Generic Slightly-Anime Fantasy Craft:Peoples
Aka beings you can play.
(For those of you reading at home: I'm flexible on applying Species/Talents to characters. This means things like orcs being able to take something without an Intelligence penalty if they want.)

Pan
All pan are one species supposedly descended from a mythical "first people".
Most Common
- Humans: Like we know, only with choice of anime hair and eye colors, and a desire not to live far from a body of water like a river, lake, or sea.
- Half-beasts: Anything from catgirls to full furries. They live anywhere irrespective of animal resemblance. Children can sometimes resemble an animal like neither of the parents or any ancestors. Most people consider "true" half-beasts to be the mammalian ones (and certain draconic and griffinoid ones) and lump reptilians/amphibians and avian types into their own groups.
Significantly Common minorities
- Elves: Anime style tall with long horizontally pointed ears humans. Characterized by liking to live in more extreme and isolated environments.
- Orcs: Come in three varieties: Tolkieneque northern ones with green skin; Warcraft western ones with red skin; and tall, lanky blue southern ones. When orcs of two different ethnicities have children the skin color mixes like light: green and red form yellow, red and blue form magenta, and blue and green form cyan.
- "Little people"/pech/halfling/dwarves/dwarfs/gnomes/goblins: If it's short and looks like a human it's one of these. Except goblins, who look weirder.
- Saurians: Reptilian/amphibian half-beasts.
- Winged-folk: Avian half-beasts.
- Centaurs: Includes many varieties of four-legged animal, not just horses. Since centaurs rarely breed except among their own kinds it's unknown whether they are a variety of half-beast or their own race.
- Merfolk: The kind with fish tails.
Minorities
- Giants/ogres: Look like giant humans, but have a wider array of skin colors and occasional elemental powers. Ogres are shorter giants with horns.
- Spider-centaurs: As with centaurs this is more an issue of breeding than race expression.
- Plant-people: They're plant-like, yet they are pan. No one knows how.
