After deciding that contrary to initial opinion the Ogres are yet another failure, the Xylian Dominion launches its final attempt on geneengineering a specie of slaves.
Xylian society slowly devolved over time, with more and more Xylians not wishing to work, and with more and more jobs done by machines. However, there was a moment in their history when their still primitive machines could no longer be expanded in terms of usage.
The first attempt on using magic to recreate a captured humans into decent workers ended with creation of dwarfs. While resilient and strong, the side effect of modifications they underwent was their small stature, caused by a mistake in a process.
It took several centuries for the extremely stagnant Xylians to decide that they already learned enough about genetics to undertake another attempt. This time the effect were first ggres - strong, resillient and capable of breeding quickly to replenish losses. However their intelectual simplicity meant that they felt no real attachment to Xylians as a whole, deserting after their owner/commander died.
The third attempt was supposed to be devoid of all earlier defects and roughly based on ogres. After first prototypes of elves were thoroughly tested and deemed satisfying, more and more variants of them were created to suit particular requirements, with their number finally stabilizing at 40.
