Dawnwrithian Humans

The humans on the continent of Dawnwrithe stereotypically follow suite along with many of the traditions and appeal of the Dawnwrithian culture; being thick skinned, covered with hair and somewhat brutish. They get this nature from living hand-in-hand with the Dwarven culture which dominates the continent, as well as the bleak and treacherous nature of the icy landscape they live on. Despite this, it is important to note that human variety still remains a key component to their existence, and many different castes of humanity exist on Dawnwrithe.

Compared to other forms of humanity, the Dawnwrithian breed is probably one of the most specialized, lending itself to existence on the icy plains or wintery evergreen forests. Dawnwrithian humans tend to live longer than most other breeds of humanity; living on average to the age of 120 years rather than the normal lifespan of 70 years. They also have literally thicker skin and a larger muscle output, even in females, which can aid in keeping warm during the winter periods. The expected changes, such as faster hair growth and increase resilience to cold are also present. These changes are believed not only to be evolutionary, but also owing to their close alliances with the Dwarves, which has naturally changed their biology through long lines of interbreeding.
