Ahh, one of the most intriguing features of the Utopian world is the diverse creatures that inhabit its lands. While many creatures live amongst the woods and seas of the world, only a few live in societies, in communities which you can lead. Here is an overview of the many peoples which you will encounter. If you have not already done so, you will also choose one of these fine races to lead when you create your own Province.
The Races of Utopia
Humans The most scholarly and noble of the races, Humans have always taken the greatest interest in learning about their world, and developing better tools and machines to make life easier. Alas, they are often considered a greedy and selfish bunch, but humans do know how to make money extremely well.
Elves An intelligent group of individuals, Elves have always been known for their magical abilities combined with strong of military skills. Their love of nature gives them an instinct for survival, and excellent knowledge of how to use the tools available to them.
Dwarves Dwarves are a friendly but powerful race of individuals. Efficient at everything they do, the dwarf race is known for their disproportionate strength unmatched by most other races. Unfortunately, that strength and efficiency is matched by a love of eating.
Orcs The most evil of the races, Orcs are cruel, selfish, and arrogant. Lovers of destruction and chaos, they are the most ferocious warriors on the planet. Because of their nature, they require little individual space and can grow quite quickly. Unfortunately, their weak abilities in the arts of Magic and Thievery leave much to be desired.
Faeries A race of creatures unbeknownst to many, the Faeries excel at magic and subterfuge, but are often known as the most peaceful of the Utopian races. These creatures are considered fragile but noble, and much about these tiny forest dwellers remains a mystery.
Halflings A race resembling tiny humans, Halflings are famous for their quickness and looting skills. Their small stature makes them weak warriors, but also creates many unique advantages.
Avians A mix of bird and man, Avians have the unique ability to fly. Their natural wildnerness lifestyle makes them efficient and powerful warriors, but their mating and nesting habits can slow their rate of growth.
Undead The Undead are an unnatural species with amazingly unique abilities. Unfortunately, their nature makes it difficult to understand the arts of science, possibly preventing them from true greatness.
