Below is a list of all 12 Racial groups, and each subrace within them.


Humans

The most populous race in the galaxy, and the most compatible with all other races. Humans are smart, stalwart, and adaptable. While there may be some difference in their racial makeup, they all follow the same basic structure.

Zodiac symbol:

Subraces:

Bishoura: A race of extremely attractive if somewhat gullible humans, with the ability to enhance the appearance of anything they hold.

Uruseiyans: Humans with slight animal features such as fangs, pointed ears, and/or tails, with advanced technology that they use to impersonate deities on other planets.

Nilremin: Humans who, through a technological accident involving genetics, are sterile and age backwards slowly.

Chibi: Diminutive humans with impossibly cute features and a near-immunity to most forms of intimidation.

Amazon: Less advanced humans with increased physical abilities run by a matriarchy.

Forman: Advanced humans for whom purchasing slight genetic alterations has become so commonplace that it's become a natural ability for them.

Empyrean: Humans born with the natural ability to cast a single spell and a predilection towards useful spells of a single element.

Paragon: Exceptional meta-humans with incredible powers and debilitating weaknesses.

Demi-Humans

Created using the DNA of the long-lost Kasumi, these animalistic people were created in a lab, for labor of any with the means to purchase them. After securing their reproductive freedom, they began a campaign to free themselves from their oppressors. Come in Domestic variety, where they appear mostly human, but with animal features such as ears and tails, and Martial variety, where they appear to be completely anthropomorphic animals.

Redeemed

A collection of races that would be considered "Evil" in the same literature as Mythic. Oftentimes discriminated against by Mythics, they've cast off their previous name as "Sub-Mythic" and considered their hands washed of the pasts that gained them such a reputation, going by Redeemed nowadays.
