You can`t define this folks entirely, but here I will try to give you some of their habits. Torannians are mostly urban, and tend to agglomerate at huge cities other than make various towns. They are normally united and will aid anyone of his own as possible. Some of their favorite clothing are tunics, vests, dresses, cloaks and sandals. Torannian warriors tend to be very adventuring, except the paladins that must follow their governors. Mage torannians usually make a long life of study in the Magic House, to become travelers only when they fell enough wise and powerful to do it. Priests usually believe in the urban gods, and many of them live at Soldur, as you might expect from a priest. Torannian rogues tend to live at populated cities like Talantha, Bak and Zirmandia, and they are experts in dealing with the thieves and pirates that plagues the urban areas.

Role-Playing an Barren Orc: Every other civilized race thinks you are just a monster that came out of the Barren Mountains, and you must prove to them that you can make the things as good as any other race. Now that Zurtak has taken Sur and opened its portals to the humanoid races, you can work to show all the others that your race can run and manage a city as well as anybody. You are strong enough to enter any war and survive, cause you have passed many oppressions and intolerance before, and now its your time to teach the others how the orcs do fight a battle... With fierce skills and steel minds.

Half-Elves

Overlook: Half-elves are the breed originated by a torannian human and a high elf parent. Because their parents are both considered noble races, they are the only mixed race that others treat normally and without much repugnance. As you bet, their appearances, clothing and skills vary between humans and elves. Generally, they posses a human father and an elven mother, because usually are the humans who don`t resist the charm of the female high elves! Half-elves normally live at the cities, and only a few ones are accepted inside the Mahul Council.

Role-Playing a Half-Elf: Life have always showed two distinctive paths to you... You are not entirely human, and so you still have a connection with the Mahul forest and its mysteries. But you are not elven too, and you just don`t see the life with their noble and ancient eyes. Maybe you are both human and elven, maybe you haven`t anything to do with them. Both ways will lead you to the same concept, tough: That you must think for yourself, cause you are your only real parent.
