[QUOTE="Fifinjir, post: 9006174, member: 7031683"] For Exult: Tales of the Final Age Elves are the guardians of Whisper, the primeval forest. Despite what image that might give, they actually aren’t shoot first and ask questions later; visitors are accepted as long as they don’t go too deep, and can even live permanently in the settlements along the outer edges. However, if a human mother carries a child through her whole pregnancy in Whisper, that child will be born an elf, and other people born in that manner will be decidedly “elfy”. It should also be known that this guardianship is for the outside world’s good as much as for Whisper, many great evils are sealed in its deepest reaches. Elves sometimes travel away from Whisper for a time. This is seen as a valuable learning experience that allows the elf to bring their new skills back to the forest. “Half-elves” result when an elf sires an offspring outside, even with another elf. Orcs are the vat-grown alchemical soldiers of Vanallesse. They originated as a means for the goliaths to recreate the true giants of Civilization 0, but while the experiment failed the orcs proved effective foot soldiers. They were under the goliaths’ complete control in the Yulathian Age, and ultimately allowed Vanallesse the upper hand in its war against Rahimo. In the Final Age, however, Vanallessian society is breaking down, and groups of both goliaths and orcs are striking out on their own. [/QUOTE]
