  Humans are the most adaptable and numerous race found on Therya, the standard by which the other races -- demihuman and darkling alike -- are measured. They are also the youngest of the major races, and arguably the most ruthless. Humanity conquers wilderness, builds cities, develops economies and drives back the primevil chaos by their very nature. It is mankind that founded the Great Empire, even if a hobbit now carries the title of Empress. Human abilities reflect the race's diverse and adaptable nature. They receive bonus Feats to reflect their prowess, take advantage of special skills at character creation to reflect their diversity and despite starting with no attribute modifiers, they have the potential to develop their attributes beyond the maximums of any other race.

HUMAN RACIAL SKILLS
   Humans have no devoted areas of specialization the way most of the other races do. They may choose any two skills to treat as racial skills.

HUMAN RACIAL TRAITS
  * Racial Weapons -- Humans are diverse and have no special or favoured racial weapons.
  * Inherent Potential -- While elves are on average more graceful than humans, dwarves hardier and orcs stronger, there exist legendary heros from within the human race that exceed the capacity of all the other races. In game terms, humans can gain increased benefit from inherent adjustments to their ability scores. While the other races can gain a maximum inherent bonus to any one ability score of +5, humans can gain inherent bonuses to a single ability totalling +8.
  * Versatility -- Humans are the quickest learners, and the most adaptable to new situations, of any race living on Therya. They gain bonus feats at 1st, 5th, 10th, 15th and 20th level -- these being chosen from the full list of feats in the game. Humans also gain an additional 2 skill points at every level they advance. Finally, humans consider every class to be a favoured class, and can thus multiclass freely without fear of an experience penalty.
  * Starting Equipment -- Humans start with food rations, a medium backpack and torches.
