Race

This page shows a list of races that has already made an appearance in Xostya.

Overview
In Xostya, there existed a multitude of different races for players to choose from and play as them. Based on the game's setting, they were generally categorized into three main races; namely the "Human" race, "Demi-Human" race, and "Heteromorphic" race. The following context below is a list of the various races that were introduced so far.

Humanoid and Demi-Human races could not produce offspring together. However, mating between humanoid races like humans and elves is possible according to the Elf King. Contrary to the notion that procreation between a Humanoid and Demi-Human was said to be impossible, there was a legend that spoke of a human princess who did manage to get herself pregnant with the Goblin King's child.

Nonetheless, this meant that there is the probability for humanoid races such as humans to interbreed with other non-human beings is not entirely unattainable after all. Depending on the sorts of Demi-Human and Heteromorphic races out there, a human/humanoid should be able to at least mate with one of them if possible.

In Xostya, there was no penalties for player killing Heteromorphs as they were "monsters" but penalties did affect those who killed Humanoids or Demi-Humans to varying degrees.
