==Races==
Krynn is home to its own unique assortment of races.

===Old Races===
When the gods were first creating the world, each of the alignment-based subpantheons created a single race, and from these races descend all of the other races of Krynn.

* [[Human]]s - Creations of the Gods of Neutrality. The most important race in Ansalon, by default. Not necessarily their rank in Krynn's other continents as will be [[retcon]]ned at Taladas.
* [[Elf|Elves]] - Creations of the Gods of Good. Despite this, they are constantly fucking things over for the world. Like in the [[Forgotten Realms]], there are multiple different species, most of which are ethnicities for specific races. Krynn is most notable on the elf-front for having [[Aquatic Elf|aquatic elves]] who both repeat the high elf/wood elf split internally and possess unique shapeshifting abilities.
* [[Ogre]]s - Creations of the Gods of Evil. However, these weren't the ugly, dumb, savage brutes we think of today, but basically giant evil blue elves. Their culture fell into decline, and they split into two races; modern "Low" Ogres, who are pretty much the same as ogres in other settings, and the [[Irda]], who renounced evil when their people began to degenerate and so have preserved their magical mary sue natures.

===Young Races===
Commonly called the Races of Chaos or the Graygem Races, because the largest result of these races appearing is generally tied to the influence of the Graygem of Chaos. Basically, any race that wasn't one of the original three races created by the gods - this includes aquatic elves, who actually mutated from the original elves at a later date.

* [[Tinker Gnome]]s - Humans cursed by [[Reorx]] into bumbling inventors.
* [[Dwarf|Dwarves]] - Tinker gnomes warped by the Graygem into stolid, doughty but conservative creatures.
* [[Kender]] - [[Halfling]]s if they were based on annoying sticky-fingered little brats instead of idealized English countryfolk. Warped from tinker gnome stock by the Graygem.
* [[Minotaur]]s - Ogres warped by the Graygem into humanoid bulls.
* [[Goblinoid]]s - [[Goblin]]s, [[Hobgoblin]]s and [[Bugbear]]s exist on Krynn, but their origin is little known.
* [[Centaur]]s - Believed to be human nomads or riders warped by the Graygem.
* [[Kyrie]] - Believed to be human bird-watchers warped by the Graygem.
* [[Phaethon]] - Elves with the blood of the god [[Habbakuk]], giving them fiery wings.
* [[Thanoi]] - Walruses warped into brutish humanoids by the Graygem.
* [[Ursoi]] - Polar bears warped into humanoids by the Graygem.
* [[Draconian]]s - Humanoid [[dragon]]s created by magically warping the unhatched offspring of [[Metallic Dragon]]s.
