Lefrain

Immortals of the Forests

A proud race that have a delicate and primal humanoid appearance, with beast legs, horns and pointed ears. They are immortal and though not proportionally stronger in magic their usage and types differ from Magone magic. Though they walk among the other species they tend to keep to themselves and the majority live in their capitals that are hidden in the wilderness. Their capitals are ruled by a noble family, who answer to the royal family who have ruled since the birth of their species. The seat of the royal family is hidden from the other races. Their main deity of worship is the Goddess Saevanna, but they also hold Lazair, Lyel, and Solnyn in high regard.

Bloodlines

The Lefrain can be categorised into their 5 bloodlines; each with their own duties, affinities, and physical aspects. It isn’t uncommon for Lefrain with mixed bloodlines, but they are made to choose when they reach adulthood. The bloodlines originate from the legends of the birth of the species; the first five Lefrain born begin the origin for each bloodline, and also the bloodlines duties. The fifth bloodline was eliminated in the first Dark Era, though traces remain.

Royal Bloodline

The first bloodline, charged with the duty of ruling over the Lefrain. The smallest of the bloodlines, all kings and queens of the Lefrain are from this bloodline. As they are immortal, it is more common for the current sovereign to step down, passing on the crown to their heir. If there are more than one descendant, then the most suitable is chosen, and the others take on a noble role in the royal court, or become a ruling noble in one of the other cities. As by this rule. All cities and the capital are ruled by the royal bloodline. Aside from having a strong affinity for magic, they are marked by their sharp features and ivory skin, which contrasts their dark eyes and white hair. Their ears point upwards, and they have single horns.

Guardian Bloodline

The second bloodline whose duty it is to protect not just the royal bloodline but all of the Lefrain. Physically the toughest of the bloodlines, the majority of them become warriors, or at least a job relating to it; such as a blacksmith. Additionally to a strong physical form, they are well practiced in black magic, though it is only of average strength. They have dark skin, dark eyes, and light brown to white coloured hair, backward or low lying horns, and level ears.

Magician Bloodline

The third bloodline, whose duty is to guide the Lefrain people, they are made up of magicians and scholars; recording history and knowledge of their people. They are the strongest and most diverse in magic across elements and types. They have a more fragile physical appearance, with strikingly light coloured eyes, and white hair. Their skin is dark, with twisted horns, and level ears.

Forest Bloodline

The remaining bloodline considered the common folk and charged to serve. They occupy all jobs from hunters and gatherers to crafters and entertainers. They are the most numerous of the bloodline. They are most diverse physical appearance and in magic ability and strength, their ears are pointed downward, and they have antlers.

Watcher Bloodline

The lost bloodline, they were charged with gathering information and watching the world. Essentially they were spies, working on the border of the law, which is also the reason why they died out in the first Dark Era. When the Nhillpaic attacked and the Lefrain fought back, the Watcher Bloodline attempted to get behind enemy lines so to speak, and into their heads. This led them to risking the forbidden magic’s, which ultimately led to their demise; either by the magic backfiring, by the hands of the Nhillpaic, or by the hands of their own kin when they become corrupted. Thus the bloodline vanished, though some Lefrain still carry its heritage. Physically they shared the ivory skin and dark eyes with the royal bloodline, but they have dark coloured hair, and downward pointing ears. And unlike the other bloodlines they have three horns instead of two.

Ocru

Immortals of the Oceans

Related to the Perna, they have the upper body of a human, and the lower body of a fish. They live in the oceans mostly, but sometimes they venture up steam into lakes. They are immortal and like Magone, some of them are magic users. Their magic can give them legs to walk on land for a certain amount of time, but most never do. They live in groups of 15 to 30, and while they have a kingdom where they live, a lot travel with their swarms through the oceans.

Gypsy Folk

These Ocru live in pods and travel through the ocean. They have more darker colours that camouflage them, additionally they tend to have spines and other offensive physical attributes; which they developed through the ages. They are also more aggressive and cautious than their brethren. They are ruled by Oligarchic families.

Nhillpaic

Mortals and Immortals of the Dark

They live in another plane, to which they were banished to by the gods. Through gates they can enter into Kelia and often do. They were up till now the cause of three dark eras, before they were banished again. Not much is known about their society, but the demons are of varying mental capability and physical appearance. Though mostly believed to be evil, they actually also vary in purpose, most mindless beasts, some actually ill natured, and a few neutral or good willed. They can be categorised into Devils, who are mortal, or Demons, who are immortal. Beyond that they can be ranked by power or intelligence; those with higher intelligence tending to group together, some even forming a small society, although those are uncommon. Those with lower intelligence tend to follow one leader and are controlled by their natures. Though most Nhillpaic are caught in the other plane, there are a few that live in Kelia; some are hidden amongst the general population. But the majority are hidden in the Nhillpaic Range where they range free. This causes the other species to avoid the mountain range.

Balance

Law of the Universe

This symbol represents the balance in the world and between good and evil. The red crescent represents the evil all around, while the red circle represents the evil within. The remaining white crescent represents the good in the world.

Creation of the Universe

In the very beginning of time and the universe, the Goddess was born. Where she came from is the biggest mystery to date, but one that is accepted as fact and not even known by the Gods. The Goddess brought life into nothing, making it grow into the vast universe we know now. But where there is light there must be shadow, and from the shadows was born evil. The Goddess Agia and the evil known as Zyr fought, as was their nature and they were destined to do. But as they were equal in power, balancing the universe perfectly, the battle could only end in one way. And as Agia knew that no life could exist as long as Zyr lived, she sacrificed her life to destroy him. This cataclysmic event gave birth to the world of Kelia, and from the shards of Agia the thirteen Gods were born, who with each a part if Agia’s powers, shaped the world and gave it life. The ashes of evil spread through the world, most of it into the shadows and retreating into the remote parts of the world. But a little of it was imbedded into the living world, ensuring that the races were not only controlled by pure thoughts.
