Jump to navigation Jump to search


The Humans of the Farseni Empire are based loosely on Moorish and Persian medieval cultures. They are known to be well educated and are mostly encountered as nomads and merchants in the Free Kingdoms. Once, they were a great empire with many lands under their rule, but they are now in decline. The Jal’Khandian were once the servants of the Farseni Empire and their war for freedom may have been the last nail in the coffin towards the empire’s final decline.

The Farseni Empire has long been rumored to be ruled by a dragon and many have heard the proclamations throughout the land, but none claim to have seen the emperor in the flesh.

Farseni have culturally accepted the freedoms won by the Jal’Khandians and have entered many trading agreements with them, but they have still not learned to deal well with the Ancient Races such as the Elves and Eldar. They simply are too foreign to them.

Farseni characters may not learn any Cleaving or Blunt Weapon skills other than Staff, as these items are seen as unclean.
