Humans

The children of Pelor, Humans have become the most nurmours race in Duenis.

History of the Humans.
 Created by Pelor at the beginning of the Godling Empires, the Humans built many city states with the aid of the Halflings. Their fledgling Empire was almost extinguished in the Awakening. As dragons roamed the lands many cities fell, but Humans being numerous faired better than the other races.

 With the help of the Halflings the Humans from Aldacia became the hub of what become known as the Aldacian Empire. The empire spread out across Duenis until its size almost rivalled the ancient Iokharic Empire. As the empire stretched over more land it became harder to control. When the entire royal family was assassinated the Empire completely fractured into warring factions and the age of the Aldacian Empire ended.

 From amongst the upheaval of the end of the empire the Nobles of the city of Essylia struck a deal with the diabolic powers of demons. From this union the first Tieflings emerged. Alongside their demonic allies they raised armies of the dead and seized the city and soon after drove out into the surrounding lands. As more and more cities fell to the forces of Essylia their conquests became known as the Dark Empire.

 A  Half Elf called Mikal Quinn built up an army comprised of Humans, Halflings, Dwarves, Dragonborn and Elves and struck back at the forces of Essylia as they laid siege to the twin cities of Ackonia. Eventually the Forces of Quinn drove deep into the heart of the Dark Empire finally attacking Essylia and raising it to the ground and shattering the great planar portals that brought the empires demonic reinforcements.



 With the Dark Empire shattered the surviving human cities rebuilt. For now at least the ages of empires seem to be over as Humans have settled into a series of city states of varying size and power.

Humans of the current age.
Humans of the current age are as varied as the stars in the sky. Their experiences have made them strong but they are prone to succumbing to the same dark temptations that brought about the Dark Empire. Humanity is about choice. For better or worse.
