New Humanity

New Humanity is the name given to the humans that came after the Empire committed genocide against Old Humanity, and they originate from seven human monarchs. Those seven monarchs lead a group of Bongani tribes that existed along the outskirts of the Empire to form three kingdoms.

Capabilities
New Humanity can use magic as well as any other race, but are limited in their physical capabilities when compared to other races in almost every aspect. Record Keepers speculate that this may have lead to the downfall of Old Humanity since humans were obsolete on an evolutionary scale.

New Humanity can, however, use elemental abilities to a certain degree that, unlike magic, doesn't require magical energy from the surroundings nor bodily energy from themselves. This has enabled them to prevent the past from occurring again. The exact elemental ability is determined by which of the original seven monarchs that specific human is descended from, and humans of mixed blood only ever inherit a single power.
