Races of LBD.
Vymerrians: Vymerrians are humans with long elf like ears, they are sort of a hybrid between Protherians and humans that have always inhabited the Vymerrian continent known as Vymerra. Lifespan: 1,000 Size: 5'7 to 7'1
Grastalingardians: These are humans who are literally just Vymerrians under a different name. Humans: Well...I mean...they're normal humans and probably the second most advanced race if not 3rd. Most of mankind is extinct but whats left either fled Earth long ago or have mostly long since forgotten everything about the past. Lifespan: 60 to 100.
Protherian: While it is usually said that the first humans ever were Adam and Eve this is untrue within the LBDU as the first humans were the ancient and long forgotten Protherians who were created through a distortion in reality, they came to be over 2 million years before the creation of man. Average size is anywhere from 5'6 to 7'8.
Lydolls: Lydolls, or "Living Dolls" are life sized dolls or automations with human souls placed inside of them, usually they have a metal frame with porcelain skin and some kind of Krae Stone Orb as a core or "Heart" which contains their soul. They are usually created as guardians or servants, usually personal servants, this is because the average Lydoll is undyingly loyal and devoted to it's designated Mastra ( a made up word for Master.) These dolls are usually devoid of most if not all human emotion, most dolls run on magic while the more advanced models run on X-III and it is very rare that they leave their Mastra's side, this is because most Lydolls require mana to maintain a healthy existence as well as to stay alive, mana of which the Mastra naturally generates. Not having a Mastra would not mean death, however it would cause issues such as the doll loosing "power" for a certain amount of time until they managed to somehow accumulate enough mana to maintain themselves. Think of them as laptop batteries and their Mastras as the chargers for those batteries, when contracted to a Mastra they share that person's natural flow of mana. Dolls that run on X-III however do not often require any mana whatsoever yet still have to be owned by a Mastra. Lifespan: N/A Size: Varies depending on the size chosen for that model.
Animomiri: The Animomiri are humans with animal like features such as claws, wings, tails, fins, gills and etc. Most Animomiri have an average lifespan of 700 years, the average Animomiri is usually either a mercenary, merchant or a house servant. Size: N/A.
Nekomiri: The Nekomiri are humans with cat like features such as ears, claws, tails, fangs and eyes. Their average lifespan is 700 years and most are rogues and thieves often giving them a bad reputation. While they are a sub race of Animomiri, Nekomiri are said to have predated the Animomiri by a few hundred years. The only difference between the two races is that Animomiri are animal people that can be any animal except cats while being vice versa for the Nekomiri. Size: 4'7 - 5'7
Ayviri: The Ayviri are essentially humans with bird like features, unlike the Bird Animomiri these creatures are more bird than human as they have a bird head with bird feet and mostly wing like arms. They have patches of feathers in certain areas such as their back and shoulders as well as their legs, they usually have a rather fancy tail of feathers.
Reptuuji: (Honestly one of my personal favorites right here.) Reptuuji are...well, Lizardfolk. Your Average Reptuuji can grow to be 8'1 and mainly inhabit swampland or caves. The type of Reptuuji varies upon the environment of which they inhabit, there are as many types of Reptuuji as there are lizards or snakes. They often have low intelligence as well as very often live primitive lives, their preferred weapons are spears and large stone axes. They have an average lifespan of 3,000 years and have been rumored to continue growing until they die.
Infestus: Infestus are humans with insect like features who hail from the Vymerrian and Grastalingardian continents, most Infestus despite being based off of insects can live thousands of years while some can live far longer. Their height and weight vary based upon what type of insect they are.
Mermorians: Mermorians, while fish people are essentially humans with fish like features. They have gills on both sides of their necks and fins on both sides of their face. There are also fins on the side of their arms and legs as well as a fin on their backs. Their fingers and toes are webbed allowing them to swim through the water with ease.
Dwarnari: Dwarnari are "Dwarves" and are more often than not a rather small lot, only able to grow to 4'8 at the most but what they lack in size they well make up for in sheer strength alone. Dwarnari are often a huge mass of muscle, most of them take up the role of either a warrior or a blacksmith. Many of them live in mountainous lands or in caverns, having been known to create vast underground cities in the past. While their lifespan can often vary, they have been known to live up to 900 years old with the oldest ever to live being 2,000 despite how rare that may be. Their preferred weapons of choice are usually war hammers, battle hammers, war axes or battle axes.
Hyalvon: Hyalvon are "High Elves" these majestic beings are considered the more superior of the Elvan races and are highly skilled in light magic, most Hyalvon are healers but also have knowledge of each Arcane Art. The average Hyalvon prefers a staff or enchanted weapon, preferably a sword or long bow. Lifespan: 5k Size: 5'7 - 7'2
Seryuim: The Seryuim are what you would normally call Dark Elves, most Seryuim are devoted to Arcane Shadow or "Shadow Magic" however, they are not limited to just shadow magic as they are highly skilled in most of the Arcane Arts. The Seryuim, unlike most of the elvan races who are often entirely devoted to magic are highly skilled in combat such as swordplay and archery. The Seryuim have a natural lifespan of 5,000 years but often prolong their life with the use of magic. Seryuim like most other races mainly inhabit the Vymerrian continent and are scarcely seen in the Continent of Grastalingrad. Average size: 5'7 to 7'2
Moon-Elves: Sub-race of the Seyuim who worship the very moon itself, they typically have a pale almost light complexion and white hair with silver eyes. Nothing else is different.
Bright Elves: Essentially "Sun Elves", the exact opposite of the Seryuim except for in size. They use fire magic or "Sol'dur" which translates to Sun Magic.
Wuudril: Wuudril, or "Wood Elves" mostly inhabit forests. Like most Elvan races, they are highly skilled in the Arcane Arts. They are highly in touch with nature and therefore use mostly nature based magic, they usually stick to bows and daggers above all other forms of weapon. Like all forms of Elf within the LBDU their natural lifespan is 5,000 years while some maintain life through the use of magic or X-III. Their average size is usually anywhere from 5'7 to 7'2.
Orvok: Orvoks are "Orcs" they are an aggressively brutish and generally malevolent as well as repulsive species, most Orvoks are warriors and prefer a battle axe yet are privy to use any and all weapons, as far as lifespan goes your average Orvok can only live to be 40, 45 with the use of magic. In terms of size, your average Orvok can grow to be 5'1 - 5'5.
Goblins, straight out of an anime or a fantasy novel these creatures are often small in stature. They used to be uncivilized and savage in nature....however, most goblin clans have conformed to the ways of the other mortal races. It used to be that Goblins were hunted down by Adventurer's but in 938224ATGF it was decreed that the Goblin race would be protected by law and taught how to be a civilized people, they were given the same rights as the other races and after much effort they were finally treated the same as everyone else. Today, Goblins fight along side the people of Eartherias and take on such roles as Merchants or Mercenaries. It is said that they have a very short lifespand however, shorter even than that of a human. Where the oldest human without the use cybernetic enhancements or magic is said to have died at 200, the oldest Goblin is only known to have been 50 years of age. Because of this, they fuck like rabbits starting at the age of about 18.
Samurai: While this is usually a class defining a warrior, that is not the case with this race. The Samurai are a race of humans born from the remaining people of Japan, having forgotten their nationality and most of their history long ago they decided to declare their race Samurai as they are known as the best warriors within all of Vymerra. Their skill with a blade is unmatched and they use mostly Katana or Nodatchi or glaives, sometimes spears. Lifespan: The average Samurai only lives to be 100 at best, unless they fall in battle before then. Size 4'5 - 5'4
Myrian: The Myrian are said to have been born of Chaos, they mostly inhabit The Chaos Realm but live on and beneath Eartherias as well. In the past they have been called demons, devils and even Yokai...however their true name is Myrian. Lifespan: N/A Size: N/A.
The Guardians: Similar to the angles, these beings had wings made out of pure darkness but looked breath takingly beautiful. They were a race of warriors from the Guardian Realm of which was similar to Heaven in some way or another, they have been around longer than most races and are older than the Angles and as old as God himself. They are all about justice and maintain law and order among the five realms, they don't usually get involved in human affairs but have been known to interfere with certain wars.
Death Walkers: To be born a Death Walker is to inherit the gift of the Reaper's themselves as you shall be able to enter the spectral plane and therefore reconfigure certain aspects of reality such as bringing a large building from the realm of souls into the mortal plane or any plane of existence you find yourself within. The more powerful and more skilled you are the more you can do, such as combat wise abilities like entering into the realm of souls and killing the soul of the person you are fighting causing them to fall over dead or lose their sense of self, if it does not kill them it will stop their movement for a while. However, this ability only works on lesser beings who are weaker than you. Another ability is that you can become ethereal taking absolutely no damage for 60 seconds, if you are looking to become stronger than you must regularly use your abilities as well as feed on the souls of those you've defeated in combat. The more powerful Death Walkers can both bring a person or object from one plane into the other as well as send them back almost at will. Death Walkers, though they may not know it at first are the natural born Emissaries of Death. Just as a god will usually have a Champion, Death Walkers are the champions of "The Fathers." of whom are Death itself having created the Reapers. As they are Emissaries of Death, Death Walkers have a Death Aspect form which is an Elder Lich form, in this form their powers and even magic if they use magic are increased by 20x (Must Be discussed with an Admin.) Death Walkers while specified as a race still requires you to have a sub-race as anyone can be born a Death Walker.
Daedotta: The Daedotta are an ancient race of superior aliens that have existed as long as Umbara, They start off at birth as a small microscopic chip that floats around the air of a planet rich with life and will eventually attach their selves to a corpse, they are so technologically advanced that they not only reanimate that corpse but if that corpse is missing any body part or organ it will scan not just the corpse's DNA but it's literal history scanning as far back in time as it deems necessary and will then use that collected data to either rematerialize the lost body parts or completely reconstruct a new cybernetic version that suits the body. All Daedotta are connected through a highly advanced network and are a hive mind controlled by a queen, the only known way to kill the Daedotta is to kill that Queen. In the event that a queen should fall there will always be a Daedottern Princess of whom will then take her place and control the Hive. However, unlike most Daedotta the princess has her own free will and her own mind while also still being connected to the Hive. The difference between the queens, princesses and the drones is that the Queen role in life is to merge with the Mothership and literally become one with it both physically and mentally as their body becomes integrated into the ship's interior. A Princess is fated to share the same fate if the queen is to die and she to replace the queen upon death, while the Daedottern race may seem like solely females there were once kings, however females were considered more stable and easier to utilize with the technologies of the Daedottern race leading to the kings being decommissioned and thus Obsolete. There hasn't been a sighting of even a single king for many generations. Both the Kings and Queens share the exact same role and function within the hive. (Must Be discussed with an Admin.)
The Shadowborn: This race was created by Umbara for the sole purpose of conquest, they were his children created using an ancient device he had created long ago known as the Shadow Forge. They were created from drops of his blood and given a frame carved from his bone. Among this race were "The Seven" of which he actually called his children. These seven beings were on par with his own power and six of them made up his generals while one of them lead those generals. Why did he create this race? Easy, while he could have easily conquered the five realms single handedly with all of his immense power...he preferred war. He was a being whom liked to conquer an entire realm with an army, he rarely ever used his full power if any. The Shadow Born were that army, an entire race created solely for the conquest of the five realms and they were greatly feared as well as revered by all. They had many forms, but The Seven unlike the rest of the race had two forms if not more. Essentially, they had their humanoid form which appeared to be mostly human in nature and then they had their transformed and or altered state which you could call their true form if you will. Each Shadow Born had one of Umbara's many abilities but the Leader of the Seven had one that was unique of which only the leader and Umbara himself had, this was The Dark Spot. This ability changed everything and kept order among the race as when the Dark Spot is placed on a being it will slowly erase them from existence , removal of the spot is impossible as it will only cause it to spread faster. Having the spot placed on you was an extremely cruel fate as the process was often slow and you felt everything as your body was erased. Sadly, this race was eventually wiped out by Umbara who saw them as a threat. There are rumors that some were left alive and instead imprisoned, but rather or not this is true is yet to be determined. (Must Be discussed with an Admin.)
NEW RACE!!! The Shadowforged, a failed experimental project discarded and disbanded by Umbara during his first conquest of the five realms. They were weapons created for various purposes that mostly included seducing the leaders and even Gods of every realm into being easily falling under Umbara's Influence and thus bending the knee. Unlike The Shadowborn they were spared as an act of mercy but forsaken and discarded like trash, most have found new gods to worship while others have given up on a life without their supreme creator and entered into an eternal slumber of which some may never awaken from. They were hybrids between either a human and a Shadowborn or a Shadowborn and some other race. (Must Be discussed with an Admin.)
Dar’Korian: The Dar’Korians are a race created by Umbara within his realm of existence, they don’t usually leave the realm however there are those who do. To be a Dar’Korian is to be a child of Umbara born from his very essence, to be Dar’Korian is to be a godly entity of immense power that not many can Surpass. Dar’Korians vary in appearance as some look human while others may take on a more divine or even demonic form. All Dar’Korians serve one and only one master and worship only one god and that is Umbara himself. (Must Be discussed with an Admin.)
Androids: Androids are an interesting concept within the LBDU, most were human once but in order to prolong their life or even gain a form of immortality they had their body fully cybered out. Nothing about them is human anymore, though this is not always the case as some Androids were in fact just created by a manufacturer. Those androids are not to be confused with Lydolls as they run completely off of hardware and other cybernetics as well as Daedottern Tech.
Bantaghasts: The Bantaghasts are Wraith like creatures whose dimension is in between dimensions existing between the alternate worlds, they were brought here through one of the cracks in space and time called “Rifts”, these creatures are made up of pure energy. They are essentially what we consider ghosts, they can evolve the longer they live and they feed off of emotions. Not all Bantaghasts are bad nor are they all good, they all have played some kind of role in the lives of humankind such as haunting a house or scaring people by tossing a cup across the kitchen. They are especially attached to children whom have the strongest output of emotions, this usually leads to them having what parents assume to be “Imaginary” friends. Bantaghasts start off very weak and can really lift anything over 10 pounds but as they evolve they become strong, in fact there is rumored to be a group of them in legend who gain corporeal form. These beings are Amortal because they were never born to begin with and therefore can not die or be killed.
Aquerica: The average life span of this race is 300+ years, These creatures have the features of just about any water breathing aquatic animal and are much like the Animomiri in the sense that they are humanoid in shape and have the traits of that aquatic animal. When the new races were born into the new world of Eartherias these creatures inhabited the vast oceans.
(UPDATED!!!) Angels: After Umbara's conquest of the five realms most of the angels had been killed off by either Umbara himself or by his children, the few that still remained had taken to a life of slavery and hardship. There are very few angels left these days, however...five years ago Decius Of Dustgradd defeated the Champion OF Umbara thus breaking the slave collars that robbed the angels of all their power. Five years later, some angels have chosen to willingly serve their masters, mostly because it is the only way of life they ever knew while others have returned home.
