The original font of life was Jolinn, who seeded Avendar with its first single-celled organisms and set evolution in motion after the formation of its physical and metaphysical laws by Iandir. Ashur then contributed the concepts of entropy and death for Its own reasons, completing the world as we know it. As other gods arrived or came into being, many of them intervened in the course of various species' evolutions or even created new lifeforms wholesale; however, by and large, the gods seek to influence what already exists.
While sometimes referred to as "races," the different lineages of Avendar are well and truly different species. Each playable species has its own unique biology and anatomy. Some are divine creations or had their development guided by a god, others evolved from natural flora and fauna; most are some combination of the two. People of different species cannot interbreed to create offspring, but sex and relationships of all kinds happen frequently and are regarded neutrally at best, with varying attitudes depending on the culture.
