fatal

Light elves are not lecherous, like dark elves.
Yet, their mating ritual is odd because it includes
music. When a female intends to get pregnant, she
plays an improvised melody on a flute during mating.
More attention seems to be devoted to the
melody than the act of mating. Later, the melody is
recalled, interpreted, and used to foretell the fate of
the child.
Elves combine the following types of government:
aristocracy, monarchy, and pedocracy.
Although heritage is valued, the elven version of
pedocracy places more importance on Wisdom. The
demonstrated Wisdom of an elf is used often to
determine their social class and occupation.
Human
Humans congregate into communities that
range in size from hamlets to the largest cities. Most
humans are corrupt and value money and power
over all else. For these reasons, human societies have
slaves and peasants, in addition to free characters
such as serfs, nobility, and royalty. Slaves are exploited.
The most common slaves are other humans,
though anakim and other slaves are also numerous.
Peasants do not live in towns and cities,
but only rural communities such as hamlets and villages.
Humans are ruled by a king and queen. The
king is assisted by a hierarchy of lesser royalty including
dukes, barons, and lords; female equivalents
also exist. Human society is patriarchal, since their
king is male and their sovereign ruler. Males have
emerged naturally as the dominating gender of all
successful human societies.
Humans are likely to try any type of government.
Modern governments tend to involve the
following: bureaucracy, communism, feudality, monarchy,
and republic.

Kobold
The only race more populous than kobolds
is humans. Kobolds value freedom, power, and laziness.
For this reason, a large portion of kobold
society is slaves. Kobolds are ruled by a king and
queen, and their dukes and duchesses. Each kobold
squabbles for more power, then abuses those beneath
them with less. Kobold society is patriarchal,
since their king is male and their sovereign ruler.
Males have emerged naturally as the dominating
gender of all successful kobold societies.
Kobolds have a complicated system of slavery
that includes rituals and customs. All female
slaves must wear a collar that locks upon closing
and may only be opened by cutting it off. Each
male kobold who is a soldier usually has several
kobold slaves who are female, petite, and perform
many duties including sexual gratification. When a
male kobold soldier is in a position to take a female
kobold as a slave, she may get into the position of
submission, which is to kneel before her new master
with her back straight and head hanging low in
front of her. During sex, males despise any sexual
position in which the female is above the male. In
fact, the sexual position known as kobold-style consists
of the male entering the female from behind.
In kobold-style, the female is on her knees with vagina
exposed and back arched, while the male both
penetrates and chokes her from behind. The goal
is to bring the female close to unconsciousness and
cause her to orgasm from his dominance and her
lack of breath.
Because the greatest passions in kobold society
are mining for silver and collecting slaves,
kobolds often organize raids on human caravans at
night that they suspect are transporting slaves. Since
humans know that kobolds are experts at underground
traps, humans are reluctant to enter kobold
mines. Kobolds are unaffected by the dangerous
fumes in silver mines.
Communities occur near mines that have
concentrations of silver and crustaceans. The spores
of various mushrooms grow plentifully around
kobold communities.
Kobolds combine the following types of
government: confederacy, hierarchy, and monarchy.
