Other Races

Hybrid People

Other races, usually called hybrid people, are humanoid races who show as much human traits as to be considered human, but have a distinct visual difference.

Sirins

Sirins inhabit at least half of Windas, mostly keeping to the northern boreal forests and frozen mountains. It's not known exactly when or how sirins came about, but the human tribes of Windas have been speaking of sirins for generations. To these tribes, sirins are essentially nature spirits. They appear as stout humanoids, covered in fur, with big bushy tails. They have large round pawed feet and have claws on their hands and feet, reddish hair, and blue eyes.

Patre

The Patre are an ancient magical people who appeared in Sacre centuries ago. Since this region, known as the Great Dustlands, is a vast and unknown desert, very little contact was made with the Patre. Everything known about them comes from a few stories of early Vaman and Gnaisor people. They appear as tall, sturdy people with olive skin, light brown hair, bright blue eyes, and ram-like horns growing from their heads.

Keid

The Keid look mostly human. They live throughout the jungles of Jindiara and mainly constitute the Shaai, Gexri, and Ngoed groups. The Keid are led by their Hireos king called Buroba. They are athletic, very tall, and strong, with long dark brown hair and dark skin, and green eyes that seem to glow in dim light. They are mortal enemies with the Fanorans.

Ildemin

Ildemin are possibly the most despised humanoid race throughout Riiga. Their origins are unknown, and they are distinguishable by their animal-derived addition to their bodies, which varies from person to person, such as parts from dogs, cats, snakes, birds, lizards, and so on. They are sometimes called illmen and are widely considered to be curses, and they are all sterile.

Anti-Human Races

Though not monsters in a strict sense, some hybrid races express nothing but contempt and violence toward humans and humanoid people. They are regarded as monsters by some.
