Ritian

The Ritians (法儀族) are one of the Eight Good Races players can choose in Elder Tale.

Lore-wise, Ritians were one of the artificial races created by the Northtrilia Project to help in the fight against the alvs. Ritians, specifically, were created with immense magical power to serve as a replacement for the alvs.

Overview
It is clouded in mystery but is known for having high magical stats and for possessing large amounts of knowledge. Offsetting this is their comparatively low health. While ideal for min-maxing, few players chose to play Ritians because they're ill suited to any role other than the archetypal "glass cannon".

Along with Felinoids, Wolf Fangs, and Fox Tails, the Ritians were created to combat the Demi-Humans summoned by the Ruquinjé. Specifically, the Ritians were created to replace the Alvs, who had been wiped out by the other four main races. The tattoos they have on their bodies was the product of Alven technology that has now been lost; the tattoos have a multitude of abilities, ranging from protection to boosting attack power.

Earthling Ritians have very short lifespans and, like the race they were designed to replace, have a low birthrate, making them very rare. Of course, Adventurers do not have that issue, although there are still relatively few of them due to their low HP gimmick. Slowly but surely, they are becoming an extinct race.
