Humans

Everyone knows what humans are. Should they even get explained? For completion's sake, we'll say sure. In the world of Rune, humans are your run-of-the-mill, jack-of-all-trades race. Just like every other world, really. They can excel at anything as long as they put their mind to it, and that's probably why they're so common.

While some races might have a specific climate or area of a continent they call home, humans can be found just about anywhere, working just about any profession. From the desert to the arctic, and from baker to grand military general, much can be said for human perseverance.

Naturally, of course, many races will outstrip them in some department or another. They don't have the agility or magic of the therians, the elegance and grace of the elves, or even the strength of the brutish orcs.

It is this reason that the human spirit tends to be nigh-unbreakable compared to many classes. In order to succeed as much as they have against races that are more suited to a given area, humans had to generate impressive willpower. You see, humans are not a species indigenous to the world of Rune. At least, not as far back as anyone can remember.

While the origins of "the weak race" remain a mystery to even the most devoted historian as of yet, there is no doubt that through their strength and fortitude, humans have made a strong presence since their introduction to the world. Perhaps one day the mystery of their appearance will be exposed, if one looks in the right places.
