadfast devotion to the clutch, while kreen far beyond the tablelands dwell in strange cities.Player Races - AarakocraDrayDwarfElfGoliathGenasiHalf-ElfHalflingHalf - GiantHumanMulPterranRhul - Thaun (Jagged Cliff Halfling)Ssurran Thri - Kreen</blockquote>
