Humans
Soldiers. Merchants. Kings.
The mighty empires of mankind are testament to the adaptability of this race. They are the youngest of the Heirs, the most unpredictable, humans are never afraid to carve their own destiny and that of the worlds. From masters of fate to foolish peasants, humans have come to dominate much of Nordgard.
Solari
Two millenia ago this race began the conquests that would eventually lead to the largest empire mankind has ever forged. All men have heroes and villains, innovators and revolutionaries, lovers and zealots -- the solari people seem to like their larger than life.

A user on another board pointed out that I wasn't very specific in what I wanted critiqued.
I want impressions on balance. I specifically want that for the Alantari ability Dedicated, and advice on which to use. I would like help building a list of Bonus Feats the Shamalinan should get. I would also like an analysis of that race-- they are a bit complex.

The Forgotten
Stone carves water. Knife carves flesh. Blood carves soul. A Forgotten is an Abh that did not or could not undergo the Rites of Volition. Without that fundamental choice made to anchor them, the very failure attracts Sea'ch. Whispers of blood, bones, and tears fill the failure and most go mad with promised power. Power that they seize and yet still hunger for.
