Editing Arcanis (section)

===Val===
The [[aasimar]] of Arcanis, the Val are a collection of human bloodlines who trace their lineage to the twelve gods of man, as their ancestors were chosen as mates by valinor ([[angel]]s) to father a superior race to serve as humanity's leaders and protectors. Of course, given that Arcanis is a [[Dark Fantasy]] setting, a lot of val have fallen... rather short of such lofty ideals, shall we say?

There are multiple distinct Val Bloodlines, representing which god/valinor they descend from.
* val'Abebi: Children of Althares, the God of Knowledge.
* Val'Assante: Children of Illiir, the Ruler of the Gods.
* val'Borda: Children of Cadic, the Lord of Shadows.
* val'Dellenov: Children of Saluwe, the Green Mother. Unique for their matriarchal culture.
* val'Emman: Children of Nier. One of two Nier-descended bloodlines, they've been almost wiped out by the val'Virdan.
* val'Holryn: Nobody knows what god created this bloodline.
* val'Inares: Children of Anshar, the Suffering Goddess.
* val'Ishi: Children of Beltine, the Gray Lady.
* val'Mehan: Children of Sarish, the God of Magic.
* val'Mordane: Children of Neroth, the Lord of Tombs.
* val'Ossan: Children of Yarris, the Lord of Waves.
* val'Sheem: Children of Larissa, the Divine Harlot.
* val'Tensen: Children of Hurrian.
* val'Virdan: Children of Nier.
