Ancestry & Ethnicity

in Player Guide

In the current World of Wizard's Peak, mortals of diverse and unseen ancestry have become more and more common. The residents of the hidden places of the world have come out of their hiding. Denizens of other planes and realities frequently come to take residence at the Kirinal Pit or emigrate to other places in the world of Erathia.

Kirinalos don't bat an eye at anything that appears civilized walking the streets of the Zone. Tolerance of diversity has become more common worldwide, except for some iconoclastic regions that seek to maintain racial purity.
