The Human Races

Humans are amongst the shortest lived, but most promising of all races. Quick to pick up skills and a capability to adapt to almost any terrain, humans are found almost everywhere in the Lands of Skye. Humans have all the features as listed in the D20 Players Handbook. Human tribes and civilizations have thrived along the plains and forests in the west, the vast tundra in the North, the dense Jungles in the south, and even in the vast deserts in the East.

As a human, you should select a region that you orininate from. Each region defines your characters physical characteristics, languages , additional class skills and feats, and equipment that is available to you, as well as class availability.

  • Aesiran (Pictish)- Known also as Picts and Barbarians, these humans live in the forests and mountains to the northwest of the known lands. All picts have WildernesLore and Knowledge (Nature) as class skills, even if their chosen classes do not normally indicate such.
  • Arlun (Surian)- Golden skin and narrow eyes, these humans live in the northeast in the regions of Suria. The Arlun are proficient in Eastern exotic weapons, but not in the unbalanced weapons of the west, such as longsword and great axe.
  • Dalgobian - These are considered the original people of the western lands of what is now Skye.  This group of people were originally nomads with no known permanent cities, scattered throughout the lands, but now settled in the northern scrub lands after the great war a thousand years ago. Most dalgobian are taller then most other human races (about 6" taller on average), are bronze in skin tone and have dark wavy or curly hair.  Their complexions can be from a lighter coppery color to deep brown and their hair is usually black but also can be dark brown or brown. 

    The early dalgobian peoples were peaceful nomads and travelled the land seasonally. They lived off the land and held nature in high regard.  Today some of the pureblooded Dalgobian show many characteristics of their ancestors.  They prefer the open outdoors to cities and are known as excellent horsemen.

    Modern dalgobian usually dress in loose fitting clothing in reds and browns, bound with a dark sash. Automatic class skills: Riding (horse) and Handle Animal.

  • Anglessey -Encompassing the region of the the kingdoms of Skye, the kingdoms of the Heartlands, and the Kingdoms of the Western Isles, the Anglessey race are a pale skined breed with average human height and build. They have black, brown, blonde, and in some cases even silvery hair, a wide range of eye colors, and are quite comely. Automatic class skills: Diplomacy.
  • Amazonian - Darker in complexion, and varying in height, the Amazonian tribes and kingdoms are far more powerful than many outsiders believe. Automatic class skills: Wilderness Lore.
