NPCs or players either fall into a race or are a mob (NPC only; players cannot be mobs). In the Aetheria Server, players could choose, and possibly change later on, their race. This data was carried over after the Crash. Most races have bonuses to certain areas, which can influence a player's choice, and can be used to predict NPC professions, as NPCs will generally specialize in things that their race gives bonuses to. There are certain exceptions, such as combat NPCs, but this rule generally applies otherwise.

All races are Humanoid type, having a max level of 100.

Race Racial Bonuses Description
Dark Dwarf Dwarven Fortitude— All dwarves attempt to resist twice any poison, disease, knockdown, or stun. However, this second attempt is made with a significant penalty.

Feytouched— Due to their fey heritage, dwarves resist spells at a slightly higher rate than average.

Stonecraft— +25% bonus to any crafting attempt with an item at least partially made of stone, gemstone, mushroom, or the meat of any monster or animal commonly found underground (including slimes, bats, and rats). Outside of this, a +10% bonus is applied to crafting attempts of weapons and armor of any metal.

Gem Affinity— Dark Dwarves may wear an additional accessory as long as it features gemstones.

Earthsense— Dwarves have an uncanny ability to detect unusual features in stone. They are treated as having the Scout ability of second power level with any stone features, allowing them to better detect cracks, traps, and secret buttons (or doors). They are also able to ascertain their current elevation when underground and may have a "feeling" whenever they're near a particularly large treasure horde, underground river, or cavern.

Enhanced Shadowsight— The eyes of a dwarf are similar in composition to a cat's eyes, and this provides twenty times the low light vision of a human.

Dark Dwarves, also known as Blue Dwarf, Low Dwarf and Underdwarf, are Dwarves who typically live in the Underworld, beneath the bedrock layer. Some of their kind are known to venture to the surface, those struck with wanderlust or a sense of adventure.

Iron Souls The Ironsouls are a race of redstone robots built by the Highborn. They are similar to the mobs of iron golems but these are a race. They are said to have feelings, and are more intelligent, almost like they have a soul. Which is probably where the term 'Ironsoul' was coined.
