Sapiens (3.5e Race)
From D&D Wiki
They consider themselves a master race. Locked away in a great library these creatures had nothing but books to read. Once a diverse group of races, generations of breeding have mixed the individuality of the races together, thus creating something new. In the quest for knowledge and many arcane experiments, the Sapiens species has had little time for eating or drinking, much less physical exercise or sleep. Through the years the arcane experiments have augmented their outward appearance, and inner mind. Extremely beautiful, they are considered the fairest of all races. they are also considered one of the smartest and wisest, that being said they are a bit frail compared to other races. nonetheless they are very haughty, they believe they are best and flaunt it. but this isn't to say that they aren't kind. ; displayed elsewhere.
