Humans

Humans are a primate race that are among the most largest people groups in Rathnir and Eldham. Although many humans lived on Rathnir and Eldham for many years, some humans migrated to Rathnir from Jagdas. According to some religions, humans may have also crossed over from other realms. Humans are related to other simians that are present in other locations, and are among the largest of any relative of primates in the world, numbering in the hundred millions.
