Elf
“Mainly found on the wooded continent of Dir’Ok, the elven species can be found on any of the five continents.

Frog
“Despite their angered looks, almost all species of Frog are friendly in nature, with only a few exceptions.

Gladiator
“Gladiators are not made at birth, but instead built from the hardship and battle prowess developed over many battles at the Senecan Coliseum. Those who enter the infamous arena are promised fame and glory but are often left limbless and disappointed. The actual term “Gladiator” is a rank only given to those who climb to the top of the Coliseum battle rankings and is often used synonymously with bravery and strength. All different species around the world attempt to climb the ranks to become a gladiator, but very few make it there and even fewer attempt the Trial of Crixus."
Main Regions:
Itrea
Griffin
“Griffins’ exceptional flying skills and secluded nature has made it extremely difficult to study the mysterious species in depth.

Despite their physical limitations, their high population and above average intellect has enabled them to become the one of the dominant species across Lyra, Itrea and Valdor.

Merchant
“The told tales of the traveling merchant have made the profession highly reputable and sought after.

The title is only given to a select few who are in good standing of each of the world’s governments, and are granted the right of guaranteed safe passage between continents."

Nomad
“Nomad is a homograph, with one being one who moves from place to place and the other, fittingly, being a species who does the same. Mostly contained within the canyons of the Valdor, the Nomad species makes their way across the whole continent every year. Their tough skin and pioneering nature has enabled them to traverse the Valdorian Terrain and, in some cases, explore the world."

Witch
“Witches harness unknown powers. Their practice of forbidden blood magic forced Lyra, Itrea, Valdor and Dir’Ok to each exile them and disallow their presence.
