Whose eyes will you look through when walking through the realm of Avatar? The twitching blink of a scared Goblin? The sure gaze of a Dwarf that revels in the beauty of a mountains shape (without ever so many words) or the ancient look of an elf who sings of the marvels of the old forests? There are many more to choose from, and with time you might even transform yourself into one of those rarer races: a Sprite, Minotaur or even Dragon!

For a list of all racial abilities, see Racial Abilities.

• Below are the basic categories of races available to players.

Creatable Races

These races are available for everybody when starting a new character: Choose to be a raging orc, a gracious elf, a dwarf, an ogre...

Remort Races

It takes the power of a Lord to transform their being into a new form, to mold their body into the special forms of a remort race.

Evolutionary Races

Change is the word for these races: through their lifetime they will go through growth spurts, changing their shape, their abilities - evolution.

Ascension Races

A few of the remort races take one step further, and ascend to a higher plane of existance. These legendary ascension races no longer return to Midgaardia.
