Dwarves, elves, gnomes and halflings are all descended from the original settlers or an outsider who arrived during the last five centuries. Half-elves are descended from a union between a native elf and native human. Since there are no orcs on Thylea, all half-orcs come from a small community in Mytros that has existed since its founding. Tieflings can come from a union between a mortal spellcaster and a fiend. A dragonborn is someone who has the blood of the original bronze dragons in their veins. The children of the dragons usually take on the characteristics of the species of their mortal parent, but sometimes they are born with a strong tie to their draconic ancestors.

Thylean Names#

Names in Thylea have a Greek flavor to them. This applies to both humans and non-human species. However, it is fine for players to choose names that follow a more traditional fantasy adventuring flavor or use something completely different: all of the native species are only a few centuries removed from their original homelands.
