Men encompass all races born from the Elf of Men's crafting.

Elves
Elves are the founding races of creation made by the True Elves to care for their realms.

These elves were the first inhabitants of Aboden, created to care for the sprites.
Elf of the Arcane
These elves were created to inhabit and care for each of the three arcane realms.

These races were created to carry information throughout the realms and to spy. They were very negatively effected by the Knowing.

Energies
Energies are being composed purely of energy. They are the sources of magic and cannot have contact with void and can be absorbed by gems. Users of their magic can often summon and/or control them.
Elementals
Elementals are the energies which hold Aboden together. they are led by the 10 Titans, one for each of the ten elements.
Arcane
Arcane energies flow from the three arcane realms into aboden. They are commenly summoned by practicers of the various magics. All three of the energies are (or in Ethereals case, were) led by three beings representing each domain. Archangels, Archdaemons, and Archstorms respectively.
Ethereal (extinct)
Gods
Gods are beings created and worshiped by the mortal races. Gods of sufficient power can create God spawns, energy beings manifested in the realms outside of their Ascension orb.
Psychic
Thoes who join the order of the Ascended and complete true initiation become beings of pure psychic energy (like phantoms).
Nature
Nature beings were born naturally (or perhaps chaotically) from the creations of The Elf of the Elements. The wood elves calmed them and from their wildness.
Astrology
Astrological beings reside in the Aether and maintain order in the sky.
Void
The void energies are those of death, brought to aboden by Necromancy.

Elementals
These races were created by Titans and Treants during the Genesis War.
