Men, or Manfolk, are the dominant race in Runera, and often use their position of superiority to abuse and exploit other peoples. Not only are men responsible for the founding of great empires such as [[Old Ildir]], but they are also masters of the [[Hand of Alor|Hand]] and its many tendrils of power. Manfolk occupy nearly every stratum of society in Runera, from the lowliest peasant to the mightiest king. Men possess the following traits: - **Age:** Men rarely live longer than a century, and most suffer violent and tragic deaths well before then. - **Young-middle aged:** 15 + 2d10 years. - **Old:** 60 + 2d6 years. - **Size:** Men vary greatly in size and build. - **Indomitable Spirit:** Your maximum _[[Rerolls]]_ increase by 1. - **Versatile:** During character creation, you can apply +1 to an attribute of your choice (maximum 16, cannot be applied to _[[Luck]]_ or Initiative).
