Synth (24 RP)

Synths are entirely synthetic humanoids; mechanical beings that are assembled in factories. Coming in two forms; one prioritizing Strength and the other Dexterity, these models are independent from gender, which is a little-used concept within Synth society. 

Many would assume religion to be considered a foreign concept to mechanical beings, however this is untrue for Synths; They revere The Machine Spirit, a being they believe inhabits and guides all machines, not just the sentient ones such as themselves. It is said that Synth’s considered most gods unworthy of their worship, so they built their own. Others claim that at the very core of Derexia they found their god. Others still claim that The Machine Spirit is the first Synth, a progenitor of sorts. The answer to this question exists within the Grand Archive of Cortex, though access is highly restricted, only allowed to machine priests and high ranking scholars. 

As far as personality is considered, the most generous individuals would consider Synths “Quirky” at best, other less sympathetic few would consider them pale imitations of actual humanity, frighteningly hollow. Perception mostly depends upon how good the particular Synth is at replicating emotion and believable behavior, something that does not come naturally to them. Most believe they’re not actually capable of emotion, and are only able to attempt pale mimicry, although those are not aware of the complexity that lurks beneath the mechanical visage most see.

As far as class selection is concerned, most Synths lean towards a specialization based upon their model, Heavy models leaning towards Fighters and Barbarians, Light models leaning towards Monks and Rogues. Particularly zealous Synths (which constitute a decent proportion of the populace) become Clerics, however Arcane and Occult magics are considered taboo in Synth society, a sign of mistrust in The Machine God and the cold certainty of the steel that makes up their very being. That is not to say that Synth Wizards do not exist, but that they will typically exist in secret.

Lumara (24 RP)

Lumari both embrace and rebuke the title of ‘Warrior Race’. It is a title they hold alongside their eternal rivals, Akhon, and it is one that they fit rather well. Lumari society is divided into a network of clans which inhabit Khrilis, and they are typically rather insulated from one another, barring two exceptions; War, whether it be against an outside force or a so-called “Fallen Clan”, and Celebration, in which times the idea of clan separation is thrown away altogether.

The greatest division of the clans is the method by which they practice the blade. Every Lumara is raised to wield a sword without exception, though not every Lumara is destined to become a soldier. The techniques by which a Lumara wields their blade (or blades) shapes them a great deal. The Lumari are blessed with the unique ability to channel the essence of reality itself through steel, and depending on their stance the result of such effort takes different forms, each roughly corresponding to a discipline of the Magic School of Reality. 

Within Lumari society there are many clans of each discipline, however there are only ever six Grandmasters, those said to be the most skilled alive in their discipline and leaders of all clans who follow their form. Each of these Grandmasters possesses a Fragment, said to be a blade crafted from the shattered remains of their patron god’s blade, destroyed in a duel with the patron god of the Akhon people. Each of these Fragments is said to be unnaturally responsive to a discipline by which the Lumari people live by, and only the Grandmasters are worthy of such power. 

Besides their affinity for swordplay, most Lumari are generally jovial folk, albeit not often the brightest of their group. Most prioritize bravado and honor over planning and tactics. To underestimate a Lumara as a simple-minded loud-mouthed fighter is most often a fatal error, as a lifetime of training leaves even the most clumsy and sedentary Lumara able to wield a blade with devastating prowess.

Unarmed strikes with its elbows or hands (or attacks with weapons held in those hands) deal +1d6 points of damage of the appropriate energy type. This lasts for 1 round per character level. The creature may end the effects of its elemental assault early as a free action.

Monstrous Defense Racial Traits

  • Fast Healing: Lumari regain 1 hit point each round. Except for where noted here, fast healing is just like natural healing.

Monstrous Offense Racial Traits

  • Elemental Weapons: With the same energy type you picked for Energy Resistance, Lumari deal 1d6 points of energy damage of the selected type whenever they strike a foe with a natural attack, unarmed strike, or melee weapon.

Allurin (24 RP)

“There is no such thing as an ugly Allurin” is a phrase commonly tossed around bars and brothels, though the more cynical typically append “at least on the outside”. 

Alluri are many things, though one thing you could not call them is serious. The average Allurin is bubbly, easily-excitable, lighthearted and stunningly attractive. Their anatomy differs greatly from the average humanoid race, however it may not appear so to the untrained eye or hand. Where the average person would see a highly sculpted physique seemingly cut from marble coinciding with curvature that guarantees them entry to any bar, are actually interspersed deposits of fat. The muscular build of the Allurin is something of a trick, as none of those muscles are actually that, rendering them merely for show. This biology guarantees that any Allurin, however gluttonous or slovenly, possesses a body that seemingly brushes against the edges of absolute perfection.

The Alluri do not let this gift go to waste, and many take their chance to dominate the entertainment market within every realm they can reach. This natural advantage along with a healthy dose of nepotism has led to the perception that practically all of art is monopolized by the Alluri. Nepotism is rather difficult for the Alluri to execute, though, due to the unique way in which they reproduce. 

Alluri are genetically incompatible with one another, unable to reproduce and create a so-called “pureblooded Allurin”. This leaves crossbreeding as the only recourse for Alluri, though that raises somewhat of a problem; What makes an Allurin if they’re all crossbreeds? Luckily there is a way to tell; Other than their specific physique, Allurin skin typically sports a lightly pink hue and hair and eye colors of nearly any sort, as long as they compliment each other, as well as something the Allurin refer to as ‘Ink’.

Ink is called such as it resembles a tattoo, although it is a birthmark. Ink is a black pattern unique to every Allurin, although related Alluri may have similar marks. The pattern manifests when the Allurin reaches adulthood, just below the belly button for women and between the shoulder blades for men. The Ink varies in size, though some Alluri believe its size coincides with how much their patron goddess favors their bloodline, something that has caused quite a stir within Whymsa society over the very many years, as a quirk in Alluri biology allows them to live many times longer than their mixed heritage would suggest, at least until they’ve had children of their own, at which point they begin aging normally as they did before adulthood.

Ridian (24 RP)

 

Elysium is characterized by a single word, Primal. From the environment that scatters its surface to the beings that call that place their home, there is an unrefined edge that is common throughout, traits that all beings on its face share; Exotic and dangerous. None more fit this description than the Elysian natives, the Ridians. 

Ridans are typically reclusive people, at least the smart ones are. Bordering the line of flora and fauna they have been considered prize collectors pieces by the more megalomaniacal of society, though what makes them truly valuable is their process of so-called “Generational Evolution”.

While Ridians reproduce in the typical fashion, what is passed down to their progeny is far more than simple genetic code. The memories, experiences, and skills are passed down to their children, though without specific training and focus it is difficult for the average Ridian to access these assets.

Beyond this ability, the Ridians possess rather simple bodies, though to any other race they seem anything but. Ridans are as varied as plant life on Elysium itself. They have humanoid bodies and physiology, though in terms of specific biology, the appearance of Ridians is mimicry of standard humanoid appearance. Specific features that are truly pointless to plants, such as breasts, hair, most orifices, and rather limited limb structure, are replicated for reasons that are completely unknown to Ridians and others alike. This replication extends so far that some Ridians have been known to even grow clothing.

Besides their odd appearance though, personality is typically what sets Ridians apart from other races. With their long lifespans and strange upbringing in Elysium, their perspective in the world is truly alien, and for this reason they find difficulty connecting with other races besides, strangely enough, Synths, as they share a similar disposition.

The final quirk of Ridian society is that of a lost art of magic, Druidism. Druidism was only taught to a select few ancient Ridians by their patron god, and the secret of that magic disappeared with them, and their whereabouts are unknown by even the oldest Ridians still in Elysium.

Almouran (24 RP)

 

The Almourans are a fractured people. All at once they have the capability to be the most immensely powerful faction within Utopia Prime, but expend much of their effort in-fighting to the point of utter exhaustion. Their division begins at their appearance. An Almouran is always the inverse of their mother, and appears in one of two varieties without deviation. 

The first of the typical Almouran forms is that of an angelic figure of pure refined regality. Perfectly unblemished skin complementing hair of immaculate volume all coming together to form an appearance that is utterly otherworldly, the particularly powerful taking this otherworldly nature a step further and growing feathered wings to complete their perfect forms. The second form is that of a raw, unrefined sort of beauty. Skin of shades varying from a burnished red, to a deep blue, the most vibrant of purples, to blacker than any night. Their appearance is demonic, complete with horns and tails that make all but the most innocent-looking Almourans seem sinister. One would expect a rather rigid division of their society to branch from this difference in appearance, but due to the inevitability of it, as well as every empress alternating their own palette down the line of succession, this is the least of the divisions the Almourans face.

The greatest rift within society in Xion is that of magical preference. Divine and Arcane. Prayer and Study. Scriptures and Spellcraft. These two schools of thought have been warring within the heart of the Almouran Empire since its inception, and will doubtless continue for generations. The Empire has built two robust hierarchies, one for each of these schools of thought, with the Empress herself superseding both the Archmage and Archbishop respectively. 

The path an Almourans life takes depends largely upon what side they take within this eternal struggle. To side with the divine is to become an apostle of Nikita herself. For most, it means joining the congregation as a cleric and perhaps joining a crusade or two within your lifetime and enjoying the most blessed inevitability of dying for a righteous cause. This is where the less devoted (and all men) will end their journeys, but for the women who choose to devote themselves fully to Nikita’s grace, they will be rewarded with the honor of grand bureaucracy, though some will be lucky enough to join the Empresses elite military force, Adepta Sororitus.

The path of the Arcane involves rigorous years of study within the Almouran Institute of Arcane Ascendence. Through a minimum of sixteen years of study, an Almouran will be able to gain the prestigious title of Spiral Mage, perfecting a type of magic that works independently from the traditional bounds of arcane study, complementing it with power unmatched by any other.

Akohn (24 RP)

 

There is a fine line between the treatment of War as an artform, and War as sport. The Akohn do not lie anywhere near this line, as they firmly believe war is sport, and vice versa. 

Living the entirety of one’s life in constant training is sure to cultivate a certain attitude towards life, and luckily for most Akohn this attitude is one of joyful ambition and extremely simplistic outlooks on self-improvement. To live is to train for an Akohn. Within Akohnic society it is the gravest of shames to die before seeing the greatest heights one can reach. Even to surpass one’s prime age without reaching what they consider to be an ultimate physique is considered a disappointment of the highest measure.

Combat is at the very center of Akohnic society, to the point where their hierarchy, which is seemingly a monarchy from the outside, is decided entirely by the strongest. The king is decided by a trial of combat, and all other offices are filled by appointment by the new king. It so happens that the position of king is the one that is most often changed, as the Akohn with talent in finances or urban planning typically remain in their positions as the combat-obsessed paragon who just usurped the previous king has little time or patience to search for a suitable replacement for them.

Regardless of the king in charge at the time, every few years the exact same event takes place; The Pride War. The Lumari and Akohnic have, for many centuries now, traded blows on the grand stage of war. Interestingly enough, the tradition began from a good-natured spar between the patron gods of either race that quickly became an all-out battle. The patron gods have not joined in the action after the first Pride War, but ever since these wars have been waged consistently every few years. Within them there are two simple rules; don’t kill, and win. These events, despite being extreme and vicious battles, are sport for the combatants first and foremost, and the celebration following a Pride War is truly a sight to behold.

Starkin (24 RP)

 

Throughout the entirety of recorded history, there are only a small handful of documented encounters with the Starkin. Records of these encounters have been carefully analyzed and preserved for all time, and extensive analysis has yielded four fundamental truths of the Starkin. It should be known that many points in this entry are merely conjecture, as it is far more difficult to document a race of people that do not wish to be known by the general populace than one that cannot wait to be known, like the Alluri. The challenge of piercing together facts about creatures that were, until recently, thought to be myth is a great one to say the least, however, the following are considered to be the fundamental truths of the Starkin people;

First. All Starkin possess intellect on an entirely transcendent level compared to the typical mortal. It would take the most dedicated and gifted Almouran Spiral Mage to match the genius that a Starkin can muster. This truth naturally leads many to the conclusion that the Starkin are naturally gifted mages, and it may be for the best that they remain in the shadows.

Second. Starkin are largely comprised of a singular collective, one ruled by a royal family. Within the records it is stated that the royal family are as to Starkin peasantry as Starkin are to humans in terms of intelligence, a truly terrifying prospect. The records could also be interpreted as hinting at the existence of artifacts possessed by the royal family, and that it is the existence of those artifacts that propel their intellect to such otherworldly levels.

Third. Starkin are on an endless quest to document all of existence. It is unknown what the documentation is for, but many also point to what is largely considered to be their patron god. The God of Reality perhaps wishes for existence to be known, this is the most optimistic of interpretations. It is not currently known what they will do once this quest is completed.

Fourth. The Starkin all possess the innate ability to twist and warp their physical forms in order to take the shape of any being they can conjure into their imaginations. This truth means there is a very real possibility that Starkin can be found among the general populace of any realm, and due to this change being entirely biological in nature, there is no way to know if any living being is a Starkin in disguise. An undisguised Starkin is a pale, gaunt humanoid figure with pallid skin and a face adorned with three eyes and a tentacled maw. With the means currently available to us, it is impossible to discern a Starkin. Perhaps that is by design.

Felguardian (24 RP)

In a way unlike every other race imaginable, Felguardians are impossible to define. This is not to say that other races are monolithic, or that Felguardians are somehow inherently “more special” than any other phylum of humanoid that exists, but is a far greater testament to the environment in which they cultivated themselves.

Terra is a world lost. One that has been torn asunder by its inhabitants and every piece of it used, consumed, and permuted to the absolute extent possible. Likewise Felguardian culture has undergone a similar treatment. To spend all of one’s time locked away with the only connection to others being one of many technicolor dream worlds that constitute virtual or alternate reality games and media that tear the user away from their world and place them within one where they are allowed to abstract themselves into whatever form they desire, dissolving themselves as a physical being and making the construction of their thoughts into their reality.

To utterly dissolve traditional values, to completely dismantle any form of a structured self, it leaves any Felguardian you meet to be capable of truly anything. There is no “Average” Felguardian, in fact the term Felguardian only refers to a specific encoded pattern upon the genome of certain individuals, which allows them to be particularly compatible with cybernetic interfaces, this pattern derived from years of genetic evolution being intermingled with the artificial evolution of mechanical augmentations.

The complete destruction of a sense of community or self allows Felguardians to be entirely unique, many deciding in their formative years a skill, trade, or interest to define themselves with and then abstracting a personality or framework of values from there, lest they find themselves in a world of Noise.

Every Felguardian is a study on the effects of deconstruction on the human psyche. The effect of complete disintegration of frameworks has on a developing mind.

And it is because of this that a Felguardian finding true happiness in this world is a truly profound event. One that speaks far more of other races than their own.

Maedel (24 RP)

 

Maedel believe in many things. They believe in the goddess Delmae, and her infinite passion from which they draw their lives. They believe in themselves and the strength they have, both physical, and emotional. They believe in each other, the strength of community and their collective strength. Most of all though, they believe that they exist for a reason.

The quest for purpose for a Maedel is different from that of other races. It is not simply the search for a place of belonging in this world, or for a point of view from which they are able to see themselves living a happy life. They look for their spot in the grand tapestry of the universe, their place in the infinite and beautiful weave of existence, a place from which they are able to contribute their color to the painting, their thread to the weave, their words to the page. A Maedel prizes legacy above all else.

Their endless search for purpose is reflected well within their society. Upon their home realm of The Azaereum, a massive and highly volcanic realm whose atmosphere would force any but the Maedel to succumb to heat stroke within minutes. They make their homes near the abundant superheated pools of mineral water that accompany the base of volcanoes, spending their time honing whatever craft they wish and receiving the utmost support from their tribe, which many Maedel consider to be as close as family.

It is the destiny of most Maedel to leave The Azaereum, unless they find their purpose to be guiding the young upon their path. Leaving The Azaereum is a difficult choice many have to make, but they most often view their home realm as a nest from which they must take flight from eventually. Sometimes this is viewed as more literal by the particularly dedicated Maedel, those with pure dragon blood within their veins. All Maedel possess scales adorning their figure and a draconic tail, typically complemented with darker skin tones, but purebloods have innate connection to draconic magic, something thought to be restricted to the mythical sorcerers of which Utopia Prime sees so little. For these Maedel their purpose is simple; Become a Dragon.

They often refuse to elaborate on how literal this purpose may be.
