Volenic Human
Volenic Humans are the proud, resilient people of Tir Volen, a kingdom shaped by its rich history of warfare, magic, and exploration. Unlike the typical humans found across other regions of the multiverse, Volenics have adapted to the harsh climates and environments of their homeland, where mountainous terrains, dense forests, and unpredictable seas dominate. They have honed their skills in battle, magic, and craftsmanship, making them versatile, yet deeply rooted in their cultural heritage.
Descendants of the legendary King Prestor Valian I, Volenic Humans have inherited a sense of duty to protect their homeland. Known for their exceptional survival instincts, tactical minds, and mystical connection to the Severed River, Volenics are a dynamic race whose culture values honor, discipline, and the pursuit of excellence.

Resilient Spirit
Volenic Humans have survived countless trials, from the cold winds of the Jagged Crest Mountains to the roaring waters of the Severed. Their resilience is a testament to their strength and willpower.
You gain proficiency in the Survival skill. You also have advantage on saving throws against Exhaustion and Cold Weather Effects.
Cultural Flexibility
While rooted in their traditions, Volenic Humans pride themselves on their ability to adapt. Whether it's in warfare, politics, or magic, they learn quickly and excel in many fields.
You gain proficiency in one additional tool, weapon, or skill of your choice. Additionally, once per long rest, you may add your proficiency bonus to a saving throw you are not proficient in. This must be decided after you have already rolled the dice, but before the DM has informed you of your outcome.
Arcane Attunement
The Severed River that flows through Tir Volen has granted many of its people an affinity for magic. Volenic Humans have a natural sensitivity to the arcane, with many choosing to hone this talent in the Arcane Collegium or the magical circles of their homeland.
You know one cantrip of your choice from the Wizard or Sorcerer spell list. Intelligence, Wisdom, or Charisma is your spellcasting ability for these spells when you cast them with this trait (choose when you select this race). Also, once per long rest, you can cast Detect Magic without using a spell slot.
Tactical Brilliance
Volenic Humans are raised with a strong understanding of military tactics and combat strategy. They are quick to analyze a situation and exploit weaknesses in their enemies. When you roll initiative, you can choose to instead roll with Advantage. You can use this feature a number of times equal to your proficiency bonus, regaining all uses after a long rest.
