Sapients

World Map

Sapients is the term used for all intelligent species that inhabit Kastorix. The total population of sapients is estimated to be around 250 million, scattered across the three continents, countless islands, and deep subterranean realms, among 9 species. Before The Breach which consumed most of the northern continent of Avijor, this number was far higher. Historically, the term "humanoid" was used to classify sapient species, but with the decline of human dominance, this term has fallen out of favor. Today, "sapient" is the preferred term, which broadens the definition to include species such as dragons and coatls, who were previously not categorized as humanoids.

Humanoids

(Playable Species)

Nagas

Population: 56 Million
Nagas are a serpentine people with scaled skin, a snake-like lower body, clawed arms, and humanoid heads. Most nagas live in the tropical regions of Meibor, where they excel in wizardry, mining, and masonry. They were only indirectly affected by The Breach, as most of their population resides far from the event's impact.

Nagas

Yirte

Population: 42 Million
Yirte are small, humanoid sapients with furred skin and features that resemble ferrets. Traditionally living in harmony with nature, yirte reside in generational cities built from natural materials. Recently, many yirte have ventured out of these closed-off communities, adapting to new ways of life.

Yirte

Gnomes

Population: 37 Million
Gnomes are diminutive in size, even smaller than the yirte, and have a strong connection to magic and artifice. These long-lived sapients often pick up magical traits from their surroundings. Gnomes tend to avoid physical labor, relying instead on magic, golems, or hired workers to accomplish tasks.

Gnomes

Vesper

Population: 35 Million
The Vesper are a short lived bat-like species, typically living underground in the vast network known as The Caverns Below. Their society is divided between two major powers: the Emerald Empire and the Crimson Spire, which vie for control of the underworld. Most Vesper prefer the subterranean lifestyle but are formidable both above and below ground.

Vesper

Humans

Population: 29 Million
Once the most populous species on Kastorix, humans lived primarily on the northern continent of Avijor before it was devastated by The Breach. Known for their adaptability and persistence, humans are skilled at surviving in diverse environments and excel in a variety of tasks, though their numbers have dwindled significantly.

Human

Dragonkin

Population: 22 Million

Dragonkin

Aruna

Population: 18 Million
The aruna are avian sapients who inhabit the The Shattered Isles, an isolated archipelago. Due to the fierce region of storms known as the Galeward near the islands, the Aruna have remained relatively disconnected from the rest of Kastorix. Their wing-arms allow them to glide on wind currents, and they are excellent swimmers.

Aruna

Trolls

Population: 7 Million
Trolls are a highly diverse species known for their resilience and regenerative abilities. They thrive in small communities and generally avoid large cities and crowds. Trolls are adaptive and often settle in remote or challenging environments.

Trolls

Brannur

Population: 5 Million
The brannur are a powerful species with green or gray skin, red eyes, and a single horn on their forehead. They were once known as the greatest mercenaries in Kastorix, but many died in The Breach. Today, the surviving Brannur are searching for a new purpose, as their traditional martial skills become less relevant in the current age.

Shyvarjarna

Population: 30 000
Shyvarjarna are species of intelligent large spider-like creatures that live in sedentary undergound colonies called webs. Shyvarjarna can be over 3 meters tall and are strong and agile, however their inability to cast spells limit their power.

Dragons

Population: 9143 (Official Data by The Draconium)
Dragons are the largest and most powerful of all sapient species on Kastorix, standing between 4 to 7 meters tall. They are immensely strong both magically and physically and wield considerable influence in the Draconium and abroad Although their numbers are small, dragons have always been a force to be reckoned with.

Coatls

Population: Unknown, estimated to be around 600
Coatls are reclusive, feathered serpentine creatures with great intelligence and wisdom. Though solitary, they are immensely powerful spellcasters, and their homes are often located in places of magical significance. Their true numbers are unknown, but they are considered one of the rarest sapient species in Kastorix.

Elves

Population: 0 (Believed extinct)
Elves are widely believed to have perished during The Breach, their once-remote communities disappearing into the void. Known for their expertise in wards, astronomy, and archery, elves were isolationist in nature, making it difficult to determine if any of their groves survive. However, rumors persist of isolated elven communities that may still endure in far north regions of the world.
