Many Half-Orcs follow this philosophy, but others have rejected it completely. CE for Orcs, CN for Half Orcs
-Goblins: Goblins and quick of body and mind and can be quite ruthless. They are constantly trying to steal technology or magic from other races. They have a natural tendency to a “pack” mentality, and will often be quite subservient to a more powerful master. This has allowed Goblins to gain employment outside Goblin lands, as bodyguards, sneak thieves and servants. NE

 For the races, I’ve made some changes from the descriptions in the books. For example, elves are not a chaotic race. They value personal freedom, but not at the expense of the whole. I’ve put the average alignment at the end of each description, but people of all alignments can be found among all races.
-Human: Found in many other countries, but have not countries of their own. Some have adapted well to their new homes, others are jaded outsiders. NG

 '''Edits:  My theology is rapidly changing from what I have here.  It will still be Gods with people worshiping Avaters of them, but fleshing out the ideas have changed it somewhat.  Also, the Kenku and Xeph entries are changed to show that they come from the west, not the east.'''

 I haven’t decided how many of the Gods I will reveal out of game but I’m going to use the God of Conflict as an example of how things work.  Some of this may be subject to change, and as always, I really want players input into this.
-Names of Gods and especially Avatars are subject to change, and it can be assumed that each race has different names for the different avatars.
