Humans are the most well-rounded characters. Their starting Hit Points are high in comparison to the other races. Humans can use most all equipment and armor. They can carry up to eight items of choice. Humans do not rise in strength and level like the other playable races. They must "buy" their increase in the form of the HP200 or the HP400, Strength and Agility can be raised by purchasing Strong, and Agility. Humans are the most common of the races found on the continent. Their numbers gave been increasing due to their strength of arms. With the ability, they have been able to wrestle most of the land back from the invading monsters, but as of yet, have still been unable to discern the secrets of the Tower.
The Mutants are an interesting off-shoot of the Human race consisting of a cross between Humans and some of the older races of the world of the Continent. As playable characters, they tend to be physically weaker, possessing fewer HPs than their pure blooded Human counterparts. Mutants do not raise their abilities like the Humans. Mutant powers "mature" only through the rigors of questing. At a point the Mutant evolves into more powerful form. This evolution triggers latent powers locked deep inside the Mutant's genetic code. Suddenly gifted with new powers, and more HPs, the Mutant character becomes a more dominant force in the party. Mutants can carry up to four items, and once their powers are activated, they can no longer use their store-bought weapons. For all these reasons, and more, the Mutant offers many opportunities for achieving success.
Monsters come in many shapes and sizes. Some are creatures from the Continent's past, and some are newcomers from the Tower who have proven to be friendly. All have mastered the ability to communicate with man-like races and have even begun to co-exist with them. As playable characters, the monster character also has an individual method of growing stronger. The monster character gains strength by eating the specially seasoned meats carried by most creatures. When a monster character eats meat, it may transform into a beat of another form. It will have all the HP, and power of the beast. This means it could transform into a beast weaker than itself should it eat the meat of a weaker enemy. And of course, if it eats the meat of a more powerful monster, it thus becomes more powerful. Monsters starts with low HP, but some have strong attacks. Monsters cannot use items.
