Boring by the standards of our changed world, humans have managed to overcome their “ordinary” status to rise in power alongside the newly born races. While they may not be as fire-resistant as the Dvergr or as swift as the Cait Sith, they have managed to survive and prosper even in the most difficult of times. The powerful leader of the Arthurians is, after all, human. One could argue that the humans of this Realm are more powerful than the humans of our world, yet human they remain.
This race of altered humans are proud to serve as “shock troops” for Arthur, whenever and wherever the need arises. Their culture is largely devoid of humor; they are way too serious for most other Arthurians. They are fearless in battle and are particularly resistant to any spells or abilities that seek to alter their minds. Sacrifice is nothing to them.They will readily lay down their lives for their beloved leader and Realm. Storm Riders embody the phrase, “The needs of the many outweigh the needs of the few or the one”.
While nobody would ever confuse these creature with the cats of our world, they do in fact share a common ancestry. The Veilstorms not only increased their intelligence, they also made the Cait Sith far more powerful then their generally lithe bodies might indicate. They are also blessed with incredibly good memories; making them adept historians. Cait Sith are fiercely unforgiving to those that seek to harm them or their kin. They distrust most of the other races, even humans, yet Arthur holds a special place in their hearts. Any Cait Sith would happily lay down its life for Arthur and those dear to him.
These former stone guardians of places eternal have come to life with a vengeance! Their stone-infused skin makes them more resistant to damage but their unusual skin tends to heal more slowly. There are apocryphal tales about how Gargoyles can be shattered by sound, which may explain their intense desire to understand how sound and music operate in this world.
The St’rm are one of the most enigmatic races of all in Camelot Unchained. Their origins are clouded in rumor and obfuscation but it is prophesied that one day their Becoming tale will be known to all. Their race is organized along matriarchal lines and there are significant gender-based differences. St’rm are elegant and graceful, though not vain, weak or shallow. Their elegance is not limited to their garments, it is in their very steps; to battle is to dance. They believe they have been placed in this world to be champions, and that nothing need stop them from looking good at the same time.
