Editing Pelinore (section)

==Peoples of Pelinore==
For the most part, Pelinore is fairly bog-standard in its races, which are based on the iconic [[Advanced Dungeons & Dragons]] lineup - there's nothing really unusual here, compared to the likes of [[Dragonlance]] or [[Mystara]]; [[human]]s, [[elf|elves]], [[dwarf|dwarves]], [[gnome]]s, [[halfling]]s, [[Half-Elf|half-elves]] and [[Half-Orc|half-orcs]] abound.

That said, having come out for 1st edition means that there are some notes for the presence of odder races as well; a number of [[Half-Ogre]]s and even a single half-[[drow]] appear in Pelinore canon as inhabitants of the City League.

The "mountains" of the area surrounding the City League and Cerwyn County are really high moors and desolate, heather-covered peaks, home to small clans of humanoids - [[goblin]]s, [[hobgoblin]]s, [[gnoll]]s, [[orc]]s, [[kobold]]s and [[bugbear]]s, predominantly.

One of the more unusual aspects of Pelinore is that it's the only old-school D&D setting where the [[Aquatic Elf|aquatic elves]] are the most important elfin race in terms of their contribution to setting lore, as they basically provoked a great conflict between the gods. It also arguably created the idea of a great racial enmity between aquatic elves and [[sahuagin]]. Said Sahuagin are also the ancestors of the Kobolds, as many years prior a number of Sahuagin adapted to living on land but degenerated from living in caves into Kobolds.
