Races

There are many races of people in Raeall and many factions and sub-factions throughout the races.

Dwarves

The Dwarven people were once the greatest power in Raeall. Legendary craftsmen and fierce warriors these stout people protected the land and provided resources to the other nations around their great mountain city of Mithril. After the mountain was decimated in the Sundering they have become a nomadic people except for the few who now call the Bluffs of Hammerhill in Southern Raeall home.

Elves

The Elves are some of the most powerful Mages in all of Raeall since the Sundering they have separated into two separate and distinct factions. The Desert Elves from the Burning Sands in the Northwest of the Continent and the Forest Elves of Brightwood in the hills and woods East of the riverlands.

Humans

Descending from the same great family the Humans of Raeall now live in four kingdoms each with their own King and alliances that come with it. The original kingdom of Eveleth in the North to the East of the Burning Sands, the port city of Sunder to the West, Thousand Rivers in the center, and the peninsula and archipelago of Twelve Isles to the far Southeast.

Merfolk

The Merfolk live in the sunken city of Gallant off the Southwestern coast of Raeall. Once a human capital city overlooking the ocean it was plunged into the sea by a great dark mage during the Sundering. All of the people who did not die were cursed by the mage to a life in their sunken city as they could now breath in the water allowing them only a few hours a day on land.

Ancients

The Ancients are a magical race of people who are thought to have perished Eleven Thousand years ago in a great cataclysm. Many of the current peoples cities are built on the foundations laid in place by the ancients and the dominant religion the Way of the Magi is a hold over from this earlier people. They seemed to have a great respect and friendship with the other races as much of their artwork depicts Dwarves, Elves, and Humans working in unity and engaging in trade. The mutual spoken and written language of Raeall is also thought to have been their creation and is commonplace with all races.
