Form: Kadrians are tall elf-like beings that are the dominant species and founders of the Eridani Imperium. Their skin tones range from fair to light brown, while their hair color varies, ranging from red to black. Eye color runs the gamut, blue, green, silver, and gold being the most common eye colors. Kadrians are an allogamous species with two distinct sexes, male and female.

Mating Rituals: Kadrians are fairly open about their sexuality and also frequent users of high-powered contraceptives. The most important aspect of Kadrian bonding, as with their cousins the Chimeri, is the 'bonding', which usually takes place during sexual relations and involves creating a spiritual bond between the male and female. Kadrians can mate with most humanoid species. Kadrian pregnancies last seven months.

Diet: Kadrians are omnivorous, but a lot of their meals revolve heavily around meat. Kadrians will frequently even eat meat that has rotted, such as hákarl, a delicacy.

Culture: Kadrian is highly egalitarian, with both men and women expected to fulfill all roles and be equally protective of their honor, which is their highest virtue. Kadrians are adrenaline junkies, often seeking adventure via raids and piracy. Because of their love of honor, Kadrians also tend to hold grudges, though many insults lead to an immediate duel.

Environment: Kadrians prefer to live primarily in temperate climes, especially those with long, heavy winters. But they are comfortable in subarctic tundra and high mountains.

Age: Kadrians are considered mature by 20 and live on average up to 500 years.

Name: Resdayni (Chimeri)

Form: Primary differences with Kadrians are gray skin, eyes and hair. They and Kadrians attribute this to a blessing of the Goddess Ashora when they moved to their new world, Resdayn.

Mating Rituals: As with Kadrians.

Diet: Similar to Kadrians, though with less interest in meat, rotten or otherwise.

Culture The Resdayni have a less honor-conscious society than their cousins, primarily shown in their willingness to allow the authorities to end interpersonal conflicts rather than immediately begin fighting. However, Resdayni aristocrats do maintain a so-called 'Assassin's Guild', the Morag Tong.

Environment: Resdayn has vast ash plains and large volcanoes, where the Resdayni prefer to reside.

Age: As with Kadrians.

Name: Humans (Black Numenoreans) (Ellanoreans)

Form: Slightly taller than human average, black hair and black eyes common

Mating Rituals: Much more conservative than Kadrians; courtship rituals are significant. In past times royal and aristocratic incest was common, but this has recently been banned, along with forced arranged marriages.

Diet: Human standard, though quite fond of seafood.

Culture: Aristocratic and elitist. Until the rise of Tar-Faeleth to the throne the aristocracy dominated everything, now a more egalitarian feeling is taking place. Very invested in naval and martial matters.

Environment: Fond of temperate and coastal environments. Ellanore itself has a major continent whose habitable areas are coastal and temperate with some islands scattered throughout the rest of the world.

Age: Before Kadrian technology and magic, the Ellanoreans lived up to 200 years at rare points, but now they regularly reach 500.
