Planet:Koldenwelt/Old/Races

Koldenwelt has many sapient races, which come from multiple species and subspecies.

Main species
Most of the beings on Koldenwelt are members of the hominid  races. They are divided into four types: Elves, Giants, Men and Dwarves.

Also common are the draconic  races.

Theriocephali
Theriocephali, or "Beasts", are (usually) humanoids with animal features. The origins of Theriocephali are often mysterious and likely to be varied: for example, the Beastmen are known to come from mixing Elves with non-sapient animals, while almost nobody believes this to be the case with Smeevers.

Monsters
"Monsters" are hairless humanoids, usually less than three metres tall; some are less than half that height. The name is, of course, pejorative (and not a strict taxonomic description), since Monster races are generally perceived as being ugly by other humanoid races.

Monster races include:
 * Gorublan
 * Gralleth
 * Vampire
 * Vampire

Golems
Golems are creatures made of minerals including rocks, crystals or even metals. Unlike other races, they do not obey an humanoid rule. Golems are commonly used artificial servants of other races, given life through magic.

Golem races include:


 * Gargoyle
 * Lympharian
 * Vulcanus Men

Fae
Fae, also known as "Fairies", are creatures with incredible magic potential, often small in size and humanoid, known to be mischievous and closely related to nature. They are also known to be the source of fairy dust.
