Heirs to great Belharan Empire of ages past, humans have spread across the world in spite of their short lives. Theirs is a race that is ever expanding, ever growing and learning.

You're the youngest child of a noble family, with all the pampering and prestige that entails - not to mention training in arts of magic or battle to your hearts' content.
