Mythic Races

Mythic Races

Mythic races exist alongside the mortal world, but are not shaped by it in the same way. Their origins are tied to ancient forces, primordial pacts, or aspects of the world itself rather than lineage alone. Many predate recorded history, and their numbers do not follow mortal patterns of growth or decline.

These races are often bound to specific environments, concepts, or roles. Some are rooted to forests, deserts, seas, or elemental forces. Others drift between places, appearing only when conditions allow or obligations demand it.

Mythic races are neither divine nor abstract. They can be spoken to, bargained with, and sometimes harmed. Yet they do not belong fully to mortal society. Their presence is rare, deliberate, and often significant.

Where mortal races shape the world through ambition and survival, mythic races endure by remaining in balance with forces older than memory.
