Human
Basic Information
Genetics and Reproduction
Humans are incompatible with vaen biology. Romance between the two species isn’t unheard of and is largely encouraged as these couples provide a useful function. Children are often left parentless by wyvern attacks, storms, work fatalities, birthing problems that kill the mother, and untimely death due to illness. Murder and suicide play some part in this, yet it’s not as common. Vaen-human couples tend to adopt these parentless ones since they clearly cannot have their own children. These homes have at least one adopted child and often at least one of each species.
Dietary Needs and Habits
Humans on Alastea
The omnivorous humans couldn’t possibly be more different from the vegetarian vaen. They celebrate the Festival of Tem’leyshu with a zeal that often distresses their neighbors. The enthusiasm is tolerated, though, as the Vaen don’t celebrate the hunt aspect of the Festival. This ensures that Tem’leyshu is properly honored.
Due to the nature of their diet, the humans often produce more leather than they can use, so they sell the excess to the vaen for various uses. A lot of vaen dislike leather due to its origin, but it makes a superior saddle.
They dislike drinking water, choosing instead to drink milk, beer, wine, or unfermented fruit juice, though mostly children drink that.

Common Dress Code
Trousers, boots, skirts, hats, scarves, layered skirts, dresses, tunics, and slippers are quite common. Some Alastean humans like to mimic Vaen clothing, even though it’s discouraged. They dye their clothing any color they please, inventing new ones by mixing dyes, sometimes creating colors you wouldn’t find in nature.
