1. elf elves race
Elves mingle freely in humans lands, always welcome yet never at home
there. Elves favor things of natural and simple beauty. When danger
threatens their woodland homes, however, elves reveal a more martial side,
demonstrating skill with sword, bow and battle strategy.
Elves are more often amused than excited, more likely to be curious than
greedy. With such long lives, they tend to keep a broad perspective on
events, remaining aloof and unfazed by petty happenstance. When pursuing
gold, however, whether an adventurous mission or learning a new skill or
art, they can be focused and relentless. They are slow to make friends and
enemies and even slower to forget them. They reply to petty insults with
disdain and to serious insults with vengeance.
Elves are short and slim, stand about 4 to 5 feet tall and typically weigh
85 to 135 pounds, with elven men the same height as and only marginally
heavier than the elven women. They are graceful but frail. They tend to be
pale‑skinned and dark‑haired, with deep green eyes and no facial or body
hair. Elves possess unearthly grace and fine features. Many humans and
members of other races find them hauntingly beautiful.

2. humans race
Humans are the most adaptable, flexible, and ambitious people among the
common races. They are diverse in their tastes, morals, customs, and
habits. They can be hardy or fine, light‑skinned or dark, showy or austere,
primitive or civilized, devout or impious, humans run the gamut. They
typically stand from 5 feet to a little over 6 feet tall and weigh from 125
to 250 pounds. With men noticeably taller and heavier then women. Thanks
to their penchant for migration and conquest, and to their short
generations, humans are more physically diverse than other common races,
with skin shades that run from nearly black to very pale, hair from black to
blond, and facial hair (for men) from sparse to thick.

3. giants race
Giants are a legendary warrior race, some of the mightiest mortal
fighters in history. An evolutionary cousin to humans, they resemble
massive men and women. Giants value raw power and strength, and it is
important to them as a race that none be perceived as "weak", either in the
eyes of their peers or outsiders. This does not mean they are bloodthirsty,
just that when push comes to shove, a giant will be ready to either shove
back or stand like a stone tower. Most giants are loud and boisterous,
boasting of their great prowess. Often this is just a face, because giants
are also deeply introspective. They are huge, and extremely tough and look
very much like large humans. They have the same wide range of skin, hair
and eye colors as humans. They stand anywhere from nine to twelve feet
tall, and have heavily muscled frames. They often wear their hair long, but
are as likely to be clean shaven as to sport a massive beard.

Vampires are known in this world to be dead humans who have returned from
the grave. They feed on the blood of the living as a means to sustain
themselves. Vampires are generally creatures of the night as they burn in
the sunlight. They are extremely vulnerable to fire and holy damage, but
are resistant to illnesses, the cold, and negative damage. Vampires can
drink blood and eat corpses to heal themselves. The corpses do not need to
be picked up off the ground to eat them.

6. race felines kitty cats
Felines are a most curious race. They are warm‑blooded and extremely
finicky by nature. Unlike many other races, they are not needy, but choose
who they want in their lives. They have exceedingly good eyesight and can
detect hidden and invisible creatures from far away. They are a race born
to see in the dark, so they very well attack when least expected. They are
resistant to illnesses and the cold due to their thick fur coat. They also
see right through the tricks of those who charm or intimidate. However,
they are very vulnerable to fire and water, as they hate extremities of
nature. Being an extremely dexterous race, they are very adept to the
second and third attack skills.

7. shades race
Shades are ethereal beings whose power grows at night, their strength
nurtured by the shadows. It is unclear why some earthly objects simply pass
through their bodies while others do not, why they are unaffected by
blindness from dirt kicking, yet they can be mortally wounded by blades and
magic. When standing in dark locations, any onlookers not affected by true
sight simply see a shadowy figure with no details to help identify the
shade.

Syntax: race list
race info <race name>
race stat <stat>
race change (to see costs ‑ for full details see below)
race remove <ALL or effect name>
race reset <ALL or effect name>
Race list
This syntax will display a list of all races and their evolutions.
Race stat <stat1> <stat2> ...
This command organizes starting and evolution races based on the
stat or combination of stats entered. For example, 'race stat dex'
will list races in descending dexterity, while 'race stat int wis'
will sort races by the combined total of intelligence and wisdom.
On the right side of the sheet are the training costs for each
stat. This functionality can also be found on the website.
Race change <new race>
To morph into a tier 1 race, you must be hero level and have 50 faux levels
or you can change your race at any level with a race change token. If you
have a race change token in your inventory, this will automatically be
spent in place of faux levels. Race change tokens can be purchased with the
mudpie command.
The requirements to morph into a tier 2 race are:
‑ 1 Legend‑level class
‑ 200 faux levels
‑ 1,000,000 gold
‑ 25 mudpies
‑ 100,000 questpoints
‑ Completion of a mission which unlocks tier 2
‑ You must obtain a secret shop item required for your target tier 2 race
To change to an evolution race you must either be the starting race of that
evolution or already an evolution race of the same type. For example,
Hatchling to Emerald Dragon or Emerald Dragon to Black Dragon.
Upon changing your race, any practices you spent on your old race's skills
and spells will be returned to you. Your equipment will be removed and all
skill and spell buffs will be stripped. You will automatically be re‑buffed
with the racial effects of your new race but you must re‑wear your
equipment. Your stats will be adjusted to those of your new race. Racial
effects are listed on the affects sheet with (perm) next to them. Your
hitpoints and mana will fluctuate if you are changing into or out of a final
evolution race.
*** IMPORTANT RECOMMENDATION BEFORE CHANGING RACE ***
In general, your stats will change drastically after changing your race.
This is *NOT* a bug. Your stats will very likely be lower because your
equipment will be removed and your buffs will be stripped upon changing your
race. After this, the starting stats from your current race will be
subtracted from your stats and the starting stats from your new race will be
added.
Many players have contacted the staff saying their stats were completely
wrong after their race change. This is not true. Please, to avoid
miscalculating your stats and assuming there is a bug, follow these steps
and you will correctly calculate what your new stats will be after changing
your race:
1. Remove your gear.
2. Cancel your buffs (go to a healer and heal cancel).
3. Use 'race remove all' to remove your current race's racial buffs.
4. Remove all of your sigils.
5. Subtract your current race's starting stats from your stats.
6. Add your new race's starting stats to those numbers.
This (plus any buffs from your new race) will be the end result to your
stats once you've changed your race.
Any fluctuation of stats, hp, and mana is due to the order you re‑equip
and re‑buff yourself after changing your race. Please also note that your
stats from your original and new race may differ, causing buffs to give you
more or less of a stat than before the race change. If you miss casting a
buff or forget to re‑equip a piece of equipment, this can cause fluctuation
as well.
Race remove <ALL or effect name>
This syntax will strip you of all racial effects or of a certain effect.
Race reset <ALL or effect name>
The syntax will buff you with all of your racial effects or only a certain
effect.

ground in sunlight. Not much is known about this race except that they
evolved from the Shadow race. Some say the Yukes are only souls that use a
physical form, their armor, to augment their magical abilities. The Yuke
are completely immune to ailments such as disease and poison, and because of
their extreme fortitude, they are also resistant to mental attacks. If a
player is not effected by the TRUE SIGHT spell and looks in a room where
there is a Yuke, the player will see 'a silent soul' in the room. Yukes are
immune to blindness (from dirt kicking only).

flesh that leads to the disappearance of many who wander into their trees.
They horde forgotten knowledge and lore as eagerly as they accumulate

36. dwarf dwarves race
Dwarves are short, tough and mighty. They are well known for patronizing
bars and taverns, and tales of their drinking skills are legendary. They
are also known for their ferocious fighting and stubbornness. Dwarves are
not taken to flights of fancy, but neither are they totally grim and
humorless. Family history, clan and personal honor are of utmost importance
to the dwarven race. Dwarves are also well known for their honesty, almost
to the point of bluntness, and would be a valuable ally and friend, or a
fearsome enemy. Dwarves are shorter than most humanoids, standing anywhere
from three to four and a half feet in height. Their frames are very stocky
and muscular. Dwarven men value facial hair, and rarely ever shave it.
Instead, their beards are worn long, with braiding and other such
ornamentation. It has been said that dwarf women also grow beards, but this
absurd notion would earn anyone so foolish to ask a firm slap in the teeth.
Dwarven hair colors are normally black, brown, blonde or red, but dwarves
usually go grey quite early. Eyes can also be any color. Dwarves have no
love for the evil races of the world, but their hatred of orcs (their
ancestral enemies) is almost unrivaled. Very rarely will a dwarf be civil
with an orc. Dwarves are naturally good, and often wonder why the hell
everyone else can't be. The dwarven constitution for alcohol is legendary.
With mighty draughts that would fell a normal man, a dwarf is just getting
warmed up. When in this drunken rage, it is said that a dwarf can fight
better and takes less damage from hits. They also are unhindered while
walking and do not stumble about as other races do while intoxicated.

37. ogres race
The ogre race is one comprised of muscular, powerful humanoids. Ogres
respect strength and power, and have little use for those who they see as

stupid. Some view the ogres as bloodthirsty and warlike as their way of
life is one that more civilized people would call barbaric. Ogres simply
see things in a different worldview ‑ there's right, there's wrong, and
those who are wrong should be crushed and driven before them. Their skin is
like a human's, only thicker and tougher. Ogres have strong, lantern‑jaws
and pointed ears. Their hair is often worn long, and can come in any shade
of color. Deep‑set eyes are often blue or brown, but can also be any
pigment. Ogres stand around seven to nine feet tall and are often as wide
around as two men. It is speculated that ogres live as long as humans,
perhaps longer.

38. illithids race
Illithids, or "mind flayers", as they are known, are mysterious beings
with extraordinary mental powers. They are the dimensional travelers, and
are rumored to have traveled to Erion from dimensions with unutterable
names.
Illithids are cold, logical and calculating. They do not often show
emotion, unless it is the grim satisfaction in utterly dominating an enemy.
They are wholly evil and manipulative, using their keen intellect to
overcome their overall physical weakness. They possess many great secrets,
and would use their powers to enslave an entire race, if need be. Some say
that to trust an Illithid is to court death.
Illithids are bipedal humanoids with heads that could only be described as
squid‑like. Their skin is smooth, slimy and grayish, and they have
tentacles that hang down the front of their face. Their eyes are unnerving,
with pale, milky globes that seem to bore right into the mind of an
observer. When an illithid speaks, it is with an otherworldly voice. They
are often in conflict with the drow and duergar, their traditional
competitors for space in the underworld.

and would even kill their brothers if there were an advantage to doing so.
Like their Dwarven brethren, Duergar are typically stocky figures, though
beyond this there are many differences. Both male and female Duergar are
typically bald, with females also lacking the capacity to grow facial hair.
When they are not bald, however, Duergar grow spiny quills like those of a
porcupine rather than typical hair, both along their scalp and in their
beards.
Averaging 4 feet tall, they weigh nearly as much as an adult Human. While
other Dwarves tend to be round‑bodied and stoutly muscled, Duergar are wide
of shoulder but wiry and lean, their limbs corded with tough muscle. Their
skin is light or dark gray, and their eyes are dull black. They have
complete darkvision and while they can withstand sunlight, they are
vulnerable to light‑based attacks.

three‑fingered hands. They differ from Illithids in that their skin does
not glisten with slime, rather it is dry, wrinkled, and cracked and purplish
blue in color. Their eyes are pale white and they can see perfectly well in
both darkness and light. Although sunlight does not cause them physical
harm, they loathe its brightness and feel a sensitivity to it.

and few creatures have the grit to challenge them. Their formidable mental
powers are their greatest weapon, their understanding of the universe
running so deep that it would drive most normal mortals insane. They are
humanoid in shape and possess an octopus‑like head with silver‑white eyes.

sticking out. Kyuubis have nine tails, each tipped purple, and sport long
claws of the same color. Its muzzle is long and pointed, like its
golden‑tipped ears, and on its face are markings resembling a kitsune. The
fur has a special property which gives resistance to fire and it is said

They are betrayed only by their tails, which can be cow‑like or fox‑like,

45. weblings race
A webling is the name given to spiderlings in their youngest form, before
they have fully matured.
Brown, grey or black cover most of their bodies, with occasional flashes of
bright yellow, red or orange in their chitin, with eight long, multijointed
legs, the only way to distinguish a webling from a more usual large spider
are their human like faces, and their habit of walking on four hind legs set
in double pairs, with their upper body and front four legs raised to mimic
the torso and arms of a humanoid.
Though not inclined to wear clothes, some Weblings do don armor for extra
protection, or to more easily blend in with other races should they need to
go above ground. Indeed, with two legs each shoved into jackets and
trousers, weblings could pass for three‑foot tall humanoids, provided nobody
looks too closely.
Like all spiderlings, weblings usually live in underground colonies, deep
under the earth, each ruled by a matriarch or ruling queen, who controls
most of the colony's residents by the force of her will alone.
Though often associated with the dark arts, and particularly the drow elves'
fearsome spider goddess, since each colony's queen is a lore unto herself,
spiderling attitudes can vary hugely, from seeing other races as food, to
mistrusting them, to even trading with them freely, although all spiderlings
tend to share a love of quiet underground places and a desire to work on
their intricately woven, web art works in peace.
When Weblings do venture above ground, either exiled from their home
colonies, or simply leaving on missions of discovery, their speed and
versatility often make up for their brittle chitin, which makes them
vulnerable to crushing blows. Although their life underground has made them
fear light, they can use their webs to keep opponents off balance, making
them formidable opponents in battle.

46. taranchulans taranchulums race
Taranchulum are weblings who have survived past childhood long enough to
metamorphose into their adult form.
Spinning a densely cocooned sphere of silk, the webling enters, usually

as a much different being.
Taranchulum stand six feet tall, and retain the black, grey or brown
colouring they had as weblings, though usually the brighter markings on their
chitin have faded to dull reds or golds.
As well as growing in size, Taranchulum's faces more closely resemble those
of spiders, with large protruding fangs and flashing compound eyes, usually
gleaming a ruby red or bright gold.
No longer able to pass for humanoids on the surface, many Taranchulum return
to their home colonies, using their formidable web abilities to create great
silken poems, as they prepare to serve their queen in their last duty.
Those Taranchulum who do decide to make a life outside their home colonies
have likely grown large, thick skinned and over all dangerous enough not to
care what others think of them, indeed some even say that their unusually
strong wills are a reflection of their growing mental powers, just as their
ability to spin their webs into tough, natural armor is a reflection of
their growing physical prowess.

47. chitanids races
Chitanids are the awesome final form of the spiderling race. Nobody is
entirely sure of the process by which a taranchulam transforms, but it's
said to involve a web so intricate, that no species without compound eyes
can follow it, and an expenditure of mental force great enough to shatter
mountains.
Up to 12 feet in length, Chitanids themselves are entirely spiderlike in
form, usually going about on all eight legs, though still able to use their
limbs most dextrously.
Their chitin changes from dull black or brown, to a bright gleaming
material, appearing black or grey in some lights, but shining pearlescent in
others, while the flashes of color about their abdomens glow like gems.
Male chitanids are extremely rare, since usually upon transformation, the
first thing a male does is mate with his colony's queen, who subsequently
devours him.
Though it is said that some males of great fortitude have overcome their
natural impulses, and journeyed the surface world on missions of their own.
Female chitanids might challenge their queen for control of a colony, though
are more likely to simply wait until a male is ready to transform, and so
begin a colony of their own, indeed most chitanids encountered outside of
the home colonies tend to be females looking for prospective mates, or
trying to grow strong enough to challenge the mental powers of their
mothers, especially if a female chitanid's philosophy or outlook differ
markedly from the queen of her colony.
In battle, chitanids' abilities can rival even the strongest of dragons.
Able to use their minds as a weapon, and even use a combination of
transcendental webs and mental force to wield weapons against their foes,
they are opponents not to be under estimated.

48. demons race
Like the term "angel", the term "demon" properly applies to two
distinctly different groups of beings.
Some, called native demons, or infernals, are residents of the infernal
realm itself. Immortal, evil creatures of great power and unknown purpose,
who seek to influence the realm of Erion through their interactions with
mortals.
When mages or necromancers speak of "summoning demons", it is these
creatures they seek to interact with.
The race of demons who inhabit Erion are quite another matter.
Like angels, these are humans who have chosen to accept some form of demonic
transformation offered by the infernal powers in return for some sort of
service.
Taller than average humans, their skin ranging in colour from livid violet
or scarlet, to a glossy reddish or purplish black, their eyes usually burned
orange or gold. Both males and females sport large, bat‑like wings, which
usually remain folded on their backs, and a small set of curving horns
protruding from their foreheads.
Cunning, often cruel, with eyes that see far and deep, and frequently
working in the service of darker powers, it is no surprise that many people
forget such demons were once human.
Yet, just as there are angels who retain their celestial form while falling
into evil, so it is said some who accepted a demonic form nevertheless walk
the path of atonement, attempting to make up with acts of heroism and
kindness for the dark bargain they previously struck.

49. sparks race
The Birth of Sparks
In the battlefield where the infernal and celestial tides clashed and
mingled, a unique phenomenon occurred, the birth of Sparks. These were the
primal energies, remnants of the celestial and infernal clashes, taking on
an elemental life of their own.
Erion possessed a unique quality that set it apart from other worlds; it was
alive with awareness. Nature, the essence of Erion's consciousness, was not
a silent force but a living, thinking entity. It pondered its own
existence, rocked by passions, loves, and furies as it sought to comprehend
itself. As nature's thoughts split between creative and destructive,
eternal and dying, the elements were born.
First, the ever‑changing fire, often destructive but necessary. Then, the
immovable strength of earth, taming the roiling fires. Water followed, a
cooling balm of cloud and rain, and finally, the invisible beauty of air, a
beauty with a hidden sting in its lightning.
Amidst this cosmic struggle, Sparks emerged as the embodiment of the purest
elemental energy. A spark is a small but powerful force, an unformed energy
that yearns to be something more. It is a ball of pure potential, a
swirling mass of possibility waiting to be shaped and molded. A spark is
like a seed, a dormant force that holds within it the potential for growth
and transformation.

50. air elementals race
The air elementals came into existence as a manifestation of the delicate
balance between the infernal and celestial tides. Born from the sparks of
elemental energy, these beings emerged at the meeting point where the
roiling waves of fire and the cooling touch of celestial ether gave birth to
the world of Erion. As nature, the sentient essence of Erion, pondered its
existence and passions split into creative and destructive forces, the
invisible beauty of air found its form. The air elementals appear like
graceful humanoids, embodying the essence of this unseen force. Their
existence mirrored the duality of nature, holding both the calming breeze
and the fury of lightning within their forms.

strength, manifested as humanoid figures of stone and soil. The earth
elementals bore the weight of solidity, symbolizing the grounding force that
tamed the roiling fires beneath.

In the crucible of cosmic forces that forged Erion, the fire elementals

essence of change and destruction, pulsating with the raw power of fire.
The fire elementals, born from the untamed fervor of ever‑changing flames,

carried within them the heat of unbridled power, symbolizing the relentless
force that shaped the world.

53. water elementals race
In the cosmic battlefield that orchestrated the creation of Erion, water
elementals emerged as fluid entities, born from the delicate interplay of
celestial and infernal tides. Rising from the sparks of elemental energy
that defined the world, these beings embodied the essence of soothing waters
and the mysterious depths of the oceans. The water elementals, formed from
the cooling balm of cloud and rain, materialized as humanoid beings, with
flowing hair that streams behind them. They embody the ever‑changing
currents and depths, representing the fluid force that maintains the
equilibrium of the cosmos.
