Origins
First Races Evolved naturally from life within the first planes. These races spawned the first titans and first deities. Many of the first races have gone extinct, evolved into second races, or disappeared during the Mortal War.
Second Races Some of the Second Races evolved naturally from the First Races. Others were created whole cloth by the First Deities, looking to create life on their own terms. These new races grew into Second Titans, sparking The Mortal War against the gods in the Second Mythic Era.
Third Races After the tumultuous Mortal War, many classes of mortals, titans, and deities either die, hibernate, or ascend. Third races evolved or are created after the Mortal War in a multitude of ways in an equally numerous places.
