   Name: [Beastkin] Type: [Bundle of huma-related races] Part of: [World population and races] Amount of beastkin in the world: [1.35 billion approx. Second most abundant race behind humans] Scientific name: [Homo Sapiens Faunus] Description: [Beastkins are one of the pillars of the population of our beloved world. Their origin used to be treated as a mystery until in the 1800s when, alongside the theory of evolution, it was studied and found out that the beastkin evolved alongside humans since the cave era: Early warlocks and magic casters used the unrefined raw magic of the world to bless themselves with the spirits of the animals they killed and ate, resulting in them gainng temporaly some animal features and instincts, which gave the sapient humans an edge against a wild magical world. But due to unforseen consequences (we now know that what happened was the magic attaching itself to a certain pattern in the genetic code of humans) some of them were “cursed” or “blessed” with permanent animal features of the animals they decided to take from and other animal that they have also seen or hunted prior to the transformation. Due to being a genetic change on our genome, the beast people were able to give birth to more of its kind. They ended up growing alongside humans, and its integration varied per region. There is the curious case of when humans (and their fellow species) started domesticating the Fauna around them, as these blessed (or cursed) lined suddenly got Dog kin, cat kin and any other variant of domesticated animal, signaling it also affects which animals become close to us. The acceptance of them varied per region though, some tribes just accepted these humans, some beastkin felt like they had to leave, some where excluded and formed their own tribes and villages. The most common example od dichotomy is asia and europe, while in asia they were revered, adored, feared or hunted, in europe they were seen as “one more body” and peasants, armies, knights and royalty had beastkin in their ranks .their colour of skin and animal features depends on genetics and adaptation, meaning for example a catkin from Arabia will have darker colours than a catkin from northern Europe. What is still not clear is if the Magical explanation is something that is 100% accurate, as if true, all sub species of homo sapiens would be able to manifest them, while starborns (homo sapiens astrum) and avalonians (Homo sapiens avalons) can be born aroundd beastkin people due to these being mutations by themselves, other distinct races like elves and dwarves (Homo sapiens elficus, homo sapiens enanus) who are big evolutionary deviatons WON’T show these traces, so it is believed that its genetics evolved both from magic and adaptation, testing is still required]

Due to their more animalistic nature and above average physicao capabilities, the tribes help educate, train and prepare young beastkin alongside managing the "inner animal" in their soul. at the same time they are keepers of traditions and techniques and they actively participate in archeology genetic and cultural investigations.] Famous examples: [Cairo's tails and furs: They have existed since the old egyptian empire.

He was friends with Beckford’s son, and he felt like he could provide a more art focused magical education. He read about the old days were troubadors and dancers used their own magic to create illusions, shadow dances and a lot of artistic pieces that they seemed lost in time.

Quality education] Country of origin: [Swiss Federation] City of Origin: [Zurich] Date of founding: [17 of march of 1899] Founder: [Dr. Richard Adolf Müller] Current head: [Master Surgeon Antonio Verassi] Amount of schools around of the globe: [4, all in switzerland, each brach of them represents one speciality of the mixed art of magic and mundane healing] Description: [founded at the end of the century, Helvetia’s is the most well known medical-arcane school in the worls, they are both investigators, students and also have hospitals where they treat the most rare or sensible cases of both munda phisiology and mana physiology. Helvetia’s is know because it is easy to get in, but is hard to stay as the things that happens during the early practices can only be described as “Traumatizing”. We are talking mana working wrong, the worst cancers, people barely alive, soul trapper and fragmented like crushed bones, thus usually any medical personal (including but not limited to Nurses, doctors, surgeons and all specialities) tend to be both desensitized and incredibly weird people, at the same time they are considered “Heroes” because they are people who never gives up on saving a patient. The saying goes “If you see a half-Drunk, overly flirty and foul smelling doctor, nurse or surgeon. don’t report him to HR but salute him, as they are a Helvetia’s hero”. Itis the only instittution where alcohol and tobacco can be publicly publicitated, as their students and personel need it the most. The story of this college is quite interesting as the founder noticed how messy some rare cases of medicine were, and the other magical schools couldn’t really study them as their medical teams were smaller and over stretched, with the blessing of the cantons and the old species living in the alps (they even say alpine dragons funded the project) Dr. Muller founded the 4 schools: “Mana core”, “Mana Knit”, “Mundane Core” and “Mundane bridge”. Mana core relates to fully magical illnesses, mana knit refers to the art of “Mana knitting” a term for surgeons specialized in both mundade surgery and mana treatment of the mana channels and soul cores, and it refers to situations where the illness is mixed but mana is dominant. Mundane core is mostly a normal med school but with magic sprinkled (as any living being) and “Mundane bridging” is similar to the mana knit,but it is more focused on magical issues with a mundane or physical origin]

During the isolation era, they served as sanctuaries for the hurt, they protected part of the peasantry and were one of the most important instintutions, even rivaling the shoguns’s and emperor’s power. During the werternization of the empire of japan, they adapted to the concept of the GME (General magic education) and started allowing more people to come teach, be educated but in other cases some shrines remained like centers of magical services and spiritual boons. Shrines are usually owned by families or people and can change hands. The ones that serve as schools of them have to follow the national GME nowadadays and they don’t replace normal education, while other serve more of a spiritual and magic service purpose.

    [Runic tattoos are a way for various races to improve their native powers or abilities. They require a compatible body, or an extremely trained one. Having runic tattoos on the body usually means that the user usually has physical demanding tasks. Magic-related runes do exist, but they aren’t as popular as the physical-related ones. Runic tattoos are not that rare to see, but what is rare is how many a body can hold: a normal human can resist one. Beastkin elves, dwarves and the likes two. Dragons, big beasts and everything powerful up to 4 to 8. For a human or beastkin to have above two up to 5 it’s considered as the person having extremely advanced magic abilities. ]

Swings between fourth and fifth most populuous race] Important note: [The population of this singles subspecies is high enough to be counted outside the total amount of beastkin on earth, so almost all census data or surveys keep both accounts separated] Scientific name: [Homo sapiens faunus gremlicus] Characteristics: [no distinguishable animal features besides some specimens having slithed eyes, Lon tail with a huge three fingered hand and a fake ege, the figners of the hand-tail are short but functional, Human-like body, race: Caucasians 98% of the time, Height varies from 120cm to 155cm. Tallest gremlin ever recorded was 180cm tall (Big bob the gremlin, a circus performer). Lean bodies, not too much mass of muscles but dense dones, muscles adapted to run, lungs adapted to constant pressure. Weak to illnesses, weaker immune systems, can’t eat legumes or beans due to being allergic. Females tend to be taller than males by a 2cm margin. Good sense of smell. Weight average sits around 40 to 45kgs in males and 42 to 47kg on females. They live around 50 to 60 years in average with modern medicine. Usually females have twins or triplets, incredibly strong for their size. Strongest members of the species can rival a seasoned human] Description: [Gremlins (from the old tribal latvian word “Gremsh-tinus” or “Humans that reproduce like ants) are a sub-race of beastkin that originates from the eastern reaches of europe, going from southern finland to the caucasus region. It is theorized the origin of the Gremlins come from the evolution of certain lost tribes related more to still not-recognized animals, but give their innate agility and grace, gazelles, monkeys, horses and even avian creatures are not discarded to have formed part of the mix. Gremlin males and females tend to be of the same height, but data shows that females tend to be 2cm taller than average. The adaptation to the forest and the plains of the regions they lived made them exceptionallu agile and fast, being known to be really good hunters and even being able to swim. During centuries, the gremlins libed a more disorganized, tribal life around estern europe, but with the advance of different kings, empires and even crusades, the gremlins were finally integrated into the “Sapient” species in 1266 AD after the church vouched for them and decided to stop any plans of killing them in masse. Since then gremlins have been a common sight in europe, having various children, being small but important on the great scheme of things. They are numerous because they tend to have twins or triplets more commonly than other species of the sapients (Not saying that all gremlins come as twins, but it normal enough to have a stereotype of being “fertile” as a species) During history, Gremlins had 3 important positions: Cheap and realiable workforce, Court jesters (their tails and charisma were weapons they used to survive the worst feudal lords) and Light infantry or scouts in the military. The tratment varied between lords, some overexploited them, others knew the value of a good Gremlin peasantry and even had 1 or 2 as retinue. During the advance of the years and ages, they were, like their beastkin cousins, changing their roles constantly, the peasentry became industrial workers and miners, the skirmishers became line infantry, the jesters became performers. One of the most modern changes the people saw of gremlins was during WWII were the soviet union had complete regiments of gremliki conscripts, factory workers and even the famous tank T39/72-1RG “Rodina Gremlika”, a special ambush tank built around their own biology and magic abilities]
