Basic Information
Anatomy
Humans are the predominant humanoid species of the world. Ranging in size, stature and physique from gnome-like to almost giant-sized, Humans have the greatest diversity in form of all the humanoid races.
Biological Traits
On average Humans live to about 110 years. They are reproductive for about the first half of that span.
Genetics and Reproduction
Humans, like all humanoid races, reproduce sexually. Maturity is gained at 16 years, and the reproductive cycle typically ends around 60 years.
Growth Rate & Stages
A Human reaches physical maturity at 16, and can expect to live for around 90 years.
Ecology and Habitats
Humans have the ability to live in almost any environment were there is air to breath and water to drink. Temperatures in excess of 120 degrees can be managed, as well as temperatures as low as -75 degrees (given adequate clothing or shelter).

Like all humanoids, Humans are omnivores and can eat both vegetables and animals.
