History
Based on Humans

Humans are the most numerous of the civilized humanoid races of Ardûs and as such can be found in nearly every corner of the world. They are versatile and highly adaptive to any environment and situation, allowing for humans to have easily spread their number and nations around the world.

Description

Humans share many common traits, with the only great exception being their half-elven offspring. Humans come in many shapes, sizes, and of varying strength and intelligence. They're highly adaptable and versatile. Humans are generally capable of excelling at anything.

Personality

Humans trend towards all alignments. Some uphold ideals of the gods of law, others prefer freedom without restraint, and even those who seek power even should it bring harm to another. Short-lived in comparison to the other races, humans take life at a quicker pace than some of their neighboring races. Spreading their nations and influence with incredible speed. Humanity tends to build wide before they do tall, although exceptions to the rule exist, as with all humans no two among them are exactly alike.

Humans are driven, have goals, and ultimately seek to spread their influence across the world. They can be ambitious and noble, deeply compassionate, or destructive and evil.

History

The origins of humans is attributed to Solvain and the lunar twins Ecliptia and Lunarael, and has been so for as long as anyone can remember.

The eldest of the elves in the clans hardest to reach, along with a few ancient scholars claim that humans first came to Ardûs as the children of Tiamat. Hints of this fact can be found in long-forgotten tombs, well hidden wall-carvings in paths untraveled, and a few rare artifacts in circulation today. The vast majority of humans would consider this to be heretical at worst and childish imagination at best. That being said, both the elven sages and silent scholars largely agree, unknowingly to the other, that this information is best kept suppressed and hidden from humanity at-large, and with time, hopefully forgotten.
