Morlocks are the remains of the Sprites that created the Factory. This is one of the few secrets not mentioned even within the arcane teachings of the rules.

Elves have an arcane language. It is called, in the Elvin tongue, Tol-ki'en.

Fairies are held in awe by Elves. It is believed that they are distantly related, as Fairies appear to be nothing more than a chaotic mass of glamour. Because of this, Fairies are easily manipulated by their shape and form. Most of them use magical trinkets to inforce stability upon their unstable bodies.

(Why. :( )

Half-Djinn generally have an aversion to silver, which burns them.

Half-Breeds have a very high infant mortality rate. Dhampirs are often born boneless, Half-Were children often die from physical problems due to incompatable organs or diet, Half-Elves are often born as nothing but a whisp of smoke or a bundle of leaves, while Fext or Dwarf pairings are very infertile. Half-Djinn children have a distressing tendency to explode.

Contradicting earlier portions of the thread. There's no sun and magic is item based.

Human myths state that that there was once a large light that crossed the sky. This is regarded as absurd by others.

It is also believed by some humans that a multitude of lesser lights used to dot the sky (in truth as large as, or larger than the great light itself, but much farther away), and that there was once only one moon, which was neither red nor blue. Human mystics are hard at work to prove this true, but evidence so far is inconclusive, at best.

Many believe that the waters are infinite, transcending the present dimension in a continual flow, a single coalescing body, through which its denizens, including the Merfolk, the Merrow and the Tritons, may all freely travel at will.
The planet now circles around a dense sphere of water believe to be connected to the waters on the planet.

The scaly-skinned Goblin race is noted for being both energetic and clever.

Goblins and Centaurs culture is symbiotic, with the clever but weak Goblin bonding with the strong and slow witted Centaurs. Such bonds are the strongest either of the two races posses, transcending family and love as the most important relationship either will ever have.

Vampires (with fangs retracted) and Fexts are nearly impossible to physical tell apart. To remedy this, rules dictate that outside of their homes, Male Vampires must wear some article of blue at all times; Female Vampire must wear some article of red at all times; Male Fexts must wear some article of green at all times; Female Fexts must wear some article of purple at all times.

It is believed that, at one time, magic was possible without objects.

It is also believed that Human, Elf and Djinn mystics are currently working on ways to perform magic without objects.

(Can we refrain from posting back-to-back? Giving other people a chance to post ideas is good.)

Djinni are noted for their exotic physical appearance, as they have brightly colored and many hued skin, four arms and have neither external ears nor hair.

The Merrow are an exclusively female species but possess the capability to mate with every other species of the world.

However, the rules dictate that Ogres and Merrow are forbidden to reproduce, under the harshest of penalties.
