Players of [[Aetolia]] may select one of 13 races to play as. Much as humans in real life come from all manner of places and backgrounds, these races comprise a diverse and flexible series of personalities, origins, and traits, allowing players to create a character that is exactly right for them. | Players of [[Aetolia]] may select one of 13 races to play as.

'''Note:''' Tekal does not appear to be limited to the races of Sapience or even player characters, as the [[Nazedha]] Emperor [[Baelak Shipbreaker]] was able to become one, though he never progressed past that. | |||

'' | The beings who call [[Albedos]] home are as varied as those of their brother country of [[Sapience]]. With a considerably larger landmass, nature has had ample time and resources to sculpt these beings with far greater diversity. | ||

! [[Ursal]] || [[Caentoi]] | |||
|- | |||
| Ursine humanoids covered in light, shaggy fur; natives of the colder environs of [[Albedos]]. | |||
| With canine muzzles and bristly fur, the Caentoi resemble man-sized and -shaped terriers. This hedonistic race tends to dominate the merchantry of the [[continent]]. | |||
|- | |||
! [[Utari]] || [[Golba]] | |||
|- | |||
| Ritually tattooed amphibious beings who inhabit the [[Albedi]] waters, worshipping the ocean as its own [[deity]]. | |||
| Massive, avaristic and rocklike, the Golba are amongst the biggest of the [[Albedi]] natives. In their older age, they tend to calcify, their body solidifying like stone. | |||
|- | |||
! [[Tarpen]] || [[Praexi]] | |||
|- | |||
| Small, built in a similar vein to marsupials, the Tarpen mirror [[Kelki]] in their love of tinkering, yearning to take things apart to see how they might be better fit together. No matter how new their clothing is, their top hats are ''always'' crooked. | |||
| Extremely small, implike creatures with draconic features. They range from the crocodilian to the humanlike, with long ears and heavily textured bodies. A disreputable species, scorned by much of the peoples of [[Albedos]]. | |||
|- | |||
! [[Aslinn]] || [[Vierkathi]] | |||
|- | |||
| Collaborating with the [[Dreikathi]], the Aslinn are a fearsome race, ghoullike and ugly. | |||
| Close cousins of the [[Dreikathi]]; agile humanoids with beautiful, streamlined bodies and deadly quills. | |||
|- | |||
! colspan=2 | [[Dreikathi]] | |||
|- | |||
| colspan=2 | The undisputed master race of [[Albedos]]: a race of beautiful humans, tall, sculpted, and reminiscent of dragons. They rule the entirety of the continent with an iron fist. | |||
