TERA Online Preview – Races

At launch, TERA Online will have six playable races. These are:

Aman – The Armani were once enslaved by Giants, most of which are now dead, value freedom and self-sacrifice and are committed to cooperation and unity. No longer ruled, they are powerful and ferocious fighters.

Baraka – The Baraka are decedents of the Giants and it is visible in their huge statue and physiques. They are an intelligent race and protectors of the ancient heritage and knowledge. They are also powerful fighters, especially when defending those weaker than them. Baraka is the only race where there is no male and female choice because the Baraka has no gender.

Castanic – After the death of their demon god, the Castanic have been treated with suspicion and suffered oppression and prejudice. Their strength and resourcefulness makes them ideal allies.

High Elves – High Elves are often considered to be arrogant and aloof. They denounced their gods a thousand years ago and now believe in cooperation between the races. High Elves are a proud race and are powerful keepers of tradition. Their knowledge gained over thousands of years of fighting makes them valuable allies and formidable foes.

Humans – Humans are considered exemplars of aspiration and vitality and use their valor and tenacity to attempt to stabilize the TERA world torn by war. The Human's seek a world of peace and prosperity for all races.

Popori – The Popori are powerful guardians of nature's balance and sense change in nature before other races do. Due to their small stature and odd behaviour, they are often underestimated in battle.
