These are troubled times friend... The Elves of the north prepare for warfare as we speak. The Dwarves of the Ankhor Mountains forge their devastating maces. The Humans rally their troops for slaughter. We once lived in peace, we Elves, Humans and Dwarves. Alas, this peace and prosperity was not to survive. After the death of the Elven King Aeleaus, the races began to bicker about whom should rule over lush Celandine. The Humans argued that the elves had been in power too long, and this was not equal, while the Dwarves condescended on the Humans saying there short lifespans had made them foolish, and that they should be the ones in power. The Elves equally disliked both of these ideas. The Humans do not live long enough to rule a kingdom, and the Dwarves are too gruff! We Elves have been in power for thousands of years they reasoned. Thus, a power struggle for rule over Celandine began to develop. As skirmishes turned into battles, and battles into wars, the Elves withdrew themselves into the Silverwood Forests of Northern Celandine. The Dwarves receded into their ancestral homes inside the Ankhor Mountains. The Humans have fled to their city of Erandor, and with the lurking presence of the neighboring country of Teran this conflict must be resolved quickly. Whose side will you choose?

(Need more Humans and Dwarves.)

Step 1: Choose your race

Elves: Elves are by most standards the aristocracy of Celandine. They have built spectacular cities in the Silverwood Forests. Elves usually have lifespans of 500-800 years. Due to this prolonged lifespan the Elven race has created some of the finest philosphers, poets, and musicians ever seen in Celandine. Elves are virtually immortal, though they can still be slain by wounds of the flesh. However this prolonged lifespan also decreases the Elve's need to reproduce as rapidly as humans and dwarves do. An Elven woman may have only one or two children in her whole life. Children are often revered due to this rarity, and also because the Elves consider them to be the future of their race. Elves are often called the Fair Folk, they practice ancient magic that can be used to alter the looks of one's self to better fit their personality. The Elven Pariah (Pariah means abilities with magic) is far more advanced than that of the human and dwarves. Elves are superb archers, they say a 20 year old elf (Which is quite young for an elf) can shoot the wing of a fly a hundred yards away. They are an intellectual people who are very proud of their rich heritage.

Dwarves: Dwarves are what some people would call the backbone of Celandine. They are a hardy people who are fierce warriors and proud politicians. They have an average lifespan of 200-400 years. Unlike their Elven cousins dwarves reproduce almost as quickly as humans do. With this manpower they have erected some of the most breath taking monuments in all of Celandine. They live in large subterranean cities that are made with the finest craftsmanship and stone working ever seen in the history of the Celandine. Dwarves are capable of magic, though it is not very mainstream in Dwarven society. Dwarven weapons and armor are of the finest make in Celandine. Many people say that a Dwarven blacksmith at work could bring tears to the eyes of even the most iron man. Dwarves are fierce, amazing warriors. As the common Dwarf saying goes "I may be short, but its only so I may chop up your manhood."

Humans: Humans are the most numerous race in all of Celandine. They are a humble race, but one through supreme numbers, hard work, and dedication have come to be respected by Elves and Dwarves alike. Long ago Elves and Dwarves kept the humans as slaves but not since the Connous Rebellion. The Elven City of Connous was destroyed as Human slaves broke free of the chains that once impaired them. After most Elves had fled or been slaughtered the Humans built their grand city of Erandor in its place as a monument to the plight they had to overcome to gain their freedom. After a few more battles the three races decided to sign the Erandor Concordat. The Elven Queen Dalisina, and The Dwarven King Nargen had therefore sworn that Humans would never be enslaved by them or their predecessors ever again. Humans have an average lifespan of 60-110 years. Humans can be slain by illness and disease more easily than the other races. They reproduce very quickly though. A Human woman may have up to 12 children by her 50th year. Humans relied upon this evolutionary advantage to gain respect through sheer numbers. They have proved invaluable as light infantry, and exceptional archers.
