The Half-Elf, Elwais, the Half-Dwarf, Roorik, and the pure Man, Resk, were also among the first born of the Second Races. The pure Elf, Errwain, followed shortly, becoming the God of the Woods. O’Sin, the pure Man, our god of War and Thunder, and his wife Risa, another pure Man, goddess of Life and the Sky, were among the first born and the most powerful. The First Races soon gave birth to new warriors the Second Races, which included the first of the Half Races.įrom the Second Races, our Gods were born.

Dragons, Treefolk and savage Orrcs sprung from the world, as did beings from other planes of existence.

The same of the Dwarves, though, with the rock and clay of the land. Greatest of all, though, was the race of Man.Įlves had an uncanny affinity with the trees, being able to manipulate their growth to their whims. Even more so, each race was blessed with a gift close to the Old One who had made it. These First Races were near as powerful as the Old Ones, but without the ability to create life.

Dwarves, Elves, Halflings, and many more sprung from the magik’s of the Old Ones, bringing life to the lands of Eorus.
