Species: The Dragon

While tetrapods take their very name from their four limbs and the state persists in every bird, fish, and frog, a certain branch of the dinosaur family tree deviated from this reliable plan, creating the warm-blooded, winged, and eventually sentient family dragonis: six limbed, six-digit creatures more commonly called dragons.

Species: The Fay

Not long after the evolutionary appearance of humanity, in terms of epochs, the first branch of the fay peoples developed. Perhaps the two diverged within a few thousand years of each other, and it is generally assumed that homo sapiens magica became its own species no more than ten thousand years after the first homo sapiens sapiens, and from a different branch altogether. At the same time a younger people and an older people, due to their long lifespans, the fay are also proud, and tell themselves often that they are the proper evolutionary trend, because they are the last-- the correction of nature's mistake.

Species: The Human

Humanity is familiar, with all it's quirks of health and psychology. The only difference in this world from our own is how humanity has been forced to grow in tandem with dragonkind and the fay. While minds and bodies are the same, technology and history and culture have some significant differences.

Species: Mixed Breeds

The offspring of humans and fay, humans and dragons, and sometimes a little of all three, have a wide range of abilities. The most common of them are listed here. Perhaps a fifth of the modern human race in Europe and Asia, an eighth of Africa, and upwards of a quarter of people in the Americas have some level of fay blood, even if it's just a great-great grandparent, and even that small drop might be enough for some small talent. It is much more rare to have more than fifty percent fay blood, as only in extreme cases are mixed blooded individuals allowed back into fay society.
