Revision as of 21:12, 25 April 2020
While the vast majority of the Continent is inhabited by humanity, they share territory with a few non-humans and their relationships greatly varies. Among them stand out the all-female Kalar people, the resilient and crafty Poppins, and many tribes across the world. This page lists all of them, with other humanoid people. Not to be confused with Monsters and other non-humanoid creatures.
WARNING! There are unmarked Spoilers ahead. Beware.
Kalar
A sub-species of the Protagonist Race. They were created by the Sublime God Harmonitt as a means of restocking angels. As a result the Kalar age quickly in the first months of their life, are only composed of females, are nearly immortal and have eternal youth. However their relations with humans are quite rocky, because they tend to get killed for their crystals, which are quite valuable and useful in magic crafting. This causes them to create a safe haven for their race called Pencilcow, located in the Crystal Forest, where nearly every Kalar lives.
- Curse: Their main power to fight their enemies and protect their village is to inflict various curses on their attackers.
- Curtains Match the Window: Blue eyes along with blue hair.

Kalar Royalty
Pastel Kalar
The current Queen of the Kalar. She didn't want and wasn't originally meant to be the queen, but after the death of her two older sisters, she was was forced to take the role. After becoming queen, she was supposed to go through the impregnation ceremony to create a heir, but she ended up raped by Rance which caused her to get pregnant with his child instead. She holds a grudge over this and ends up cursing him with the Morurun Curse, which forces him to look for women with a level of 35 and above to have sex with (and they will be reset to level 1 if he does).

Modern Kalar
The Kalar Queen of GI0920 to LP0001 and the mother of Pastel and Sakura. A woman filled with kindness and tenderness which also caused her to secretly break the rules by letting many captured men go alive. While she lacked the assertiveness and optimal personality to be a queen, she was still a respected ruler. In her lifetime she gave birth to a stunning amount of 50 children through the Kalar Impregnation Ceremony.

The Kalar Queen of GI810 to GI0920 and the mother of Modern. She's the one who instituted most of the rules of Kalar society as it exists today.
- Does Not Like Men: She hates men, seeing them as low, sub-Kalar beings. During her reign she forbade sex for pleasure and instituted the practice of enslaving men purely for reproduction. She also developed the Impregnation Ceremony to allow Kalar to get pregnant without having sex.

Kalar Villagers
Aegis Kalar

Her character was eventually retconned as Aegis Kalar in Rance Quest.
- Ascend to a Higher Plane of Existence: If Rance keeps his word of not sending her into fights and doesn't sleep with her, she eventually transforms into an Angel and quits his army.
- Our Demons Are Different: On the other hand, if she's sent into battle too much, she transforms into a Devil.
- Sex for Services: Allows Rance to have sex with her if he succeeds at turning her into an Angel.
Horus
The Horus are a race of extraterrestrial lifeforms whose goals are to find and colonize planets for their race after their own planet the "mother star" became a desolate wasteland as a result of their high energy use. A colony is comprised of 10,000 individuals led by a queen. One of those colonies, specifically colony vessel F-3Q45 crash landed into the deadly land of Siberia, located northernmost in the Continent, during the era of Abel, presently located in Helman. However, the colony was nearly wiped out by the Monster Army lead by Abel which caused their numbers to dwindle to the 1000 left cryogenically asleep. Out of amusement the Archfiend turned their engineer Meglass into one of his Fiends. This caused the remaining colony left in slumber until the year of LP0007 when they were found and awakened by the adventurer Rance and his companions. As thanks for their awakening, the colony fought alongside the humans in the 2nd Fiend War and instead of killing them all and colonizing the Continent, they instead lived peacefully with the humans and became one of their sub-species.
Queen Terra Horus
The leader of the Horus on the Continent, she was frozen in stasis before being released by Rance and his party in Rance X.
- I Choose to Stay: Upon making contact with the rest of her people, they indicated a desire to invade and conquer the Continent. She cut off the transmission without revealing her location, even knowing this would trap her colony forever.
- Klingons Love Shakespeare: She greatly enjoys human culture and likes living on the Continent so much she chooses not to reunite with her race.
Jhahlckas
About once every thousand years, a Horus is born with a mutation that transforms their body and turns them into violent killing machines. These are known as "Death Horus", and are greatly feared by their own kind. Jhahlckas is one such Death Horus, who was on the Horus ship that crashed into the Continent. He is one of the worst criminals the Horus have ever known.
- Blood Knight: Jhahlckas lives for slaughter and murder, and is described as having killed his own family with no hesitation or remorse.
- Extra Eyes: The two giant mantis eyes on his head are not typical of Horus, and are a sign of Death mutation.
- From Nobody to Nightmare: In his youth, Jhahlckas was just a kind, gentle creature. By the time his Death traits began to manifest, nobody saw him as any kind of threat.
Poppins
The Poppins are a sub-species of the current Protagonist Race Humanity. They were created by the Sublime God Roven-Pan as a backup in case humanity gets wiped out completely. As a result they live underground free from the conflicts on the surface of the Continent. They resemble small chibi humans that are around 60 cm average. This also causes their lifespan to be rather short with the majority of them dying when they become 20 years old. They are physically weaker than humans and lack the ability to use magic with only rare mutants that once born around 1000 years able to use it. In exchange for these weaknesses, they can survive extreme environmental conditions such as being immune to regular poisons and nuclear waste, live comfortably in temperatures within -100°C and 80°C and can even breathe in water and a vacuum. However they can still be killed by disease and other brutal ways. They are also crafty builders able to create machinery on par of that of Maria Custard, who is considered the greatest engineer on the Continent.

Genbu's Castle
Waka
A Youkai painting of the woman Genbu Castle was built to imprison. The original Waka has long since fled the Castle, but this painting houses her memories, at least up to the point she escaped. In Rance 5D, she is eventually able to transfer her mind into a life-sized doll of Waka, allowing her to move around freely.
- And I Must Scream: Life as a painting is pretty boring: Waka cannot move at all, and while she can speak, there aren't many people around to talk to. It's no surprise she abandons the painting for the doll.

Noriko
A youkai woman who runs a shop in Genbu's Castle. Rance is immediately taken with her and resolves to seduce her.

- Kick the Dog: Rance panics at the sight of her neck and flees in terror from her, and when she chases him, he kills her. Afterward he feels badly about what happened, one of the very few times Rance has been shown as feeling remorse for something he did.
- Woman Scorned: Rance freaks out upon seeing her neck lengthen, and she is hurt and furious because she thought Rance actually cared for her. This leads to her head chasing him all over the village.
- Youkai: A rokurokubi to be precise. She has a very long, rubbery neck... that can also detach from her body and fly around.
Oni Hag
A horrifically ugly giant hag that wanders the desert outside of Genbu's Castle. She's actually a Rare Gal Monster who devours humans for food, and is an exception to the rule of Gal Monsters generally being attractive.
- I'm a Humanitarian: Eats humans she comes across.
