The Syric Races form the largest population group in Aenodh. They can be divided into six main racial groups; Dwarves, Elves, Gigans, Gnomes, Halflings, and Humans. There are numerous variations where intermarriage between these groups has result in offspring, most notably Half-Elves which have a human parent and an elven one. All of the Syric Races are mutually genetically compatible. The Syric Races are all humanoid and mammalian, with the same approximate proportions, this said they are extremely diverse in both appearance and culture thanks to their wide distribution across the world.
Etymology & Terminology
The Syric Races are named after the Goddess Syr of the Syric Triad, and were among the first mortal races to inhabit Aenodh. The first of the Syric Races to be created were the Gigans, followed by the Elves, both of whom were sculpted by Syr herself. Following this came the Dwarves and Gnomes, sculpted by Oldyr the eldest son of Syr. The Halflings were created by Gydo, Syr's only daughter, and finally came the humans who were created by Kaldis, the youngest of Syr's children. All of the Syric Races were drawn from the same spark of the Well of Creation and were sculpted from the same materials and as such all are members of the Mortal Races of Aenodh.
