Angels
Angels are beings blessed after death. If a person was exceptional during their life time, they were taken by a deity and made blessed spirits. Some have wings and some don't, based on their roll and life. They would maintain the same element they had in their previous life, and continue to have no other. They would also look like their previous form, same gender and everything. Most would be the same, but they might have wings and have to serve their deity.
Advantages:
- Exceptional healing powers
- If with wings, can fly
- Blessed by some deities
Disadvantages:
- Not very strong fighters with weapons
- If they have wings but are not of air, they can not fly as well as an air nation member
- Some deities don't like them too much cause they can only be claimed by one

Centaurs
Centaurs are half human, half horse. They contain a horse as the lower half (everything of the horse except the head) and in replacement of the head is the top half of a human body. Most any horse can be used (but keep in mind that zebras were not indigenous to the region, therefore would not be a usual choice of a lower half.) There are usually two basic personality types of centaurs; untamed and scholarly. Untamed would be wild, more horse-like while scholarly would be wise and thoughtful.
Advantages:
- Run rather well, don't get as tired as easily
- Very stable, strong, since they have four legs
- Usually rather wise or very instinctive in battle
Disadvantages:
- Very large, so they are normally not very agile in battle
- Can be very wild, to the point of unsafe
- Usually can't go some places humans go (small houses, narrow roads/paths, etc.) and can't fly

Demons
Demons are the exact opposite of angels. Instead of being blessed by a deity when they die, they are cursed by at least one deity. Also unlike angels, if a dead spirit is not blessed fast enough, another deity can curse it, but once it's cursed or blessed, it stays that way forever. Most look the same as they did in their lifetimes and contain the same element, no other. Few have wings, and few of those with wings can actually fly if they're not of air. They also can be cursed by one than more deity, making their afterlife as horrible as possible. However, the first curse is always to be cursed to live on the earth with nothing. No goal, no feeling, nothing. The ones after that can range from crippled to blind to dumb.
Advantages:
- Rather skilled at hand to hand combat
- If only cursed by one deity, can be very agile (sometimes the second curse or the others after can affect thier agility)
- Usually clever and skillful with what they have to live with
Disadvantages:
- Can be cursed by any deity at any time
- Curses can effect thier advantages
- Slow at healing usually

Dragons
Dragons usually don't always look like dragons. Most area able to take a human form. However, there are other dragons that stay in dragon form and choose to serve a human master. (AKA, if you rp as a dragon, he usually can change to a human, but if you have a dragon as a pet, he can only be a dragon.) Most dragons in dragon form are large ones. They also have elemental powers and hold to those element's powers. Like, if you're a dragon of air or earth, you can't shoot flames from your mouth. Also, when in human form, they can't do things they can do like if they were in dragon form. Like even if they're of fire, they can't shoot flames out of their human mouth.
Advantages:
- Their elemental powers can be stronger than a normal human's when in dragon form
- All elements can fly (cause they have wings)
- Lots of muscle power, plus sharp tallons
Disadvantages:
- Their human forms are usually weaker and not too good at hand-to-hand combat
- Can't maneuver well, as scales can weigh them down and restrict movement
- Not a good user of magic

Dwarves
These Dwarves aren't your Snow White dwarves. These are proud and confident little creatures, sometimes to the extreme. They've got tough, rough skin usually. They can be very sarcastic and rude at points, thinking they are better than others. Some dig while others fight. Every once in a while they come across as nice, but usually not without a price or without something in it for themselves. Yes, they're short and some have the white beards, but you won't be seeing them working in the woods all happy while singing songs.
Advantages:
- With tough skin, some can be hard to pierce with sword or knife
- The fighting dwarves are quite good fighters. The digging ones are just good at digging
- Usually get their way
Disadvantages:
- Since they have slow legs, they don't run or travel too well
- They take long to heal
- Their pridefulness can get them in a lot of trouble

Elves
Depending on the elf you pick, their general personalities change. There are wood, dark/drows, light, high, gray, and aquatic elves. High elves are the most common type, usually and of course aquatic elves can only live in the water. The wood, light, and high are usually the nicer of the elves and usually are good at political things while the dark elves (or drows), gray and aquatic can be rather rude, self-absorbed, and tricky. Other than personality, most elves are typically the same. They tend to wear light armor, making them faster and more agile.They see art in everything, whether it be actually beautiful or horrid. They also see art in war. They work to make them selves look elegant yet precise. They tend to think they're the better race, out of all of them.
Advantages:
- With their long limbs and light armor, they can usually be very swift and fast, but also quite elegant
- They are very good at utilizing their element for whatever their need may be
- They are usually strong in magic and are rather good archers.
Disadvantages:
- Because they work to look elegant when fighting, their inflictions tend to be less brutal
- Their armor is usually very thin, along with being light, so it usually can easily be pierced
- Though they work on fighting, they are only about as good as the average human when it comes to hand to hand, since they work on technique more than anything

Fairies
Fairies in modern culture thanks to false ideas have us thinking that fairies were innocent little creatures who like to help people. The original and real fairies were dangerous creatures of whom people feared. They are tricksters whom people used to try and appease with bowls of milk. They only have enough room for one emotion at a time and are no larger than your hand. No fairy will ever be half of any other species because it is impossible. Usually wear clothes an armor made with magic and nature.
Advantages:
- Can fly to any height
- Quick
- Extremely good at using magic
Disadvantages:
- Easily squished
- Not very strong
- Since they only have room for one emotion they act without thinking
