ABOUT THE ELVES (& Others)
The elves in this story are not the ones you may be familiar with from mythology, or even
Tolkien. While they do share some
qualities with such creatures—pointy ears, long lives—they are also parts of
very distinct clans within the Blue Kingdoms milieu.
According to the Blue
Kingdoms Sourcebook…
Nyarri elves are hedonists. (Fansuri, Faye, Wendi)
Astiri elves are starwatchers,
dreamers. (Brandi)
Drow are an offshoot of the Yndari (underground) elves who delved
too deep and became enmeshed with dark powers.
(Ragnara)
Orks (not to be confused with the orcs
in other fantasy stories) came into existence only recently, in the Tournament of Death 3, when they were
created from a lesser, goblin-like race called jenrats. (Torika)
Of course, like everybody in the world, each of our
characters has her own personality, distinct from the qualities of her
people. Tori, for instance, is an ork
who doesn’t like fighting, and Ragnara, a former drow assassin, would just as
soon fuck someone as kill them (most of the time).
