Humans

Summary
"We didn't have claws so we made weapons. We lacked fur so we made clothes. We had no scales so we made armor. Humanity has never stood back, content with the old ways. So when you ask how we are winning ask yourself 'What are we lacking and how can we fix it?"

- Imperial General Stein to a captured Wolfin

Humans are often described as the most diverse and stubborn race in the Heartlands. They are also seen as the most successful holding just over half of the Heartlands for their people.

Humans lack any of the abilities that make the other races special but have a collective spirit that few can trample.

Human Culture
Human culture is divided between three major groups.


 * Northern: Northern humans are very martial with spirituality to match. They keep many traditions that they had when they were a part of the Imperial Heartlands but have taken up the Western Pantheon as opposed to the Imperial Faith.


 * Western: Western humans are very individualistic favoring to look after themselves as opposed to the collective. Very similar to their Northern cousins in matters of martial prowess, they lack conviction when it comes to matters of faith. Though many swear by the pantheon; not many actually attend prayer.


 * Imperial: Imperials are the epitome of humanity at it's most brutal. Imperials are happiest when on the battlefield where many of them would lay down their lives for their god. There is no word for mercy in Imperial culture and there is no word for retreat.
