Races

Overview
The races of Akfas are many and varied, united by little but the hostile world around them. All major sentient races are bipedal mammals with varying degrees of sexual dimorphism. Each have different lifespans and ancestral lands, and are divided into different tribes, nations, and states.

Racial differences
Complexions are generalizations; most races have intense variation within their range
 * There are four types of ears: round, point, wide, and long
 * Eye and hair colors are listed roughly in order of commonality
 * Longer-lived races mature more slowly; all are fertile by 14% of their lifespan and are typically considered adults by 20%.

Interbreeding and Hybrids
Subraces are capable of having children with any subrace of the same race, and their children possess a combination of features from both their parents. Elven and halfling half-breeds have a tendency to take after their mothers, while humans combine evenly.

Part-men (half-orcs, half-elves, halflings, aasimar, tieflings, genasi) can only produce children with full humans or other half-breeds; the offspring of these unions appear fully human but may carry the ancestry or powers of their nonhuman parent in their blood for generations to come.
