==Overview== | |||
[[File:gargoyal.jpg|thumb|250px|right|Grecht]] | |||
Bat-like humanoids, the Grecht hail from an Empire in the distant Dehkay Plateau far to the north of mainland Sapience, although small splinter communities exist elsewhere, such as the village of Arget Massai atop the Siroccian mountains. While Aetolia is still learning about this reclusive race, recent envoys have revealed that the main Empire adheres to a militaristic caste system, overseen by an Exarch. Physically, Grecht tend to feature large ears, angular features and have dark skin, ranging from pure black to greys and browns, with leathery flaps connecting their arms to their bodies, which give them a limited, soaring sort of flight. | |||

==Racial skills== | |||
*Level 1: '''Soaring''' A variation on actual flying, this ability launches a Grecht into a sky version of a room; after a short time he or she then automatically lands back on the ground. | |||
*Level 25: '''Air Stability''' This passive skill stops a Grecht from being blown into another room while flying. | |||
*Level 50: '''Nightsight''' This skill lets a Grecht see during the night, allowing him or her to look into adjacent rooms even when dark. | |||
*Level 75: '''Lunar Regeneration''' This skill passively regenerates a Grecht's health and mana when the moon is in the sky. HELP ASTRONOMY details more about the movements of the moon. | |||
==Roleplay== | |||
The Grecht race is rich with roleplay potential, with an entire plateau claimed as their racial home. A range of backstories and character types can be pinned to these origins - from warriors to priests to rebels to hunters, nearly all character concepts can fit well with the Grecht race. The physical details, such as the ability to soar, open the door to fun physical roleplay ideas and give players lots of ambient emote potential. | |||
