Races

The disctinction of race is a major factor when building a character in the world of Terra. A majority of the races below are human or human-based races. However, each race is unique and has their own cultural, spiritual, idealogical and physical differences that effect roleplay and gameplay appropriately.

Each race is loosely based on a civilization from Earth's history, but with a small change to fit the world of Terra. This link merely exists as a guideline along which to guide your imagination, and is in no way to limit you. One should also not feel limited by anatomical factors. From the Website: " Thus, although the Xheng culture is based on those of ancient Japan and China, members of the Xheng race do not need to look Japanese or Chinese."

Some players choose a mixed racial heritage which is perfectly acceptable. However, for mechanics purposes, one of these races must be chosen as the "dominant" race for purposes of racial benefits and requirements. Combining benefits or restrictions is not permitted.
