Races
Humanity
The most populous race, humans can be found in (almost) all environments. In the region of the Five Nations, the humans are dark-skinned, but in the satrapies, all tones can be found. Known to be the most magically-apt race
Golems
Also known as "Mountain-Folk", the golems can be found in insular underground colonies wherever there is stone. They have no need for light or air, and digging into their homes is a common source of contention between them and miners. Fortunately, the Golems bear no specific hatred of humanity, and often such encounters end peacefully.
Sprites
Elemental creatures, small in stature but not in power. They are very playful, but distrustful by nature.
Suro'ia
Also known as the beastmen, the Suro'ia have a form that is reminiscent of werewolves, but more bearlike. They generally live in small socialist agrarian settlements, but rather than eating cereal grain, they feed it to their livestock and themselves eat mostly fruit and meat. They, along with their livestock, hibernate from (In most locations) mid-Korilao until Listao. The Suro'ia have their own native language and culture, as well as different names for the Aspects, but the differences are trivial. They have no formal religion, however, and instead they worship privately and only in thanks. It is considered bad form to ask the divine of anything unless you are likely to die without their aid. Entitlement is considered the greatest sin in their society, which is completely egalitarian. Contrary to stereotypes, the Suro'ia keep very good libraries and are generally well educated.
