Races

A Race is the first of the three classifications used by the Magic Council to catalogue the various creatures that inhabit the world. The definition of a race is "a group of creatures related by a common ancestry that has sufficient intelligence to understand the laws of the magical community and to take part in shaping those laws". The current definition was laid down by the Head of Council Aoi Rei.

Non-Magical Races
Non-Magical Races are defined as "creatures who are incapable of retaining any magical properties or performing any supernatural feats". The current definition was laid down by the Justiciar of the International Order of Races.

These creatures are typically born to two non-magical parents and are incapable of performing any magic and lack any supernatural features, abilities or skills. Although, most non-magical races are the offspring of two non-magical parents, the offspring of two magical creatures can result in the birth of a Lag.
