feotakahariMakes even less sense than the idea of race IRL.
Aegir: seemingly anything aquatic except otters and turtles.
Anaty: musteloids. This is where otters go.
Anura: frogs.
Archosauria: crocodilians.
Aslan: lions.
Caprinae: sheep and goats.
Cautus: bunnies!
Cerato: rhinos.
Chimera: I don’t even know. May just be cultural?
Draco: western dragons, but not wyverns.
Durin: dwarves. From an in-universe perspective, these are people who have no distinguishing traits other than being short.
Elafia: true deer.
Elves: have never been shown onscreen. (I wonder if Team Rainbow could pass as these?)
Felines: cats, but not lions. Includes mongooses for some reason.
Forte: cows, but also camels for some reason.
Itra: musk deer.
Kirin: dragon-horse hybrids.
Kuranta: horses. Includes nightmares, pegasi, and unicorns.
Liberi: birds. Includes griffins and hippogriffs.
Lung: eastern dragons.
Lupo: wolves.
Manticore: lion-scorpion hybrids.
Oni: eastern demons.
Perro: dogs. Even the wiki doesn’t know why these are separate from wolves.
Petram: turtles. Or are they tortoises? Something with shells.
Pilosa: sloths.
Pythia: snakes.
Rebbah: hyenas. Come to think of it, isn’t this where the mongooses ought to be?
Sankta: angels. It seems like these were directly transformed by a Titan, and they can be transformed differently if the Titan gets pissed off.
Sarkaz: western demons. Includes Dracula-style vampires, German-style vampires, wendigos, banshees, gargoyles, goliaths, cyclopes, and Hungarian shapeshifting demons.
Savra: lizards, but also salamanders. (Shouldn’t those be with the frogs?)
Seaborn: Lovecraftian nightmares. These are connected to Aegir and can transform them into more Seaborn.
Titans: actual freaking gods.
Ursus: bears.
Vouvre: wyverns.
Vulpo: foxes, including nine-tailed.
Zalaks: rats, squirrels, and also possums for some unknowable reason.
??? #1: Nue are apparently a race, but non-nue have no idea what race they are.
??? #2: whatever the Doctor is.
??? #3: whatever Yith is.
??? #4: actual freaking other-dimensional demons. Even more corruptive than the Seaborn. Seemingly unrelated to the Titans.
