We all know what Humans are like. They are the most diverse in appearance with respect to height, width, skin colour, and bulk. A player can choose to play a human from a wide variety of Human archetype. Pale, sallow, brown, and black subtypes exist in various places on Gaianar.
In the Known World, humans generally fall into one of the four following archetypes; based on which continent they were born on.
North Point: Characters born here tend to be very pale skinned, have dark black hair and gray or blue eyes. They are stocky and a height of 5’6” is common for the average male. Females are slightly smaller in both height and build.
South Point: A person of South Point descent tends to be very tall and wiry. They have skin that ranges from the colour of milk chocolate to the colour of India ink. They have eyes either brown, dark hazel, or honey-amber. A Male, on average, stands around six feet tall. Females can exceed the height of a man and also tend to be more muscular. Many South Point societies are matriarchal. South Point descendants generally display a delicate beauty because of their tallness and slight build. This feature gives them a +1 to Comeliness when rolling attributes.
West Point: Natives to West Point are somewhat shorter than their South Point cousins. Humans from this area stand about 6'3" on average and have red, auburn, or brown hair. Their skin tends to freckle a lot in summer. While thicker in build than their Southern cousins, they still appear willowy at first glance. They usually have green or sea blue eyes.
East Point: People from this continent are the smallest of all humans. Standing only about 5'3" on average, these people are sallow in skin tone and have almond shaped eyes. Many Eastern descendants have brown or hazel eye colour, but dark black and pale green are anomalies that occasionally surface. The Humans from this area are medium in build and give a very sturdy first impression.
It should be known that because Humans lack many of the special innate abilities of the other races, a Human player character gains a 5% bonus to experience.
Human player characters can be of any alignment. The average human life span is 105 years. Humans have a standard empathic resistance of 10%.
