Human (HYOO-muhn)
The First Humanoid Species of Aonaran
The first humanoid species to exist on Aonaran. Humans evolved from apes around 1.4 million years ago. They are classified as mammals and carry a child to term between 8 to 9 months. They mature between the ages of 16 and 22 and live to be around 75. Just like most other humanoid species, they possess the ability to use magic, however, it is limited. Humans are also the only species to have brought forth empaths, a subclass of humans that can see the past of someone through that person's magic.
Basic Information
Anatomy
Humans have one head with two eyes, two ears, one nose, one mouth and different-coloured hair. Their neck is their hand width long and goes into the shoulders. From each shoulder grows one arm for a total of two arms. The arms end in hands that each have five fingers for a total of ten fingers. The usual length for the arms is with the hand resting comfortably next to the thigh while standing. They have a torso that connects to their shoulders, and below the torso, they have two legs for a total of two lower limbs. Each leg has one knee, followed by a lower leg, and finally, they have feet. The feet possess five toes each, providing stability and balance. The length of their legs is typically in proportion to their upper body, allowing them to walk upright efficiently. Humans have a complex network of muscles and bones throughout their body, enabling them to perform a wide range of movements and activities. Their skin varies in colouration, influenced by regional differences, and they are covered in a layer of hair, with hair colour ranging from various shades, including brown, black, blonde, and red. This variation in hair and skin colouration is a result of their geographical diversity.
Organs collectively ensure the proper functioning and survival of Aonaran's humanoid species. These include one brain, the control centre of the body, responsible for cognition, thought processes, and sensory perception; one heart, the muscular organ that pumps blood throughout the body, providing oxygen and nutrients to cells; two lungs, a pair of organs responsible for oxygenating the blood and removing carbon dioxide through respiration; one liver, a vital organ that performs various functions, including detoxification, metabolism, and the production of digestive enzymes; two kidneys, bean-shaped organs responsible for filtering blood, removing waste products, and regulating fluid balance; one stomach, the organ that aids in digestion by breaking down food with digestive acids and enzymes; one intestinal tract, small and large intestines play a crucial role in absorbing nutrients and water from digested food; one pancreas, an organ that produces digestive enzymes and regulates blood sugar levels by releasing specific hormones; one spleen, involved in filtering blood and supporting the immune system by producing white blood cells; one bladder, a storage organ for urine, which is produced by the kidneys and eventually excreted; one gallbladder, stores and releases bile produced by the liver to aid in digestion; one thyroid gland, that regulates metabolism and energy production by releasing hormones; multiple adrenal glands, that produce hormones that help the body respond to stress and regulate various functions; reproductive organs, in males, two testes produce sperm, while in females, two ovaries produce eggs, both cells vital for reproduction; the skin, serving as a protective barrier and regulating temperature; multiple muscles, responsible for movement and support; multiple bones with the skeletal system that provides structure, protection, and assists in movement; and the blood vessels, a network of arteries, veins, and capillaries that transport blood, oxygen, and nutrients throughout the body.
In addition to the familiar organs found in the humanoid species, Aonaran's humans possess a unique organ known as the "Arcane Reservoir." This specialised organ is designed to store and regulate magical energy. Connected to the Arcane Reservoir is a network of "Magical Veins" that extend throughout the body, branching out to the limbs and head. These Magical Veins serve as conduits for transporting magical energy, allowing humans to harness and channel it for a variety of spells and magical abilities. The Arcane Reservoir and Magical Veins are distinctive to the creatures of Aonaran and play a crucial role in their use of magic, enabling them to tap into the planet's mystical energies for various purposes.

Genetics and Reproduction
The reproductive and genetic characteristics of Aonaran's humans are fundamental to their species, allowing for the continuation of their population and the passing down of traits and abilities through generations.
Reproduction Method:
Humans reproduce sexually, with the union of sperm and egg resulting in offspring. This method involves two biological parents contributing genetic material to create a new individual.
Reproduction Frequency:
Humans have a relatively short reproductive cycle, occurring approximately once every 3 to 5 years. This cycle is primarily synchronized with the transition from the end of the Leaf Season to the Beginning of the Frost Season, strategically timed to ensure their offspring are born during the food-abundant Sun Season months. This frequency aligns with their gestation period of 8 to 9 months and is influenced by their cultural practice of monogamous mating, resulting in the birth of one offspring per reproductive event.
Gestation Method:
Humans are viviparous, meaning they give birth to live offspring. The gestation period for humans lasts approximately 8 to 9 months, during which the developing embryo receives nourishment and protection within the mother's womb.
Genetics:
Humans inherit genetic traits from both of their biological parents. These traits include physical characteristics like eye colour, hair colour, and height, as well as the potential for magical sensitivity and other hereditary features. Genetic diversity among humans is influenced by regional variations and environmental factors.
Parental Care:
After birth, humans typically provide extensive parental care and nurturing for their offspring, including feeding, protection, and education.

Growth Rate & Stages
The growth rate and stages of a developing human on Aonaran follow a specific pattern:
Conception:
The initial stage begins at conception when a sperm cell fertilises an egg cell, forming a zygote. This marks the beginning of an individual's genetic makeup.
Embryonic Stage:
During the first trimester of gestation (approximately the first three months), the developing human is referred to as an embryo. During this stage, the basic body structures and organ systems begin to form.
Fetal Stage:
The second trimester (months 4 to 6) is known as the fetal stage. The embryo becomes a fetus, and its features become more defined. Organs continue to develop, and the fetus starts to exhibit movements.
Late Fetal Stage:
The third trimester (months 7 to 9) is characterized by rapid growth and development. The fetus gains weight, its organs mature, and it prepares for birth.
Birth:
Humans are viviparous, and birth occurs after approximately 8 to 9 months of gestation. The newborn enters the world and begins adapting to its environment.
Infancy:
The early years of life involve infancy, where the individual relies on caregivers for nourishment, protection, and care. Physical and cognitive development progresses rapidly during this stage.
Childhood:
Childhood extends from infancy to adolescence, encompassing several years of growth and development. Children learn to walk, talk, and interact with their environment. Education and socialisation become prominent aspects of this stage.
Adolescence:
Adolescence is a transitional stage marked by the onset of puberty and the development of sexual maturity. Individuals experience physical changes and seek independence and identity formation.
Adulthood:
Adulthood is divided into several phases, including early adulthood, middle adulthood, and late adulthood. It is characterized by increased independence, career development, family formation, and ageing.
Old Age:
In old age, individuals experience physical and cognitive changes associated with ageing. The pace of these changes can vary, but they are a natural part of the life cycle.
End of Life:
Ultimately, humans have an average lifespan of around 75 years. The end of life is a stage marked by a decline in physical and mental faculties, leading to death.

Ecology and Habitats
Humans have adapted to a variety of environments, with their optimal habitat being fertile grasslands and plains. In regions less suitable for human habitation, they may have developed specific skills, knowledge, or technologies to survive or avoid these areas altogether.
The optimal environment for humans is temperate grasslands, fertile plains, and regions with access to water sources. Countries like Kalon, Declan, Soren, Cerridwen, Atreus, Andraste, Piroska, and Miliani offer these conditions. These areas typically have favourable climates, fertile soil for agriculture, and access to freshwater rivers or lakes. Humans in these regions have adapted to a relatively stable and resource-rich environment, which supports their agricultural, social, and cultural activities.
The reasons why humans are not found in the Sorin Desert, Keitha, the Plains of Rohesia and Lilura is simply due to the dominant species in these regions. After their creation, the orcs sealed off the Sorin Desert to avoid other humanoids coming into the desert. Keitha is ruled by the Ylvan and Arañan Shifters, who are in constant conflict with each other, which deterred most other humanoid species from living near them. The Plains of Rohesia are protected by the centaurs, who fiercely protect their valley and will not let any other humanoid species settle in it. Finally, Lilura is a maze of a magical forest that only elves know how to traverse.

Dietary Needs and Habits
Humans exhibit a flexible dietary pattern that adapts to the seasonal availability of food. They are skilled at farming, hunting, and food preservation, ensuring they have sustenance throughout the year.
Rain Season
Diet: During the Rain Season, humans have access to fresh water sources and lush vegetation. They primarily consume a variety of fruits, vegetables, and crops that thrive in wet conditions. Fish and aquatic creatures from rivers and lakes also contribute to their diet.
Hunting/Foraging: Fishing is a common activity during this season, as water bodies are filled with life. Humans also forage for edible plants and berries in the abundant forests.
Storage: Some excess crops and fish are preserved through drying or smoking to ensure a food supply during drier seasons.
Leaf Season
Diet: As the weather cools down and plant life starts to wither, humans rely more on stored foods from the previous season. They consume grains, dried fruits, and preserved vegetables. Meat from animals hunted during the Rain Season, or stored, is also part of their diet.
Hunting/Foraging: Hunting for game animals becomes more common as some species prepare for hibernation. Humans may also gather nuts and mushrooms from the forests.
Storage: Food storage becomes crucial during this season, and humans use techniques like drying, smoking, and curing to keep food supplies intact.
Frost Season
Diet: Frost Season is a challenging time for finding fresh food. Humans mainly rely on preserved foods, grains, and dried meats. Dairy products may also be part of their diet.
Hunting/Foraging: Hunting becomes less frequent, but humans may still venture out to trap or hunt animals that remain active during winter. Foraging for edible plants is limited.
Storage: Most of the food during this season comes from storage, as fresh produce is scarce.
Bloom Season
Diet: With the arrival of warmer weather and blooming plants, humans enjoy a more diverse diet. Fresh fruits, vegetables, and herbs become staples, and they may also consume newly born animals like spring lambs.
Hunting/Foraging: Hunting is less necessary, as fresh plant foods become abundant. Humans focus on gathering wild fruits, vegetables, and herbs.
Storage: Food storage is still utilized, but less intensively, as fresh food is readily available.
Sun Season
Diet: Sun Season is the most abundant time for food. Humans feast on ripe fruits, vegetables, grains, and a variety of meats from animals raised or hunted during the previous seasons. Dairy products and honey are also common.
Hunting/Foraging: Hunting may become more recreational, and humans focus on breeding and raising livestock for meat. Foraging for delicacies like truffles or rare herbs might be a pastime.
Storage: While less storage is required during the Sun Season, humans still preserve some of the harvest for the upcoming Leaf and Frost Seasons.
