[QUOTE="Theocrat, post: 3532477, member: 16778"] hi all - I'm unsure if any of you are familiar with Greyhawk and it's human racial divides. If so I'd love to know what you are racialy. Humanoids are called: Halflings are called Hobniz, Gnomes are Noniz, and Half-Orcs are called Woelings typically, as orcs are called Euroz, so they're Sil-Euroz (sometimes) or just half-Euroz. Elves are Olves. Hobgoblins are Sil-Krag's (from Kalamar). Now there is so much debate as to what Earth-to-Oerth relation the humanoid races have, but as a quick concept they are: Back to the humans, I'd say the bard was Flan (because they are one with the Oerth, and pop's is a Noniz [think native american's with a bit of celtic]). Leigh is my sister, by adopted parents that is (unless we're really bro-sis, which might be cool since I went in another direction with my worship of the sun). Pelor is Oerdian, as is Pholtus. But Pelor is very widely accepted throughout the Flanaess. Oerdians are your atypical caucasian europeans, whereas Baklunish people are similar with a Spainard flair. Again, there is so much debate on this throughout the GH community. I only ask if those you who know or there is the now cosopolitian race of Human, which is what many people are even in our RL modern times. I'm unsure what any of our relationships are other than friends and "cousins" as the Noniz refered to us. Not a big Dragonlance fan, but it could have that tinge if Leigh and I were real brother-sister. Be Well. [/QUOTE]
