Foundling

A foundling refers to any creature in the realm of Godai that, instead of being born, was found or otherwise appeared in the realm. Foundlings most often include members of the humanoid races (humans, tieflings, elves, dwarves, orcs, gnolls, and so on), but can also include monsters and beasts, albeit in rarer degrees.

Little is known about the circumstances regarding foundlings' origins in Godai. In Anyotkim, the region of Godai classically associated with the element of Earth, foundlings are incredibly common, indeed being the standard means of population grown within the region as birth and traditional means of reproduction is extremely uncommon. In Jaanpyr, the region associated with the element of Air, foundlings are incredibly rare, and their existence is something of a taboo amongst the people of that region.
