Android

[android picture] The androids are robotic and cybernetic units designed for a variety of military and hazardous civilian tasks. They have limited intelligence but are capable of immense physical strength. Unlike organic races, androids have no mana. They are not recommended for inexperienced players.

Beer Elf

[beer elf picture] These are the disenfranchised cult who once lived among the Grey Elves. The Grey Elves, disliking the Beer Elves' ways, kicked them out after a rather short and unbloody war. The Beer Elves have since moved in and out of various places, only to be kicked out again and again. Beer Elves are the only really hardy breed of elf, having their constitution increased by generations of liver-destroying alcohol intake. Beer elves are shortish, with perpetually red-rimmed eyes.

Centaur

[centaur picture] Centaurs are mythical half-men, half-horse creatures who dwell far from human habitation in secluded pastures.



Chicken

[chicken picture] You know what a chicken is, right? This is a chicken. There is no good reason to be a chicken.



Coatl

[coatl picture] These feathered reptilian beings are rumored to have descended from the heavens countless millenia ago. They have no legs or feet, but rather their lower body resembles that of a large snake. They have arms, however, and a crest of multihued feathers running down their neck and back a little ways. Quick and cunning, they are adept at both magic and fencing.


               Cold:   Significantly resistant
               Fire:   Slightly susceptible
              Magic:   Slightly resistant
         Magic Cold:   Quite resistant

Draconian

The Draconians are descendants of the dragons of old. They are great reptilian beings, but not nearly as great as their ancient ancestors. The Draconians have been around for many aeons. They have great talents as both powerful fighters and learned casters. Slow, but sure, is the way of the Draconian.

       Asphyxiation:   Very resistant
               Cold:   Very resistant

         Magic Cold:   Quite resistant
            Psionic:   Quite resistant

Drow Elf

The 'Black Elves,' or drow, have been spoken of in legends for centuries. Dwelling deep beneath the surface in subterranean caves and caverns, the drow are as dark as faeries are bright. Drow are known as weak fighters but strong magic-users.

              Magic:   Somewhat resistant
         Magic Cold:   Slightly resistant
     Magic Electric:   Slightly resistant
         Magic Fire:   Slightly resistant
        Magic Force:   Slightly resistant
            Psionic:   Quite resistant

Dwarf

Though the toughest of the civilized races, dwarves are short and stocky with a ruddy complexion and much hair. Because of their great constitution and willpower, dwarves are resistant to both magic and poison.

            Disease:   Moderately resistant
              Magic:   Moderately resistant
     Magic Electric:   Somewhat resistant
         Magic Fire:   Somewhat resistant
        Magic Force:   Somewhat resistant

Elf

Elves are a magical, ancient race. They appear slightly shorter than most humans and are a bit more slender. They have pale skin and light eyes and hair. They have a knack for magic and are fairly nimble people.

              Magic:   Somewhat resistant
     Magic Electric:   Slightly resistant
         Magic Fire:   Slightly resistant
        Magic Force:   Slightly resistant
            Psionic:   Moderately resistant

Gnome

Gnomes are humanoids similar to their larger cousins, dwarves. Most gnomes are wood brown, though a few range from gray brown of skin. Their hair is medium to pure white and their eyes are gray-blue to bright blue. Also, like their dwarven cousins, gnomes have some resistance to magic and poison.

              Magic:   Moderately resistant
     Magic Electric:   Somewhat resistant
         Magic Fire:   Somewhat resistant
        Magic Force:   Somewhat resistant

Goblin

Goblins are just about the most annoying race alive next to Imps. What they lack in strength, intelligence, willpower, dexterity, charisma, and constitution, they make up for in sheer cruelty. Goblins enjoy killing bunnies, butterflies, and dolphins for the simple fact that they exist. Goblins stand about 4 feet high, with largish heads and eternally runny noses. Their skin is a soft greenish color, like pea soup vomit.


            Disease:   Quite resistant
              Magic:   Moderately susceptible
         Magic Cold:   Somewhat susceptible
     Magic Electric:   Somewhat susceptible

        Magic Force:   Somewhat susceptible
            Psionic:   Moderately susceptible

Grey Elf

These noble elves are a very reclusive sort who live in isolated meadowlands and rarely associate with other humanoids. Grey elves have silver hair and amber eyes or pale golden hair and violet eyes. They are more intelligent than most other elves, yet have extremely fragile bodies.

              Magic:   Moderately resistant
     Magic Electric:   Somewhat resistant
         Magic Fire:   Somewhat resistant
        Magic Force:   Somewhat resistant
            Psionic:   Quite resistant

Half Elf

All half-elves are of human stock. They are handsome folk, with the good features of each of their races. They mingle freely with either race, being only slightly taller than the average elf.

              Magic:   Slightly resistant
     Magic Electric:   Slightly resistant
         Magic Fire:   Slightly resistant
        Magic Force:   Slightly resistant

Halfling

Halflings are basically hard-working, orderly and peaceful citizens of communities similar to humans. They are of ruddy complexion, and tend toward brown or sandy brown hair coloration, and have brown or hazel eyes. Halflings also have resistances to magic and poison.

              Magic:   Somewhat resistant
     Magic Electric:   Slightly resistant
         Magic Fire:   Slightly resistant
        Magic Force:   Slightly resistant

High Elf

High elves are another group of reclusive elves who dwell in the mountains and higher hills across the countryside. They have sandy brown hair and dark eyes.

                Ego:   Somewhat resistant
              Magic:   Somewhat resistant
     Magic Electric:   Slightly resistant
         Magic Fire:   Slightly resistant
        Magic Force:   Slightly resistant
            Psionic:   Moderately resistant

High Human

[high human picture] High humans are often taller than elves, but heavier boned, and physically stronger, though less nimble than the elves. Their hair is often dark and they are fair skinned.


               Cold:   Slightly resistant
                Ego:   Somewhat resistant
           Electric:   Slightly resistant

            Psionic:   Slightly resistant
              Toxic:   Slightly resistant

Human

The world is, for the majority, populated with humans. These creatures show a remarkable aptitude for adapting to their surroundings, and often times adapting their surroundings to themselves. Humans are bipedal and come in various shades ranging from a pale yellow to dark black.

Imp

[imp picture] Imps are the physical manifestations of minor demons. They are generally malevolent and have a sadistic sense of humor. Though small and weak, they are fast and tough. They are also noted for their cunning and ruthlessness. They are rumored to have resistance to magic.


           Crushing:   Somewhat susceptible
          Explosive:   Somewhat susceptible
              Magic:   Moderately resistant
     Magic Electric:   Somewhat resistant
         Magic Fire:   Somewhat resistant
        Magic Force:   Somewhat resistant

Ka'nine

The Ka'nine are a race of dog-based humanoids created by some twisted magician. The story goes that he was extremely drunk one night and started fooling around with magic and his doberman. The end result was a very loud, very obnoxious, very loyal race of intelligent beings who in general love nothing more than settling down with a bone in front of a warm fire. One interesting facet of these amazing creatures is their inexplicable hatred of cats. They have been known to attack cats of all kinds with no provocation whatsoever. Ka'nine tend towards being doberman-like, but other varieties have been known to occur. Ka'nine lack manual dexterity, but are surprisingly intelligent.

            Psionic:   Somewhat resistant
              Sonic:   Quite susceptible

Kender

Kenders are near in height to dwarves, but this is where the similarities end. Kenders are very cheerful creatures, almost to the point of annoyance, as dwarfs tend to hate these jolly souls. They have a tendency to 'borrow' things from people without telling them. Having a naturally insatiable curiosity, kenders make excellent lock pickers and general gatherers of seemingly useless information.

                Ego:   Completely resistant

Klingon

Klingons are a large, strong warrior race. They hold their honor sacredly above all else. They live for the hunt, the fight and the kill. Although Klingons are not noted for their mental prowess, they do have a flare for combat tactics. Klingon bodies develop into a muscular frame, their hair thick and black against dark skin.

                Ego:   Quite susceptible
            Psionic:   Slightly susceptible

Low Human

[low human picture] Low humans are often ugly little creatures; some skin is often missing from places of their body, exposing bone. They are physically weaker than most worms, their hair is often gone, and they rarely have a full set of teeth.


            Disease:   Somewhat resistant
              Toxic:   Somewhat resistant

Lobstar Bear

Lobstar Bears are, like the name suggests, a cross between a bear and a lobster. These ursocrustaceans stand roughly the same height as a human when mature, though they continue to grow throughout their lives. Their skin is thick, matted blackish or brownish fur broken up with chitinous plates that cover large, nonflexible areas. Their thorax is segemented plates, and they have a swept carapace from their shoulders to the top of their head. Though they remain mostly flexible, they lack some of the range of movement as humans, notable in their lack of neck, and relatively short, stubby legs. Lobstar Bears stink really badly. Another notable feature is that they have claws rather than hands. While being more flexible and developed than traditional lobster claws, they are still lacking when compared to hands. Their chitinous plates are greenish/blueish, and prevent them from wearing much in the way of additional armor. The plates do grow thicker and stronger as they grow older, occasionally being shed and replaced.


               Cold:   Significantly resistant
               Fire:   Somewhat susceptible
         Magic Cold:   Somewhat resistant
         Magic Fire:   Somewhat susceptible

Merfolk

Merfolk resemble humans or elves from the waist up, with slightly pointed ears and brightly colored eyes. Below the waist merfolk possess a long piscine tail, which is flexible enough to allow them to move upon dry land. Merfolk are naturally agile and are particularly adept with piercing weapons, but must regularly return to deep waters to maintain full health.


               Cold:   Somewhat resistant
         Magic Cold:   Somewhat resistant
              oison:   Somewhat resistant

Nymph

[nymph picture] Nymphs are graceful and supernaturally beautiful creatures that live for pleasure. They are always female and are reclusive, usually living away from the noise of cities, taking their pleasure from wandering humans, or venturing into the cities for short stays. Their physical appearance is as diverse as that of humans, ranging from black skin to pale pink, but all are beautiful. Their ears are pointed, but not so sharply as those of elves. They resent wearing any but the most scanty clothing and dislike weapons intensely, for they despise combat. They have a strong will and high dexterity to aid in their nightly pursuits.


              Blunt:   Slightly susceptible
           Crushing:   Moderately susceptible
                Ego:   Highly resistant
          Explosive:   Moderately susceptible
            Falling:   Moderately susceptible
              Magic:   Quite resistant
            Psionic:   Quite resistant
          Withering:   Highly resistant

Orc

Greater orcs have become domesticated, as much as trolls. Orcs are heavy of build, bred as warriors and laborers. They prefer darkness to bright light and tend to be less social than other races.

            Disease:   Moderately resistant
              Magic:   Somewhat susceptible
         Magic Cold:   Somewhat susceptible
     Magic Electric:   Somewhat susceptible
         Magic Fire:   Somewhat susceptible
        Magic Force:   Somewhat susceptible
            Psionic:   Moderately susceptible

Parthan

[parthan picture] Parthans are a race of large, feline predators. They have basically humanoid bodies, but with long, sturdy tails. They also have a thick pelt of fur which varies from individual to individual. Most common are black or orange coats, however. Parthans have a strong sense of honor, but by no means consider honor as important as one's life. Evolved for combat, they excel in the physicial, while lacking in the mental. Parthan warriors are common, but Parthan magic users are rare, and very respected.


               Cold:   Somewhat resistant
            Falling:   Quite resistant
               Fire:   Slightly susceptible
         Magic Cold:   Somewhat resistant
         Magic Fire:   Slightly susceptible
            Psionic:   Somewhat susceptible

Pig

[pig picture] This is a cute ungulate with a short, curly tail. Though pigs have long been oppressed on EotL by their barnyard brothers, the sheep and the chickens, the pigs are coming back strong to kick some ass and take a few names.

                 Ego:   Slightly resistant

Pixie

Creatures of Faerie, pixies are small and fragile, but very quick and intelligent. Since leaving the Faerie realms, their butterfly-like wings have become mostly vestigial, but they are lovely to behold. Pixies are charming creatures, generally adept at mischievous types of magic, but strongly disinclined where physical confrontation is concerned, due to the fragile and vulnerable nature of their wings.

          Explosive:   Somewhat susceptible
            Falling:   Slightly resistant
               Fire:   Significantly susceptible
              Magic:   Significantly resistant
         Magic Cold:   Moderately resistant
     Magic Electric:   Moderately resistant
         Magic Fire:   Somewhat susceptible
        Magic Force:   Moderately resistant

Skaven

Skaven are a race of large, rodent scavengers. They have a basic humanoid build, but have features that are characteristic of rats. Their body is covered with a coat of hair, usually brown in color, and they have a long, hairless tail. Skaven are a very quick and agile race, with below-average endurance and mental powers.

            Disease:   Very resistant
               Fire:   Slightly susceptible
         Magic Fire:   Slightly susceptible
            Psionic:   Somewhat susceptible

Skaven Magi

Skaven are a race of large, rodent scavengers. They have a basic humanoid build, but have features that are characteristic of rats. Their body is covered with a coat of hair, usualy brown in color, and they have a long, hairless tail. Skaven magi are not as quick as the standard Skaven, but they are mentally superior and have a natural talent for magic.

            Disease:   Very resistant
               Fire:   Slightly susceptible
              Magic:   Quite resistant
         Magic Fire:   Slightly susceptible
        Magic Force:   Moderately resistant

Spriggan

If a spriggan were to stand still long enough for you to get a good look, you might mistake it for a realistic children's doll. Spriggans are elven in appearance in all ways except scale. Due to their small size, spriggans are limited in what they can wield, wear, and carry. However, whatever they lack in stature they more than make up in effort. Spriggans are nimble, intelligent, extremely hard to hit, and seem to have no problems finding ways to strike their opponents in the most uncomfortable of places.


Squid

[squid picture] Squids have evolved to the point where they can now live upon and traverse the land with relative ease. A Squid's body consists mainly of its dome, or head, and its eight tentacles.


       Asphyxiation:   Completely resistant
     Magic Electric:   Somewhat susceptible

Swiss Vampire Elf

[sve picture] These creatures are superior in almost every way to almost all other races. They are, however, parasites of other sentients and despite their inborn superiority, have managed to botch everything up and aren't running the world, despite popular belief.


       Asphyxiation:   Highly susceptible
               Beam:   Highly susceptible
              Blunt:   Highly susceptible

          Withering:   Highly susceptible
             Wooden:   Devastatingly susceptible

Teddy Bear

[teddy picture] Teddy Bears are small, lovable creatures. Their paws are too clumsy to wield most weapons, and their awkward body shape prohibits most armor from being worn, also. They are, however, small and agile, reasonably intelligent, and cute as a race can be.



Trenol

Trenols, a moneky-like race who're slowly becoming more peculiar, have just about all of the features of the human race. On average, they are not so tall or as strong as a human, yet they are quick and pack quite a constitution. They are especially fond of humans (which they call "tail-less ones") and of polished gems.


Troll

Trolls are horrid carnivores found in nearly every clime. They are feared by most creatures, much supported by their raw strength. Unfortunately, they are also very stupid, which often becomes the downfall of trolls. Troll hide is a nauseating moss green, mottled green and gray, or putrid gray. The writhing, hair-like growth upon a troll's head is greenish black or iron gray. The eyes of trolls are dull-black.

            Disease:   Quite resistant
           Electric:   Very resistant
               Fire:   Very susceptible
     Magic Electric:   Very resistant
         Magic Fire:   Very susceptible
            Psionic:   Highly susceptible
              Toxic:   Quite susceptible

Wood Elf

Sometimes called sylvan elves, these creatures are very reclusive and generally avoid all contact. They are unusually strong for elves but aren't quite as intelligent. They live in primaeval forests and distant woodlands. Their complexion is fair, their hair is yellow to coppery red, and their eyes are light brown, light green, or hazel.

              Magic:   Somewhat resistant
     Magic Electric:   Slightly resistant
         Magic Fire:   Slightly resistant
        Magic Force:   Slightly resistant
            Psionic:   Somewhat resistant

Zombie

Zombies are 'life challenged' individuals who are universally afflicted with an insatiable craving for brains. No, not education. Zombies are strong and have an incredible endurance, accompanied by a powerful aversion to fire and magical or holy weapons. Zombies draw no breath, eat no food (other than the aforementioned brains), and do not play well with children. Not recommended for inexperienced players.

      Asphyxiation:   Completely resistant
