Humans, also known as Homo Sapiens, were formerly one of the Intelligent Species on Earth. They live in the Forbidden Cities, which are restricted to elves unless permission is granted from the Council and/or are a Regent or higher in the Nobility. After humans supposedly violated the treaty, deciding to take over the world, the rest of the intelligent creatures decided to go into hiding. However, in Nightfall, Vespera was revealed to have experimented on humans to test their capabilities for violence. The humans had believed if they did not overthrow the elves, the elves would wipe out them out. When the elves found that the humans were plotting against them, they were forced into hiding. Elves have attempted to keep helping humans with the Human Assistance Program but chose to stop after the humans used elvin intelligence to help to create weapons. The Neverseen is known to want to force humans to live in a Sanctuary.
Sophie Foster's human family are Amy Foster (sister), William Foster (father), and Emma Foster (mother) or Natalie, Connor and Kate Freeman respectively.
Mr. Forkle acted as a human for twelve years as Sophie's neighbor. He was there to make sure everything was okay, develop Sophie's abilities, and to act as a fertility doctor.
Abilities and Characteristics[]
Humans are outdone by elves on most counts: they are less smart, less virtuous (for their societies are still rife with inequality, racism, sexism, murder, etc.), less beautiful, elegant and flexible. They lack any special Ability or Skill (like telekinesis, or even the ability to warm themselves and strengthen their muscles by sheer will). Their lifespans are much, much shorter as well.
However, unlike elves, humans minds are much more resilient when it comes to shattering. They can set guilt aside and resort to violence or other non-orthodox methods to protect their own interests, without turning mad. This ability is the main reason the antagonists, the Neverseen, think that humans should be studied and monitored, and that elves should learn to be more ruthless if they wish to remain at the head of the sentient world.
Humans have indeed shown to be crafty enough to survive and prosper even without elf intervention, to the point they are the most plentiful (formerly) intelligent species on the planet. For example, their approach to medicine, although not as evolved as elves’ yet, is revolutionary and the only thing that helps Sophie through her allergies.
Unlike elves, human can have green or brown eyes additionally to blue, still they have a smaller range of blue shades.
