|The Refani are an enigma. In all ways, they appear and act just like normal Humani except for the fact they they only can be viewed- indeed, maybe even only exist- in mirrors. When a Refani moves or interacts with the reflection of a thing in the real world, the real world is affected equally by a seemingly invisible force- but take away the mirror, and the force disappears. Scholars have asked the Refani what existence is like for them when they aren't reflecting the real world, but it seems that our language has no vocabulary for the space outside the looking-glass. | | |The Refani are an enigma.

- | | | | + | |Thought by many to be only an urban legend, the Xiphani are real but only rarely seen. The appearance of a Xiphani in a settlement is a great cause for alarm, for everyone know that where a mothman goes horrific disaster is always only a few steps behind. The truth is that the Xiphani have a limited ability to see the future and appear on the dawn of catastrophe in an attempt to spread a warning, but are instead blamed for it due to their inability to communicate in any way other than pantomime and projecting emotions. |

- | | | | + | |The Hemani were created not by the Ravelcrux but by more artificial means in the Second Age and imprisoned in volcanoes around the world by their sorcerer-god masters to harness their exquisite smithing skills. It is for this reason that most remaining Hemani have cultivated an intense, personal hatred of all deities and would-be deities. Only the Hemani men are wise, skilled and immortal; Hemani women are much smaller and shorter-lived than the men (averaging a lifespan of twenty years) and possess the mental acuity of cattle. Only one Hemani child in a thousand is born male, and every female is near-identical in every observable and genetic sense. And so the volcanic prisons of their kind are generally structured around a single chained man and his harem of interchangeable daughter-wives. |
