Current Races

Though the first Eternal Guardians were Human, the power to spread peace throughout the land is not limited to Humanity alone. Zumi Guardians came next, with their clever creativity and ingenuity. As more races immigrated to the Central Continent, the need for Guardians grew. Fate began choosing its peacekeepers from a variety of backgrounds, including Anuran, Ursun, and Halfkin.

Humans

An intelligent race, Humans originated in the Northern Continent and were one of the earliest races to colonize the Central Continent. Their culture tends to be diverse and widespread. They've built many cities, and even countries, though all that remains of their past in the north is a few scattered nomadic tribes.

Zumi

The Zumi are lovers of invention and commerce, with a surprising amount of creativity packed into their petite frames. Having originated from the parched deserts of the southeast, some have theorized that it was this barren existence that opened their minds to the inspirations of the cosmos. They traveled to the Central Continent for its vast trade opportunities. Though they generally mingle peacefully with other races, they regard the Anuran with disdain, considering the frog-people too light-hearted and unappreciated of the scientific arts.

Anuran

The Anuran were shy and somewhat isolated prior to their voyage to the Central Continent. However, their initial contact with other races sparked their curiosity, and they grew to be outgoing and companionable, adapting to the welcoming nature of other races. They became known for their clownish sense of humor, and while Anuran Guardians take their role very seriously, they do so with a silly grin.

Ursun

A closely-knit race from the high mountains, the Ursun regard their impressive history and culture as sacrosanct. Several hundred years ago, all Ursun lived under the rule of a great King, but a struggle for the throne divided the kingdom into two warring factions. The usurper failed, but led his violent followers into the lowlands. Though he is long dead, the community of savage Ursun he founded struggles on to this day.

Halfkin

Ancient legends say the Halfkin were born of a quirky mother who collected--of all things--teeth, and a diminutive red-bearded father whose footprints were all colored like rainbows. In reality, no one knows where the Halfkin came from. All that is known is that they are more playful than a Zumi, more mischevious than an Anuran, more tenacious than a human, and...well, perhaps not MORE powerful than an Ursun, but at least AS powerful. Those who don't take the Halfkin seriously as Guardians are making a mistake--a mistake they'll only make once.
