Warning: This page is not yet complete and will be constantly updated.
Players who have donated £5GBP or more to Elysium are welcome to request a custom race title. This page gives examples of which races are permitted and which are not, along with a brief explanation.
Please note, Elysium staff still reserve the right to refuse any custom race name without reason, even if it is not listed here.
Permitted Races
- Any race that matches the standard base-races.
- This is essentially a default race name but in aqua to show you have donated
- Any race that is a renamed version of the standard base-races e.g. Sorcerer or Lycan, etc.
- This includes having the base-race in a different language from English
- Races that are easily recognizable by doing a simple google search for that race
- These include preexisting races rather than simply a word in a dictionary
- Racenames in other languages
Not-Permitted Races
For more in-depth information, please refer to the Locked Races page of the wiki.
- Anything related to being a God or Deity
- God races can be considered to be unfair and overpowered.
- Also, keep in mind that if players wish to worship you by their own freewill (without force), they are allowed to do that, but you are not a God
- Any title
- Including 'King', 'Master', 'Duke',
- Any occupation instead of a race e.g. Adventurer, Mercenary, etc.
- Races must hint towards what your character is as a species or what they look like - not what they do for a living
- Arch may not be used as a prefix to your race e.g. Arch-Mage
- Having it as a prefix suggests supremacy over a race
- The following races are not allowed because they are considered too vague: "Humanoid" and "Unknown"
- Consider a more specific race, since this will avoid confusion for other players when in role-play
- The following races are not allowed because they conflict with Elysium lore: "Dragons", "Wraiths" and "Ancients"
- These races, if ever used in public role-play, are only for staff to use. Albeit, you can still role-play as these races as long as you do it privately and not in one of Elysiums public role-play areas
Permitted Races with Special Conditions
- Any sort of "Dragonborn" or "Dragonkin" e.g. Dragon Mage, Dragon Fox, Draconian, etc.
- The race must be a humanoid version which does not conflict with the Elysium lore (you cannot be a Dragon)
- Anything that only exists in within fiction such as Dungeons and Dragons, Anime, Fandoms, etc.
- It would be preferable if the race fits within the general Medieval setting of Elysium
- Any sort of "Demon" or "Angel" race
- Specifically for Demon races, it would be preferable for it to be a specific type, such as Fire Demon or Alp Demon
- "Succubus" and "Incubus"
- Due to the past misuse of these races from not knowing the actual age of players (to ensure that they meet the minimum age for ERP), as well as the general worldwide lore behind them, these races will only be given to players deemed mature enough to not abuse in role-play
