Template:Tulnar

The Tulnar society has more of a caste like system, where based on what physical features you show, based on where your ancestry and lineage lie between the races that came together to make the Tulnar, kind of determines your order in that caste system to a degree. So when players get to create their characters and determine whether they are going to have heavy influences of reptilian, mammalian, humanoid; that's going to kind of determine their reception from NPCs as well when they interact with those Tulnar PCs.^[2] – Steven Sharif

Tulnar (pronounced Tull-nar^[3]^[4]) is a playable race in Ashes of Creation.^[5]^[6] The Tulnar fled to the Sottorealtà to escape the Corruption that befell Verra.^[7]

The Tulnar is a combination of four major races and many minor races that were left behind on Verra after the apocalypse.^[8]^[9]^[10]^[6]

They're a culmination of the leftover races, not just the leftover major race populations, but the leftover minor races as well; and that's what gives them their attributes that are bestial, or reptilian, humanoid; and that players can use sliders to influence the visual representation of. But in a similar fashion, their cultural markers are also going to be a culmination of different influences, so they're very differently constructed culture than what is found in the other eight races.^[8] – Steven Sharif

Tulnar stands for "the forgotten".^[6]
Tulnar are not restricted to the Sottorealtà (there are no factions).^[11]
Tulnar eat many things!^[12]
The Tulnar religion is a combination of religious beliefs of the major races as well as pagan beliefs of the minor races that evolved over time as they coexisted together in the Sottorealtà.^[13]
Tulnar are not a result of corruption.^[14]
The Tulnar have souls and these souls act as conduits for The Essence.^[15]
The Tulnar do not have avian characteristics. The sentient avian races (such as the Sladeborne) did not take refuge in the Sottorealtà.^[16]

Were the Tulnar a result of corruption in their creation, or was it purely a kind of you know crossbreeding between the multiple minor and major races that existed in the Underrealm during the after the apocalypse? They are not a result of corruption. So there is no corruption that was that was taken into account during their creation.^[14] – Steven Sharif
