Humans

History
Humans' native planet is Kepler. There they live in a futuristic earth in which technology has advanced a great deal.

Human overpopulation began being a problem in Kepler, so they sent an arc to Somnia during the Dimming, a phenomenon that takes place every 500 years, to explore the planet and observe if it was suitable for human life.

When the human arc was sent, a hostile encounter was not the first thing they had in mind, though they carried basic weaponry, the arc was full of scientists and Kepler technology.

The expedition was a failure and the arc got deviated from Somnia. It ended up crashing in Arcadia, continent of Astrae.

The survivors settled a base in the wreckage of the ship and tried their best to survive against the harsh climate of Arcadia.

Canid anbypeds were the first astraeans to discover humans, and the first contact went surprisingly well, though language barrier was a clear difficulty. Anbypeds learned about Kepler technology and humans learned the Astrae's language, they were later introduced to witchcraft and magic by canids for the first time.

Canids decided to join the human settlement and aided the new species in their survival against the harsh climate and flora of Arcadia.

Humans' fascination with raw power of mana and the many uses of witchcraft was enormous. However, humans were unable to have offspring with canids, thus, they began experimenting with witchcraft in order for their descendants to have this skill.

They created another type of skill, sorcery, and were highly pleased to observe the first human sorcerer child bend magic at their will without the need of mana.

Some cases of a sickness started taking place all throughout the settlement. They came to the obvious conclusion that the unknown microorganisms and bacteria of Arcadia where the ones at fault.They isolated the cases and began investigating this sickness.

The sickness was named corruption, because it seemed to decay those who had it.

Humans discovered that sorcerers had short life spans, they also found out that the source of corruption where sorcerers in their last stages of life. So, when a sorcerer was about to enter the last stage of corruption and begin spreading the sickness they were banished from the settlement.

Hundreds of years went by, human population kept growing and expanding all throughout Arcadia.

The first drakonian expedition was sent to Arcadia. Word was spread of a new species, the expedition purposes were exploring the new continent and executing a succesful first contact.

Humans' first contact with drakonians didn't go as well as with anbypeds. Drakonians highly value witchcraft, and although few of them found fascinating the concept of sorcery and its apparent lack of a power supply, many of the fanatics in the expedition convinced its majority of the blasphemy against Umbra this new aberration represented.

Drakonian fanatics began eradicating human sorcerers. This spark of hate lighted a war against drakonians from humans.

Characteristics
Humans are anatomically divided among men and women.

Human sorcerers don't exceed the age of 40.

Humans can have offspring with drakonians.

Humans can't have offspring with anbypeds.

Magic
Witchcraft in humans is impossible.

Although it seems human sorcerers don't need a power supply, this happens because sorcery feeds from the soul of its host decaying them and furthermore making them have shorter life spans.

Society
In Kepler, humans live in different countries each with its own customs and cultures.

The humans that survived the crash of the arc in Arcadia salvaged what they could from the wreckage and stablished a settlement in the remains of the ship.

The harsh and unstable climate of Arcadia made it difficult for humans to grow crops or survive the sudden drops and highs in temperatures. Thanks to the contact with a large group of canids near the crash, humans learnt from them which type of crops where the best to grow during each season and how to foresee the sudden changes in Arcadia's climate.

The large group of canids joined the human settlement and 2 foreseers were declared. A human one and a canid one, to increase the rates of survivals among both groups.

In the ages to come, human population began spreading all throughout Arcadia.
