Human
The most common race of the Khemitian Kingdom. It was a human who sacrificed himself in creating the gods and defeating the Ogdoad "the Eightfold". It was the humans whom the gods relinquished their throne to in their exodus.
An interesting twist compared to Hyborian mythos. Humans were created out of nothing; before the Estiri and before the Ptahmenu. Even before the old gods. They lived in kingdom of darkness and fear, ruled by the Ogdoad. The humans were nothing more than beasts to the Ogdoad, to feast on their fear. That is until Montu rose from the caves and wasn't afraid. Montu sacrificed himself in challenging Amun and his Ka merged with Amun to become Amun-Re -the King of Gods. With that event, the sun began to rise and the Ogdoad were no more.
Their own importance to Libynos has been lost over the Millenia, remembered only by the gods themselves. Today's Khemit is a veritable rainbow of human heritage; from the Hyborians with lighter skin, blonde hair, and blue eyes, to the Khemitian olive skin, and the Desert Kingdoms in between.
As mixed as the human population is, their clothing is equally diverse with the region and how far up the river you live.
The kingdom's culture has harmongenized to that of primarily Khemitian with a substitution of Gods and adoption of Hyborian technology. Khemitian has a few geographical cultural areas. Their language has settled into Common Khemitian, with Upper, Middle, Lower, and Deshret along with four major ethnicities of Khemitian Nomads each with their own dialect and/or accents : Hamanite, Saadi, Baji, Blemmyes
