This is being posted by me as a player, not a staff member. This is by no means a canon list, but I see a lot of race strength confusion among players and staff alike, so I decided to see if I could make a very simple way to keep a numbered scale that makes sense and shows some hierarchy of the strength of the races.
Having considered a simple 1-10 scale, this is what I’ve decided to use to keep race strengths straight in my head. A very simple numerical system that no one is obliged to regard, but keeps things relatively easy for comparison. This is a 1-10 numerical scale of the races which outlines their basic strengths at either extreme, without going into terrible specifics such as how much weight they can lift. This is pretty much my head canon for where each race would sit based on the lore.
Caparii - Given they have three very different sub races with different similarities to other races, this is the only race I’ll go more in depth with, they just match the closest next race according to lore.
Dwarves - 5-8 (They short but they stocky)
Elves - 3-5
Halflings - 2-4
Humans - 4-7
Makani - 3-5
Halfspawn - 5-8
Earthspawn - 7-10
Greylings - 2-4
Nakam - 4-7
In general, I think of things like vyres adding at least a +2 to the base. So if a human with a strength of 7 becomes a vyre, they’d go up to a 9. I’d say a Earth spirit blessed would go up +3 since they’re terrifically strong. (In any case I'm not putting anyone/thing over 10 and that's where the scale would stop)
