Race (fantasy)

A race is a population of humans distinguished from other populations. The most widely used racial categories are based on visible traits (especially skin color and facial features), genes, and self-identification. Conceptions of race, as well as specific racial groupings, vary by culture and time and are often controversial due to their impact on social identity and hence identity politics.

Genome are bodies created by the Terrans of Final Fantasy IX. They do have minds, but they have no souls. They exist to wait for when Terra takes over Gaia, and then the Terran souls will enter the Genome bodies. Garland, the caretaker of Terra, gave souls to 3 Genomes to speed up the takeover process: Kuja, Zidane, and Mikoto. Their tails, almost identical appearance, and soul-less nature make them into allusions to embryos: in its early stages, the human embryo has a tail and is identical to every other mammalian embry ...

The Lunarians are a race of human-like wizards in Final Fantasy IV. They came from the planet between Mars and Jupiter, which was destroyed and became the asteroid belt. Sometimes, they are identified by a moon-shape crest on their foreheads. They created Earth's second moon, where they sleep until they believe the time is right for Earthlings and Lunarians to co-exist in harmony. The only known full-blood Lunarians are FuSoYa - the guardian of the Lunarians, and Zemus - a restless Lunarian who plans on destroying life o ...

The Elvaan are a fictional humanoid race inhabiting Vana'diel, the world of Final Fantasy XI. A race of proud warriors, they are the founders of two legendary orders of knights in the nation of San d'Oria. Their design is much like the elves from the works of J.R.R. Tolkien. However, in contrast to the Tolkien-esque Elves of many other fantasy-themed massively multiplayer games where the Elven race(s) are typically proficient mages and spellcasters and rather deficient melee fighters, the Elvaan of FFXI are first and foremost m ...

The Burmecians appear in Final Fantasy IX, where they are depicted as rat-like beings who live in Burmecia and Cleyra. Freya Crescent is a Burmecian. The Cleyrans live in a giant tree in the desert, which is protected by a sandstorm that has raged for 1,000 years; the Cleyrans split from the Burmecians when the latter started to appreciate "the art of war", and have had no contact with Burmecia in over 100 years. During the course of the game, the Burmecians are almost wiped out by successive attacks on their two main ci ...

They are separated by four sub-branches: Bangaa Ruga with yellow-brown skin, Bangaa Faa with bronze skin and shorter ears, Banga Bista with red-brown skin, and Bangaa Sanga with ash-colored skin, all in addition to breed mixes. Their intellect and manner of living is similar to that of the Humes, yet their incredible longevity sees them carry on almost twice as long. They hate to be called Lizards, considerin ...

The Cetra (Japanese: セトラ, Setora), also known as the Ancients (古代種, Kodai-shu), are mentioned frequently in Final Fantasy VII, although the only Ancient actually depicted in the game is Ifalna (shown left), mother of Aerith Gainsborough (right). They look identical to humans, but are magical in nature; in fact, humans were Cetra who forsook their migratory nature to form permanent settlements many centuries ago. Full-blooded Cetra are extinct; Aerith is half-Cetra, half-human. The being Jenova was mistaken for a Cetra by several Shin-Ra scientists.

The Galka are a fictional apelike humanoid race inhabiting Vana'diel, the world of Final Fantasy XI. These large, brutish humanoids are best in fighting professions because of their high strength and health points. Their capital city, located in the Altepa desert of Zepwell Island in the southwest corner of the Quon continent, fell to an attack from the Antica 6 centuries ago. The surviving Galka spread throughout Vana'diel, and a large number of them eventually settled in Bastok. The sheer strength of their powerful physiques ...

In Final Fantasy X and Final Fantasy X-2, the Ronso are a race of blue-furred lion-like humanoids who live on Mt. Gagazet, which they consider sacred. The males all have large white or black horns on their heads, which they are very proud of. Unity and pride are very important to the Ronso tribe. Losing a fight or one's horn is a great dishonor. Height is also important to the tribe, but a short stature is not viewed with as much contempt as a damaged horn (Kimahri Ronso is guilty of both offenses, having lost his horn after an argu ...

The Zilart are an ancient race that existed during the same time period as the Kuluu in Final Fantasy XI. They look similar to Humes (Humans) and are exceedingly intelligent. They possessed a trait known as the "whisper of the soul," which is most likely telepathy. An offshoot of the Zilart formed without this trait, known as the Kuluu, and were treated as lesser beings by the Zilart. (similar to the Enlightened Ones and the Earthbound from the SNES RPG Chrono Trigger). The Zilart's ultimate plan was to open a gateway to ...
