You can choose from six races that split into a number of sub-races. The choice of race influences the attributes of the character, which in turn sub-race brings exclusive special abilities with it.

A fire-god Similarly, for example, cause a fire shell around his body, which increases the damage reduction and enemies in close combat inflicts damage. A nature-god Similar receives a bonus to power, constitution and dexterity when his stamina drops below 50 percent.
