Humans

Humans are one of the Metatypes in Abinor that are playable. The Human Metatype is defined as any Metahuman descended from the creations of Persephone, and has a large number of diverse Metavariants. Humans are the most common Metatype across Abinor, with them alone making up 1/4 of all Metahumans, though Elves are not far behind.

History
Humans were created by Persephone in Abinor, and initially were not magically inclined, leading to a diverse range of different Metavariants that didn't have their defining magical traits. This is why older documents tend to call them "ethnicities" or "races". Human Metavariants regained their magical abilities and attunement to Magicka after the Year Of The Comet, and have the widest range of Metavariants of any Metatype.

Trivia

 * Humans were the initial inspiration for the concept of Metavariants, as Alis didn't like the fact that D&D contained a lot of different Humans inspired by real-world cultures, but not really being differentiated by anything except appearance and culture, and yet still being treated like "subspecies". The idea to grant them special abilities based on their cultural beliefs and mythology the same way different types of other Metahumans had was chosen so as to make Humans feel less arbitrarily defined as opposed to other Metahumans.
