Humans

Pure versatility and abundance are the true defining traits of the humans of The Evergreen Realms. With the sheer numbers that no other race can match, with perhaps half-elves being a very close second, humans have stepped foot into every walk of life. All shapes, sizes, hair, and skin colour have been accounted for at one time or another in humans. Their personalities seem to be as different as the snow that falls on the highest peaks, and they also seem to change on the whim of the wind or the breaking of the stones. With humans you truly never know what you will get from one age to another, or even from one house to the next.

Biology

With their penchant for migration and conquest, humans are more physically diverse than other common races. There is no typical human. An individual can stand from 5 feet to a little over 6 feet tall and weigh from 125 to 250 pounds. Human skin shades range from nearly black to very pale, and hair colours from black to blond (curly, kinky, or straight males might sport facial hair that is sparse or thick. Most humans have a dash of non-human blood, revealing hints of Dwarf, Halfling, Gnome and in some cases more exotic lineages. Humans reach adulthood in their late teens and rarely live even a single century.
