Humanoid

Humanoids are creatures who bear resemblance to humans, such as possessing opposable forelimbs, possessing opposable forelimbs, two eyes, the ability to walk on heels, and a brain found in the head. Of all the humanoids found on planet Earth, only humans are actually indigenous. The earliest non-humans to appear, according to most sources, were elves, approximately 35,000 years ago. It's certain that these bipeds found their way to Earth through a spontaneously opening gate in the Kodar Mountains, from an inner plane called the Outlands. Over the next 25,000 years, scattered gates opened in multiple locations for brief periods, most notably in the Sahel, the Kalahari, the Andes Mountains, and the Barrier Reef. It's possible that a gate as it opened was partly responsible for the sinking of Atlantis.

The earliest non-humans to appear — according to most sources — were elves, approximately 50 to 40 thousand years ago. It is certain that these bipeds found their way to earth through spontanteous-opening gate]] from an inner plane]] called the Outlands. It may perhaps have been more than one gate. Through the next 25,000 years, scattered gates opened in multiple locations for brief periods, most notably in the Sahel, the Kalahari, the Andes Mountains and the Barrier Reef. It is possible that an opening gate was partly responsible for the sinking of Atlantis.

Humanoids are also subdivided into generalised "races," such as demi-humans, orcish, goblinish and faeries. Orcish and goblinish humanoids are sometimes jointly called "cave races."
