Human Species in Frigranden | World Anvil

Human

The youngest of the common races, humans are adaptable and intelligent bipedal primate mammals who create long-lasting institutions, cities and blended societies. In Frigranden, humans spread across the land and build a matrix of farmlands, villages and trade routes. Humans rarely interbreed with other species, but children are viable from matings with elves, orcs and some entities from other realms of existence, including celestial. On a rare occasion, a mage might claim draconic lineage, but this has never been verified.

In New Thostenburg humans interbreed much more regularly with half-elf and half-orc inhabitants and few lineages have not interbred. Level 1 and 2 inhabitants find this interbreeding distasteful, but most others accept it as a natural part of life.

Beauty Ideals

Attractive males are strong, symmetrical, and stand out from their neighbors in some way. The man with the shaved head and beard in a region where long hair and a smooth face is the norm will get the most attention from local women. The fisherman with scars from a fight with a sea monster will suddenly find himself surrounded by admirers.

Attractive women are self-assured, with smooth skin, curvey bodies and a sense of humor.

Common Taboos

Cannibalism or eating of other intelligent races, incest, pedophilia, murder, suicide, being in contact with corpses unless preparing the dead for final rest, displaying sexual organs in public, and discussing bodily functions.
