Editing Greyhawk Poland 2011 Campaign (section)

==Races Available for Player Characters==
Humans are more highly favoured to play and are given preference to any other race in the Flanaess.
Monsters, Orcs and Half-Orcs are definitely not player character types. These are hunted and unwelcome within the Flanaess.  

'''Half-Orcs''', those produced from the union of a Human female and an Orc male, are commonly the by-product of the rape of the human slave after the Orc has raided a Human settlement. Orcs capture females as sex slaves and are a mark of status within the Orc Tribe. These slaves are savagely and viciously maltreated and have a status beneath Orc females. Half-Orcs bred by the Orc Tribe inherit some Human advantages for the Orc such as increased size, emotional retardation and (some) higher intellect and are, therefore, considered more deadly shock troops - sent in the first waves of attacks against Orc enemies. Half-Orcs enjoy a higher status within an Orc society due to their ability to brutalize the smaller Orcs.

Any Half-Orc born within a Human settlement is quickly strangled at birth, sometimes forcably over the objections of its unwed/unwanted mother and by whomever is the local leader. Half-Orc offspring are a mark of shame to the mother's family and a danger to the entire community. They are highly likely to be mistreated outsiders; have an evil predisposition; and will have plenty of reason to enact revenge upon the world. Infancide is actually a blessing to a Half-Orc born outside an Orc society.

Some Half-Orcs do survive because they were born and lived alone (with their mothers) in seclusion. Their very survival means they have had no interaction with anyone outside their mother, and they do not seek out such interaction. A lonely Half-Orc will logically seek out other Orcs because of the elevated status it will enjoy until a bigger and meaner Half-Orc challenges it.  Such is its evil aligned nature.

===Demi-Human===
This category includes halfbreed Humans such as Half-Orcs and Half-Elves; the Fey creatures the Elves and the Gnomes; as well as "Halflings" (formally known as Hobbits) and Dwarves. Demi-Humans as separate species have divisions and within their races same as the Human race. Demi-Humans are detailed on another page. 

===Human===
Humans represent 80% of the total population of The Flannesse. 
Unlike the other races, Humans are not a unified race.  They break along many cultural and political divides throughout the world perhaps due to their greater numbers than with the other races of Mankind. More apt to war amongst themselves than with other races, Humans fight for land space and the expansion of resource wealth. In all The Flannesse, Humans are the most interested in the control of a wealth supply than any of the other races.

SOMETHING ABOUT HUMANS

====Human Racial Attitudes====
Human attitudes tend towards tolerance and acceptance of the Demi-Human races. Not surprisingly, perhaps, Humans prefer the Halfling races slightly more than those of the Dwarves or the Gnomes. This may be because Halflings are frequently slaves or servants to Human masters and display a characteristic easy-going demeanor. On their own, the small stature of a Halfling appears very unthreatening. With a short life-span of only 150 years on average, Humans could easily forget when Halflings were thought of quite differently in the wild, hunted, armed and in numbers. 

Half-Elves are more tolerated than Elves. Though the ''War Between The Races'' is long over, according to the time keeping of Human generations, the Elven nation is still considered with neutrality and distrust. This may be the carryover of Elven attitudes. The war is still very fresh in collective Elven memory and they treat Humans as an usurping race with great suspicion. However, the Dwarven people look upon Humankind with dispassion and suspicion as well, but Human attitudes treat them twice as warmly than the Elves. Perhaps because Dwarves live underground and the few topsiders who conduct trade are atypical of the average Dwarven attitude toward Humans. 

Even most surprising among Human attitudes is the lack of a clear preference for other Humans. This may be due to a combination of many factors but there is no one factor to correlate the attitudes that run from Preference to Antipathy. 

No surprise is the attitude of Hostility that Humans share with all Demi-Humans towards the Orc race and Half Orcs.
