Hum'Dova
-"Strength. Will-power. MIGHT. These are the defining traits of any Hum'Dova. Though their stature is often that of an over-sized human, their veins pulse with dragon's blood, their skin naturally resistant to most scraps/bumps, and their bones are as tough as iron. This race is usually looked down on and shunned due to their origins, but to the few that make it in this world, fighting in The Pits and other various arenas are where they prosper." -Race Description from The World of Idoria TTRPG
-The name "hum'dova" is a bastardization of the race's true name "Huu'mdrovi", meaning "might through power", which was given to them by the elves (Elf) for their humanoid-shape & draconic lineage.
-The hum'dova descend from dragons, mighty beasts that hoard wealth and power and can decimate entire landscapes single handedly. Although their origin is otherwise lost to the sands of time, they still retain many of their draconic characteristics such as: scales, a dragon-like head complete with draconic eyes and teeth, a tail, mighty strength, and sometimes even wings! Although any who possess wings struggle to fly, glide, or hover due to the hum'dova's weight.
-Historically, they've always been a warmongering race; causing battles and wars over the smallest of issues. Their mighty strength bringing along with them an incredibly short temper.
-They've been known to worship Ver'na, which, combined with being direct descendants of dragons, has made the hatred towards them a constantly-burning one.
-The hum'dova are not inherently a magical race, despite their lineage, though it proves curious that they seem to eminate magical energy as they slash their way through their opponents in battle.
