Minor races

Minor races on Verra include Giants, less reputable sects of Humans, Gnomes, and half-bloods of different races.

• The Tulnar are a combination of the four major races and many minor races that were left behind on Verra after the apocalypse.
• The Tulnar religion is a combination of religious beliefs of the major races as well as pagan beliefs of the minor races that evolved over time as they coexisted together in the Underrealm.

There are many minor races on Verra. Some of the minor races exist in makeshift villages or tribes if you will. Some of the major villages among the minor races are comprised primarily of the Giants, less reputable sects of Human, Gnomes, and Halflings. The Halflings are not Halflings in a traditional sense but actually half-bloods of different races. – Steven Sharif

Tulnar

Tulnar character model concept art of the three base influences.

The Tulnar society has more of a caste like system, where based on what physical features you show, based on where your ancestry and lineage lie between the races that came together to make the Tulnar, determines your order in that caste system to a degree. So when players get to create their characters and determine whether they are going to have heavy influences of reptilian, mammalian, humanoid; that's going to determine their reception from NPCs as well when they interact with those Tulnar PCs. – Steven Sharif

Underrealm concept art.

How will the Tulnar perceive their ancestors, the children's, children's, children, of their ancestors returning back to Verra? I think majority of the disposition is going to be, these are the descendants of those responsible for the tragedy that befell our world... And I think that you'll see a disparity between the younger Tulnar and the older Tulnar and their reception to those who are coming new. I think that's normal. I think that's expected. I think that creates an interesting tension; and I think that is a nice contextualization to some of the stories that might be told and interfacing between the Tulnar cultures and those of the returning descendants. – Steven Sharif

Tulnar (pronounced Tull-nar) is a playable race in Ashes of Creation. The (ancestors of) the Tulnar fled to the Underrealm to escape the Corruption that befell Verra. The Tulnar is a combination of four major races and many minor races that were left behind on Verra after the apocalypse.

They're a combination of the leftover races, not just the leftover major race populations, but the leftover minor races as well; and that's what gives them their attributes that are bestial, or reptilian, humanoid; and that players can use sliders to influence the visual representation of. But in a similar fashion, their cultural markers are also going to be a combination of different influences, so they're very differently constructed culture than what is found in the other eight races. – Steven Sharif

• Tulnar stands for "the forgotten".
• Tulnar are not restricted to the Underrealm (there are no factions).
• Tulnar eat many things!
• The Tulnar religion is a combination of religious beliefs of the major races as well as pagan beliefs of the minor races that evolved over time as they coexisted together in the Underrealm.
• The Tulnar are descendants of the Divine races. They have souls and these souls act as conduits for The Essence.
  • Tulnar are not a result of corruption.

Were the Tulnar a result of corruption in their creation, or was it purely a crossbreeding between the multiple minor and major races that existed in the Underrealm during the after the apocalypse? They are not a result of corruption. So there is no corruption that was that was taken into account during their creation. – Steven Sharif
