Humans

Humans are the most populated species on Sylos, and are considered to be the most average of all the races. They are not born of light or dark energy, but are one of a handful of races that have both light and dark energy inside of them. The path they take in life will lead them towards one of darkness or one of the light, but it is a choice that is left up to the individual. Even humans whose souls are filled with light energy still have darkness within them, even if it may only be a sliver of their soul. Any human soul can be corrupt by the opposing energy force, and it is because of this that many who are not humans have become weary when making deals and alliances with them. The biggest fault of the human race is their uncontrollable greed for power. Once a human has been exposed to power, their drive for more can be equated to that of an addict. Many great Kingdoms have fallen because of this, and it can be said with great assurance that many more Kingdoms will continue the cycle. Humans will generally live between 70-100 years old. Because they are spread out over all continents of Sylos, it is hard to say where the "true" home of Humans lies, but it is said in great texts that they originated in the Southern Tier of the Eastern Kingdoms. Humans are the most basic of species, which is why they inhabit every planet in the Elduan Galaxy. They are also the least predictable species, which serves as a reason as to why the Ulgundar are so interested in the human race. The Ulgundar use the human race as an experiment, to see if this race can control the balance of energy within their planet. On each planet the humans encounter different life forms (as compared to Sylos) and the Ulgundar watch these interactions to see if the human race, one not born with an allegiance to the dark or light, can balance the power of their planet through the nature of their species.
