Two New Races + 9 New Types of Demons Added to the Wiki!
Been a while again, huh, so here’s a nice update package!
I added two new humanoid races to the mortal plane (where the humans live). Both are naturally fully fleshed out with their own appearances, characteristics, culture etc, which you can find on their wiki pages.
As well as the two new races, we also have a whopping nine new demon species that live “in harmony” in Etheria. Stay tuned for book two and three to see those guys in action (as long as I finish the first one first, heh).
Two new races
First, we have the reclusive, urban-legend-producing Nautians, fully aquatic humanoids with blue skin and yellow eyes, not to be confused with the Navi from Avatar, these guys can’t breathe air! They live in symbiosis with the rest of the aquatic fauna, such as sharks, whales, etc. These guys have a natural ability to use water magic to propel themselves throughout the ocean. In terms of their culture, they worship the great blue Ancient Dragon of the South.
Next, we have the Insectoids, genetically engineered half-human, half-butterflies, created using the Stone of Creation in ancient times as a way to punish criminals. Somehow, this race of insect-like people were able to reproduce (albeit by laying eggs), and survive multiple millennia!
- Nautian
- Entirely aquatic, reclusive humanoids with blue skin and glowing yellow eyes, characterized by water magic affinity and symbiosis with marine fauna.
- Insectoid
- Genetically engineered half-human, half-butterfly hybrid species with a social structure centered around individuals’ wing-size and ultraviolet color appeal.
Demons of Etheria
As there are so many new demons added, ranging from four-meter-tall walking battering rams to flying gremlins the size of a housecat, and each with varying degrees of sentience and cognition (from animals to smart human-like demons), I decided to have semi short descriptions for each of them instead of a longer rundown.
Click on a name below to get to their wiki page!
- Fledgeling
- Something in between a housecat and a dragon, with the attitude of a chihuahua. Fledgelings have wings, sharp claws, and a keen eyesight, all tools they use when hunting smaller prey.
- Boneborn
- Ratling
- Small, highly agile, rat-like demons with keen olfactory senses and a natural knack for stealth; they serve as the assassins and scouts of Etheria.
- Barkskin
- Demons composed entirely out of animated wood. They are highly resistant to slashing and crushing damage, but vulnerable to fire, and of course axes… Soaking these guys in water makes them harder to burn.
- Arachnoid
- Spiderlike humanoid demons. Their six extra appendages (arms) stemming from their back enable them to climb walls or wield multiple weapons with great speed and ferocity.
- Minotaurid
- 3-metre-tall, heavily muscled, bull-like demons with a culture emphasizing the survival of the fittest through tests of physical combat.
- Chaos Golem
- Towering constructs of obsidian or magnetite, created to be tanky, living battering rams. Chaos Golems are capable of knocking down even most stone walls, and are nearly impervious to slashing, piercing, and magical damage. They can however be shattered with sufficient force.
- Spectral
- Rare, Pseudo-physical shadowy beings; half shadow, half matter. They’re the fastest of the demons, able to match even Captains and Commanders in terms of speed. On top of that, spectrals are capable of phasing through objects (e.g., incoming swords and arrows).
- Culan
- Rare, horned and single-eyed demons specifically made to have a high magical potential (mana), allowing them to wield potent magic. Unlike humans, they are not limited to a single element by their magilite plexus.
