Playable Species

The world of Merlot is teeming with life of all shapes and kinds. It's rich with places to go, things to see, and people to meet.
What species will you meet on your journey?
All new players can make one scarce character for free, and unlimited plentiful characters.
They must be all common, unless if you get a rarer MYO ticket item or trait essence.

Scarce Species

Scarce species are those of limited numbers, and are further regulated. These are similar to Closed Species, and cannot be made without a proper item, MYO, or permission. You can easily get one through participation, and you can have as many as you like provided you worked for them!
