There are a few different races that are allowed on this site. The first two are races that you will need permission to play. Simply PM an Admin to get permission to play the person you wish the create.[/color]horsemen
The Horsemen started out as specs of consciousness and being in a new world with new creatures. Not part of the creation of the world in any way, only observers, each grew on the cruelties of the world. And, eventually, were able to take physical shape. Each took a symbol of office, riding out on horses to try to learn the balance between order and chaos. And they mostly succeeded. The world around them changed them. In the new world, one run by men who showed their wealth by taking as many slaves as possible, the Horsemen took up the title as a ruling council, trying to keep order the best they could. When they failed, they went with the ruling class and have grown used to the life. Now they will defend it.
Horsemen is only a title, as they are split in half, two women and two men. They only have power over their cruelty, but with that power comes a horse and immortality. Well, immortality until one is killed by one of their brethren, and in that case Death finds a new Rider. Their powers are limited by each other and the balance they must keep, else something really bad begins to happen to the world.
blessed
[/color]A man sold his soul to the gods of old and took on the power this decision entitled. It nearly killed him, though he opened the portal that others needed to become stronger and more able to defend themselves. Those without many means of defense he took pity upon, and shared the secret of his power. He thinks of himself as someone who helps the less fortunate... for a price. This resulted in the creation of the race he rules; the blessed.
This race is something different altogether. These are normal humans that have been blessed by the hidden powers of the world, known mostly as gods. This race is extremely rare and is frequently just considered to be one that consists of 'mortal saviors'. In reality they are just immortal humans that have abilities. This race is not limited to only one ability; they can have many, mental or physical. After they survive their ability for a few years, they become more and more in control of it. Slowly growing in body and mind so much that they become immortal and are considered the children of the gods of old. This race is also the hidden force that causes the rebellion.
The following races are able to be played without many restrictions.
elf
[/color]Elves are our familiar, pointed eared friends. They are said to be 'one with nature', but they can be a savage race. Some elves are considered as 'nobles' in the society of the fat cats, though most reside in their own separate village known as Valspara. The elves tend to keep their secrets to themselves and they are creatures who treat all with respect. These people do not tolerate bullying and have strong lines of defense. Some of the less fortunate beings of this race are taken back to Dela as prisoners of war, where they are used as a slave. Elves usually live to be around 500 years old.
drow
Drow are a species of elf that have dark skin. They are ruthless and cunning; a race that is not to be messed with. They work in league with the horsemen and are the ones who managed to conquer those who are now enslaved. They are characterized by their dark skin and white hair; pointed ears show their elven heritage. These are the primary masters of slaves, along with a few of the members of other races that have clawed their way to the top.
dragon
[/color]There are two variants of dragons. The more common, and the not so common. The common dragons are the ones that have a perfectly humanoid appearance, despite some odd markings here and there. They pass for a human or an elf easily. What makes them a dragon is an alternate form they may change into and their life expectancy. They can turn into a smaller version of a dragon, around the size of a hawk. When in this form they can breath fire to an extent but cannot do much otherwise than fly. These creatures are able to live for a long time, until they are slain by someone else.
The second variant of dragons are a type that is very rare and not commonly seen by people. The ones that are found are usually captured and enslaved by others, being seen as a rare pet; an easy target, considering how they aren't very populous and are easily conquered by the masses. These dragons have an odd appearance. They look similar to this. They come in many different colors and also have a relatively unlimited lifespan.
human
[/color]Humans are mortal and have been conquered. Those that are not wealthy are slaves, unless they are running from the people who know who and what they are. Humans rarely live to be 100 years old and are often considered as one of the weakest races. A human rarely has a natural ability, and they are all normal, for the most part. Distinguishing features are probably their rounded ears and how they are shorter in stature than most other races.
