Evolution

Human ancestors evolved slowly over the last million years prior to the arrival of homo sapiens. Then, in just a few thousand years, man suddenly emerged as the uncontested ruler of his little planet. Some believe it was a minor natural evolution in their ability to articulate sounds, that acted as a spark in the development of their brains. Human mental capacity increased by tenfolds over a short period of time. And just as suddenly, evolution came to a halt again. In fact, man reached the peak of his civiliazation with just about the same brain, the same DNA, that he had when he first went from nomadic hunter-gatherer to steadfast agriculturalist. While parts of mankind would branch off, evolving as different human subspecies, humans on Kroyus have remained more or less the same for millions of years.

Description

Humans come in a great variety of physical appearances, While many of the ancient so-called ethnic racial varieties were mixed when technology made transportation and emigration across Kroyus trivial, different areas continued to develop minor physical characteristcs based on subtle regional varieties in environment and climate.

In addition to their appearance, some might argue that humans have an even greater range of differences in personalites, philosophies and ethics. Over the course of history, man has displayed both a stunning capacity for evil and an altruism unmatched in any sentient races.
