Character Description
Many Abyssborn individuals have skin and eyes tinted
with the color of the Abyss. Perhaps due to this factor, many
of them appear to possess a slightly higher intelligence level
than humans.
Abyssborn can fulfill almost any role and potentially
master any class or Combat Feat. Due to their high level of
all abilities, they naturally gravitate towards becoming magic
warriors. Among their racial abilities, [Abyssal Bastard] is a
rare type that can be chosen from three options. It can be
useful to enhance their strengths or compensate for
weaknesses.
However, it's important to note that the Abyss Curse can
affect some of these features. Certain curses may make it
challenging to excel in specific roles, so it's crucial to
carefully consider the Abyss Curse when creating an
Abyssborn character.
Since Abyssborn individuals don't face any difficulties,
they can easily handle any class. Developing a class by
consulting the rolled ability growth as the class progresses
may be beneficial. If the class becomes more challenging or
if the Abyss Curse chosen during character creation
becomes burdensome due to changes in equipment, it
could be worth spending an Abyss Shard to change the
Abyss Curse.
Make use of your high ability scores and overcome the
fate of the Abyss while compensating for the weak points of
the entire party.

They have lost their ability to move normally
underwater due to the frigid temperatures of the lands and
have instead developed the ability to create ice.
This is thought to have been a way to protect themselves
from animals and other enemies in the harsh natural

Despite living in the cold, they are not particularly

yarn and have developed a wide variety of gear to survive
the conditions.
Their houses are typically made from wood with solid

their houses with ice ornamentations.
Due to the small population size and remote locations,
their culture and lifestyle tend to fall on the rustic and simple
side.
They sometimes guard the ruins and treasures of the

 The Pico species of Tabbits are particularly small, with
males and females usually less than 1 meter tall and most
adults about 90 centimeters tall. They have short ears and
can produce a very high-pitched voice that sounds like a
bird's and can be heard from a great distance. This voice
allows them to speak their own language, called Picospeak,
which only Pico species can speak. Other races can learn it
but cannot speak it.
Compared to other Tabbit species, they tend to be more
agile and dexterous and are often timid and cautious. They
are not as arrogant as other Tabbit species, which may be
due to their cautious nature. They tend to retreat to their
comfortable roosts.
The Pico Tabbits habitually collect treasures in their
roosts and often pass them down from generation to
generation.

Pico Tabbits have the following changes when

determining the ability score.

transform its head to resemble that of a large herbivore.
After the transformation, the Lykant gains characteristics

 Among the Grassrunners, this rare species is particularly
curious. They are daredevils who are not afraid to explore
the strange and mysterious, often leading to trouble. Their
curiosity can sometimes lead them to open locked doors

permission and return them to their original place of

tasks such as searching, investigating, following, scouting,

that of the original Grassrunner.
Typically, the Bard stays in the rear and uses musical
instruments in battle. Although they cannot directly attack
or heal, the Bard class excels at supporting companions.
The more companions they have, the more effective their
support becomes.

 This is a carnivorous Meria, essentially a short-lived
species. It grows from such plants as flycatchers and pitcher
plants (which have flowers and leaves for capturing prey).
Carnivorous Meria are all short-lived and tend to be
relatively quiet and patient. However, many have belligerent
personalities and are aggressive in battle. They also enjoy
hunting, which is unique among Meria.
They live mainly by hunting in their villages in the
forests, but many of them travel in search of other Meria
settlements to mate.
Carnivorous Meria settlements sometimes accumulate
valuable materials obtained from preyed animals. They may
also serve as guardians of ruins due to their vigorous fighting

Additionally, when they perform a melee attack, ranged
attack, or cast a spell that directly damages the target and
causes physical or magical damage to another character,
they can use this ability during the damage process to

 them with Human children of the same age. In rare cases
they are raised as Human children in remote areas.
Spriggans who grew up in such a society of Humans, or
Spriggans who have no ruins to protect, are sometimes
called "Treasure-less”. These Spriggans roam the world in
search of hidden treasures and places to protect. Some of
them seem to understand human society and become
adventurers.
Spriggans are considered adults at about 15 years of age,
but in human morphology, they look like a 10-year-old child
until about 300 years of age, which would be unnatural if
they lived in a human society. Conversely, Spriggans are
rarely noticed for any other reason.
Of course, if Spriggans transform into Giants, their true
identity will soon be revealed. Many of them have muscular
and strong builds, and they sometimes wear heavy
equipment to match their gigantic size. When they
transform into giants, they tend to lean forward, with their
heads reaching a little over 2 meters in height. However,
when they grow even taller, they can reach nearly 3 meters.
If they suddenly appear in front of ordinary humans, it is
inevitable that they will be mistaken for monsters and often
considered Barbarous.
Nevertheless, Spriggans are patient, principled, and
trustworthy. Once you join them as an adventurer, you can
be sure to rely on them as they are very reliable.

 The most distinguishing feature and drawback of
Abyssborn is that they are born with the "Abyss's Curse" on
their bodies. This curse grants them superior physical
abilities but can also lead to malfunctions and repel people.
Similarly, an "Abyss Weapon" that carries the "Abyss's
Curse" can be freed from the curse by giving up its
equipment. However, an Abyssborn cannot escape from
this fate for the rest of their life. Meanwhile, in the Shallow
Abyss, the negative effects of this curse will disappear.
However, in order to avoid any negative impact on their
normal life, Abyssborn individuals require Abyss Shards.
Because of this, many Abyssborn become adventurers and
spend their entire lives challenging the Shallow Abyss.
Their lifespan is not significantly different from that of
humans. They are considered adults at the age of 15 and
may live up to 100 years.

Inevitably, the Abyssborn have been part of history since

the appearance of "Abyss" at the end of the Ancient Magic
Civilization period. At that time, not only the Alframe
continent but the entire world of Raxia was in a state of
severe chaos, making it unclear how and when Abyssborn
first appeared in the world.
Although there is no solid evidence, Abyssborn began
to be widely recognized mainly around 3000 years ago when

establishment of the Magitech Civilization. During this

when they use magic, the mana converges and emits a faint

Another important characteristic of Newmen is their
ability called [Déjà Vu]. While uncertain, this ability allows
them to recall memories from a previous life, sometimes
leading to unexpected moments of inspiration.
The inheritance of memories from past lives gives a
glimmer of hope to Newmen, who have a life expectancy of
no more than 30 years. The possibility that they can connect
unfinished tasks from their short lives to their next lives
alleviates their despair.
Whether or not the memories experienced in [Déjà Vu]
truly belong to the individual Newman is uncertain.
However, these memories are believed to belong to the time
when they were Newmen. The memories can be recent or
from the Magic Civilization Period.
Since Newmen are considered adults at the age of 15,
they have just over 10 years to fully mature. As a result, they
do not experience old age, but many of them pass away
before age 25. Sudden cardiac arrest or the rupture of blood
vessels in the brain are the most common causes of death.

The magical research institutions of the Alframe
continent are making excellent use of their brains and
memories, leading to Newmen often becoming court
sorcerers or holding important positions in the Magician's
Guild.
Newmen are also aware of their limited lifespan and
fragility and are actively seeking ways to cope with it. They
have established a network to gather information, actively
searching for sites where Newmen are sealed.
They also actively pursue relationships with members of
other races, as intermarriage with a different race has a low
chance of producing a Newman. Newmen's enchanting

are considered magical by the opposite sex.
In addition to preserving the memory of the Ancient
Magic Civilization era, Newmen are skilled at creating art
inspired by this period. They are highly respected by both
artists and researchers.

Fluorites are roughly the same size as humans, but their
ore bodies are much heavier, weighing approximately twice
as much as a similarly sized human. Due to their transparent
bodies, they are difficult to see under strong light sources
like sunlight. Aware of this, Fluorites prefer clothing
covering their entire body. To avoid startling the general
public, Fluorites often conceal their true identity by wearing
hats, hoods, and scarves or mufflers to cover their faces.
However, they do not feel ashamed of their appearance and
are willing to expose their true faces when asked.

"What can I do and what will I do." They have developed

Additionally, they highly value friendship and camaraderie.

driving them to develop new weapons and possess a deep
understanding of Magitech, which is unusual for a
Barbarous society. They frequently venture to the surface to
gather information on the latest technology or acquire
products for further study.
However, the most unique technological offering of the
Dark Dwarves is the smelting of ignidite steel. They have
acquired the "Black Flame," previously held only by the
monocular giants known as Cyclopes, and can now wield its
power at will. The "Black Flame" is essential for smelting
ignidite steel, making the Dark Dwarves the sole masters of
this material in the world.
Historically, Dwarves and Dark Dwarves have been
bitter enemies since the War of the Gods, harboring intense
hatred for each other. However, Dark Dwarves have
established positive relationships with other races,
particularly in their dealings with Humanoids in the Ignidite
trade. The Dark Dwarves themselves do not bear soulscars
and conduct secret business in Human cities, distancing
themselves from the typical Barbarous image.
Although supplying weapons to the Barbarous has

 The exact birth dates of the Alves are unknown. Due to
their small population, lack of a collective history, and their
secretive nature, there are very few records about them.
It is believed that vampires may have existed as early as
the Divine Civilization Period if Harula, the guiding
goddess, had purified them. However, it wasn't until the
middle of the Magic Civilization Period that the Alves
started appearing in written documents and inscriptions.
The Alves had a distinct appearance and relied on
sucking mana to survive. During the Magic Civilization
Period, they gained favor with many wizard-kings due to
their talent and proficiency in magic. The Alves were skilled
magicians, making them highly valuable and useful. Some
of them even became wizard-kings and established
kingdoms with the Alves at the heart of the state.
However, like many wizard-kings, the Alves ruled over
the commoners and acted as absolute rulers. Their
unrestricted power made them resemble vampire kings.
This association is believed to have led to the perception of
Alves as vampires and Barbarous.
Perhaps in response to this, the period between the
collapse of the Magic Civilization and the transition to

Shadows have lived as mercenaries and assassins
throughout their extensive history, displaying exceptional
combat abilities. Apart from their proficiency with weapons,
they have also demonstrated an aptitude for unarmed
combat, covert operations, and accomplishing their
objectives. While not well-known on the Alframe continent,
Shadows' assassination squads are highly capable and are
regarded as symbols of terror on the Razeldawn and
Terastier continents.
Shadows are a race that values contracts and faith and is
renowned for never breaking promises. Due to their
prioritization of contracts over personal emotions, they are
often called a ruthless race or unwaveringly trustworthy
warriors.

Shadows have existed in history for a surprisingly long

time, as confirmed by stone monuments from the Divine
Civilization Period. It is believed that Shadows were born
with the blessing of the moon goddess Sien and established
as a race. According to legend, the Shadows served as

Consequently, the precise history of the Soleils is difficult to

However, many of these dances and songs are
