Appearance
Humans have one form, but they vary widely in appearance. A human's appearance does not depend on their climate, parentage or surroundings. Hair color can run anywhere between dark brown and black to white blonds and red heads. Common eye colors are brown, green and blue, or combinations of the three. Adult humans generally range between a little over five feet tall to a little over six foot. Rarely does a human reach over six and a half feet or under five foot, once they've reached adulthood. They may be lanky and thin to broad and stout. A human's lifespan can sometimes range as high as a hundred years.
Combat
While some humans may possess great physical prowess and prefer hand to hand combat, humans generally prefer to utilize weapons of some sort. Most weapons used by any of the three races can trace their origins to a human inventor, and are a product of human ingenuity.
Habitat/Society
Humans can survive in nearly any climate and habitat, changing it to suit their needs. On an instinctual level, humans are pack animals and prefer to live within groups of their own kind. Like most pack animals, they are very loyal to their own kind and suspicious of those who prove to be not like themselves. Most humans are patriarchal, as they worship the god Sol, the Father.
Humans live in various types of groups and have various methods of leadership. Some enjoy tribal life, others live in towns and cities, while others still live in loose groups dwelling in the same general area and interacting with each other rarely. Along the same lines, some humans live in tribes with chiefs, some lead by councils, and others still tyrannical leaders.
Human families are generally made up of parental units and their children. Since humans are plentiful (and most don't know that there are 'rival' races), there is rarely social pressure for individuals to produce offspring. Such decisions are generally left up to the individual. In the rare case of interracial relationships, humans are unable to reproduce with non-humans, and the fact that their partner is non-human is kept secret, sometimes even from the human partner.
Human pregnancies last nine months, and females may become pregnant at any time.
Ecology
Humans can exist in almost any climate, from deserts to artic tundra. They change their environment to suit their needs, as they can with tools and knowledge. They are omnivorous, both growing and foraging plant life and hunting for their meals.
