Ok, total pre-noob question here, and I hope it doesn't offend anyone.
I haven't played Alliance yet, but with the help of Tieran and Kiersten (I can't remember her forum handle), I'll be giving it a try in the fall. I'm pretty excited, and I might be able to get my family to come as well.
Anyway, I'm probably going to play a human, but I've been wondering about the Biata. I've picked up that they are kind of avian, and maybe a martial race, but I'm not sure about the last part. Edit: It also seems like they're a popular race.
So my questions are: What are they all about, and what's the appeal? They honestly seem kind of bizarre to me, even as a former game designer and fantasy writer. Maybe if you guys can tell me a bit about their backstory or place in the world it will help me get them.
Thanks a lot.
