Humans

Humans are a bipedal sentient species from the planet known as Earth. One of the youngest sentient species currently known, humans have only been around for about a million years. Technologically speaking, their technologically advanced civilization has only been around for 200 years, ever since a period they called the Industrial Revolution.

Virtually unremarkable at first glance, humans have been discovered to be actually quite the capable magic users, and resist deterioration from magic using far better than other

Overview
In the 1910's, humans were contacted by representatives of the Boundless Union, claiming to uplift humanity in exchange for anything the Union desired from the young civilization. Of course, this ended up with most nation-states of the Earth surrendering their autonomy. Only a few various nations, including the Soviet Union, resisted the initial invasion.

In the 1980's, humans were among some of the first races to begin the Revolution, and formed a bulk of the fighting force. Their own knowledge of their planet and their weaponry greatly assisted the fledging pockets of rebels who were struggling to get a foothold, as well as the non-human rebels who have never even heard of a concept such as "rebellion" before. It was humans who taught them that concept.

Ever since the beginning of the 21st century, most humans have lived in the protected cities, shielded from their quickly darkening outside world. Several offshoots of humans now exist, including werewolves, vampires, humans who have uploaded their minds into AI, and various other subspecies.
