Human

The origins of humanity trace back to a singular, divine event. It is said that when the goddess Malinor wept for the beauty of creation, one of her tear fell to the material plane. From this tear, life sprung forth in a form unlike any other—the first humans. Born of divine sorrow and mortal clay, humans are known for their boundless versatility, determination, and the ability to shape the world around them. As the most widespread and populous race, humans have built sprawling civilizations, braved the untamed wilderness, and left their mark on every corner of the realms.
