Dragon Dice - The Races

The Races

Each of the races of Dragon Dice has unique icons representing the basic action types - for instance Missile is a bow for Coral Elves, a slingshot for Goblins, and a flintlock pistol for Lava Elves. Each race also has access to different special icons on their rare or monster units. Beginning with Firewalkers, each later race also had unique spells using their magic color that only they could cast.

• Coral Elves (blue and green) are peaceable sea-dwelling elves who travel in flying "coral ships".
• Dwarves (red and gold) are stalwart warriors with horned helmets, two-headed axes and shields.
• Goblins (gold and black) are disgusting, ravenous creatures who ride wolves or leopards and cast curses.
• Lava Elves (red and black) are fierce death-mages who wield pistols and rapiers.
• Amazons (ivory with purple icons), the game's only humans, cast magic based on the terrain they're stationed at. (Per Chuck Pint, President of SFR, Amazons are WHITE units, NOT IVORY)
• Firewalkers (blue and red) are warriors from the sun who flew to Esfah to join its battles for sport.
• Undead (black and ivory with green icons), the reanimated dead, can use only death magic.
• Ferals (gold and blue) are various races of humanoid beasts or birds who fight with stone knives.
• Swamp Stalkers (green and black) are hideous snake-people who mutate other races into themselves.
• Frostwings (black and blue) are furry flying creatures with an affinity for ice. (As the last TSR-published "kicker" pack, Frostwings were underprinted and have become atypically rare.)
• Scalders (red and green), the only "kicker" produced by Wizards of the Coast before the game's production ceased, are twisted, malicious faeries and can harm those who attack them.
• Treefolk (gold and green) were printed by SFR after they acquired the abandoned licence. As they use the last unique combination of the game's five colors, additional multi-colour races are unlikely.
• Eldarim are the original race of Esfah, and are represented by single colour promo dice called Champions, worth four health each. In 2009, SFR released a new expansion called "Acolytes of Eldarim," single colour units of one to three health who have given up their racial heritage to learn from the Eldarim Champions. This "kicker" includes a new class of unit, the Shield Bearer.

SFR discussed plans to produce a set of ivory-and-colored dice (in the four colors other than black) known as "Unearthly", a race of elemental beings, but as of 2008 this plan seems to have been abandoned. (SFR HAS produced units that are ivory and color. These are the Eldarim.)
