Our Human creation story is that they were once all the kin of a Dragon king and his Queen who was a Earth Sprite. They both appeared "Human" in most of their dealings with their children and their children could turn into either dragon or have elemental features. Over time, this knowledge was lost but their heritage can still be found in "throwbacks" like the dragon-born and the gensai. Our Elves are split into three distinct races. The High Elves live in a draconian utopia and are constantly warring with those who come close to their domain. Mountain Elves have a distinct Apache feel. Their lands where first claimed by Dwarves and then by Orcs and now by Humans all of whom refuse to accept that the Elves were there first. They are highly hostile and masters of guerrilla  tactics. Drow are followers of the Dragon gods, the holy trinity, as they call them. Their legend says that for continued service they were bathed in holy fire and this is why they have burnt or black skin. Their society mirrors that of the Polynesian peoples with lots of fire rituals and tattooing.  Gnomes are a techno-savy race that are the children of Dwarves and Elves. Long ago it was common for Mountain Elves and Dwarves to marry, a kind of way to keep the peace amoungst them. These children are now known as Al-Guifur (the tinker) and are the source of the long standing Dwarf/Elf feud. They are the eternal single child and love to play their parents against each other.Orcs and Goblins are pastoral nomads. They survive by raiding civilized cities and towns for food, horses and other animals. It's also a common practice for Orcs and Goblins to defeat and then take other nomadic peoples as spouses creating a slew of half breeds with some tribes membership being half-breed exclusive.Bugbears have their own nation. They were once wandering nomads like the Orcs and Goblins until their great leader came to power. Forming a totalitarian ruling class, he forced all those not in his plan into an agricultural lifestyle where they farm, sleep, farm, sleep and then die to support the chosen ruling class.Dwarves used to be giant moles whom Moradin crafted in his own image because they collected the jewels that he crafted his lover, the lady night stars, out of.</blockquote>
