Human (Hew-Man)
"Humans? Humans are good company. Shame about the lifespan, though. As soon as I get to know one, pow, he died. Course, they tend to have kids, and those kids have kids, and eventually, your seen as the grandpa that knew their great-grandpa. That's how you know you've made a friend with a human."
Darrek Axe-Beard, Dwarven Kuldjargh.
"It's so... odd. Humans are short lived, and for the most part, humans don't care about what happens. And yet, they have such a drive to be able to fight dragons, slay liches, and even kill gods. Some are magic masters, and others couldn't tell the difference between a Firebolt and a Mage Hand. I've seen the most Beautiful elegance of clashing swords from two different humans, and I've seen what could only be described as wild flailings from trained guards. They just aren't consistant."
Alaradri Holotroul, Elven Gloomstalker.
"Humans are a lot like us, really. At least some of them are. Step out of the castles and keeps, go talk to the farmers and herders and you’ll find good, solid folk. Not that there’s anything wrong with the barons and soldiers—you have to admire their conviction. And by protecting their own lands, they protect us as well."
Cade Cassiman, Halfling Bard of Valor
"'Umiez are so strange. Dey walk all fancy an' talk all fancy, like 'im knife-ears, but dey also act like squats some uv 'da times. An' when dey ain't act'n like any uv im, dey act like 'da bloody smallfolk. But some 'umiez are gud, 'cos dey act like orcs. I met dis wun 'umie, 'iz name was uhhh, gordon i fink, an' i rememba dis wun time 'e arm wrestled dis ogre, an' 'e fuck'n won. Rioght, ma point iz, 'umiez are gud when dey act like an orc."
Mork, Orc Druid of the moon

History
In the beginning of time, there was no prime material plane. Instead, there was a plane of existence dark and cold, with a race referred to as the Primordial Man. These men would eat eachother and anything they found. These Primordial Men could see the universe go through everything, from the Dragon War, to the war on Primordials and Gods. Eventually, the gods would come to this plane of existence, and give it life. They would change the Primordial men in to Humans, while others would run below ground, becoming the Quaggoth. Officially, in 30wr, the Human race was officially created. There where 4 Human Ethnicities created, The Bowleg, The Soothra, the Khenra, and the Simic. Of those 4, 2 managed to stay human, while the Khenra became a Jackal-folk creature, and the Simic became a type of mutated Human. During the Calamity event, humans where the most effected, due to their number.
The Bowleg humans where made on 2 different continent: Godsen, and Mouvileu. The Bowlegs where created on pre-created towns and cities, though all of these settlements have been lost to time. The Soothra where created on Godsen and Ovak. The Soothra had managed to create a massive empire in Ovak.
