Immortals

Favored race of Solstice. Immortals are one of the oldest races on Dystopia (if not THE oldest race). They are thought to be a myth like the Drow since they went into hiding amidst the population so long ago and are almost impossible to spot. They are human in appearance with pale eyes and during the day with either white or pale blonde hair and at night it is pure black… how does that help?! We don’t know; they’re in hiding after all. Or so people say…

Fae

Favored race of Tasha goddess of Desire – The Fae are naturally magical creatures, regal and beautiful in both mind and stature. They are usually energetic and mirthful, full of passion for life. Although they are also very mischievous so be a bit wary. This is probably why Tasha chose them as her race and the Unseelie court is surely evidence of her influence with the Fae.

Sub-races: Half-Fae

Centaurs

Favored race of Dunbar. Although they possess the inborn strength, speed, and power of a half-equine race the known herds of centaurs are not of the warrior-type.
