Editing Humans (section)

== Common Tendencies ==
Humans of Innworld have a strong tendency to form [[Nobility]] to rule their kind. Terandria, Rhir and Chandrar are well-known for their Human Kingdoms while Baleros and Southern Izril don't have such tendencies.

Humans of Northern Izril tend to settle outside of cities, sometimes in suburbs outside of city walls, and seek shelter inside the walls once that becomes necessary. This approach is vastly different from [[Drakes]], who don't settle outside of walls.<ref>[https://wanderinginn.com/2017/08/12/3-03/ Chapter 3.03]</ref>

According to the other species, like Centaurs, Lizardfolk, and Dullahans, Humans have an obsession with climbing things. They see a mountain and they want to climb it.<ref>[https://wanderinginn.com/2020/03/06/interlude-chocolate-alchemy/ Interlude – Chocolate Alchemy]</ref>

=== Crime ===
Humans have a reputation among other races to have stronger [[Crime in Innworld|criminal tendencies]]. Especially among [[Drakes]] and [[Gnolls]] they are easily associated with common theft, which may stem from the cultural memory of the Humans stealing Northern Izril from them.<ref name="IQD">[https://wanderinginn.com/2020/02/04/interlude-queens-and-dragons/ Interlude: Queens and Dragons]</ref>

Predominantly, Human cities have less effective [Guards] than Drake cities. Apprehending criminals of higher levels is a job given to [[Adventurers]] instead of City Watches which are generally of lower level and not seeking out conflict.<ref name="2.44">[https://wanderinginn.com/2017/07/15/2-37/ Chapter 2.44]</ref>

=== Sex Drive ===
It is well-known among most races, that Humans are not always averse to breeding with other races,<ref name="IQD" /> which is facilitated by fertility magic and potions. The result of those dalliances may result in Half-[[Trolls]] or [[Half-Giants]], but also in Humans that have Scales (interbreeding with Lizardfolk or Drakes).<ref name="ITTQ" /> Given that all other races also enjoy inter-species marriages and mixed children, the tendency of Humans to "mate with everything" may be overstated, especially since some Humans don't entertain the thought of having sex with other species.

''So far, the exact relation of Centaurs, Fraerlings, Minotaurs and Beastkin to the Human race have not been revealed. Given that all these races share humanoid attributes, they may originate from magically altered Humans.''

Interbreeding with [[Half-Elves]] and [[Goblins]] will not result in half-Human hybrids, but in pure Half-Elves and Goblins respectively. The reason for this is still unknown.

Conversely, all known [Nobles] of Terandria participate in a breeding program that results in bright (e.g. red, green, blue, and blonde) hair colors, which is how pureblood Humans are easy to recognize.<ref name="ITTQ">[https://wanderinginn.com/2019/11/09/interlude-the-titans-question/ Interlude - The Titan's Question]</ref>
