| − | Divinities come in a staggering variety, each being the servant of a major god. Some are angelic beauties, taking wing on flying mounts. Others are sinister shadows, dragging the unfaithful to a fate worse than death. They are often created directly through their master's will as it bends the raw stuff of magic into custom made servants. Others are the spirits of faithful followers who, having passed, have been given a position in their deity's host. |

These beings are not only still capable of rebelling against their masters, they are still able to create soul bearing offspring.

The great Celestial Dragon, Aurrhou, created the dragons to drive away demons, giants to bind the elements and fairy folk, elves and goblins, to manage nature. Of all the children of Aurrhou, mankind is the most curious. Man seems to have no purpose other than test the patience of all else in creation.
The trouble stems from the one thing that is unique to the species: the soul. All other spirits, whether immortal fairy or mortal beast, are bound to their creation. It is what it was made to be and can be nothing else. Only man can change. Only man can choose. This is the effect of that divine spark called the soul.
Long, long ago, before the God War, a very few souls were made for fairy folk, copied from those of men. These few souls gave their bearers the ability not only to choose, but to breed with mankind. The first half-breeds were terribly powerful individuals, the rivals of any elven lord. Over time and many generations, their blood has thinned and spread.
The races in the Player's Handbook, in this setting, represent humans that still have strong supernatural traits. All are technically human, however.
