[QUOTE="Crimson Longinus, post: 8391671, member: 7025508"] In my current setting the orcs and humans are most populous. Humans are rather adaptable and can thrive in many environments. And unlike many other species, some humans practice agriculture which allows high population cities to exist. (This is a stone age/early bronze age setting, so many people are some sort of nomads or hunter-gatherers.) Orcs on the other hand are hardy survivors, and can live in areas that would be too harsh and inhospitable to may other species, which gives them an niche humans cannot compete with. The third major species are the eldri, my small elf-like species. They however are far less numerous than the other two, although they can be found in many environments. They live in small clans. There are also many other intelligent species, such as gnolls, kobols, morogs, lizardfolk, kreen and others. But they're more peripheral. Granted, this may merely be due an anthropogenic bias: the campaign just takes place in the part of the setting where humans are common, and perhaps in some distant regions of the world this might not be the case.
