Most rank and file human troops are unimpressive but many buff each other. The 'Inspire' ability is associated with humans and allows the weaker cards you play early to buff the more expensive cards played after. Humans are particularly adversarial to the Necrotic whom are made from human corpses.

Hex (or Hex: Shards of Fate) is an online CardBattleGame heavily influenced by MagicTheGathering. A lot of the game's mechanics are fairly similar to a traditional MMO; there are still guilds and dungeons and raids, but card games are used instead of combat.

The game has five colors of magic that correspond directly to their Magic the Gathering counterparts with slight differences. Diamond->White, Ruby->Red, Sapphire->Blue, Blood->Black, and Wild->Green.
Within the setting there are eight main races divided into two factions of four and numerous minor races, creatures, and machines. The two factions are the Ardent and the Underworld.
The races of the Ardent are:
* The Humans: Primarily represented with Diamond, Ruby, and Sapphire cards. In terms of society, humans are characterized by TheKingdom though there seem to be several nations. Most rank and file human troops are unimpressive but many buff each other. The 'Inspire' ability is associated with humans and allows the weaker cards you play early to buff the more expensive cards played after. Humans are particularly adversarial to the necromantic whom are made from human corpses.
* The Elves: Primarily represented with Wild and Ruby Cards. In terms of society, Elves are hedonistic with shades of GeniusDitz but are certainly no less warlike than the other races. Elves sport the ability to quickly gain both temporary and permanent mana to allow them to get larger threats out quicker. Many elf or elf related cards sport some extra effect based around playing cards that cost at least 5 mana or having troops that cost at least 5 mana in play. ElvesVsDwarves is in effect with the elves regarding the dwarves as heartless tree murderers.
* The Orcs: Primarily represented with Ruby and Blood cards. Orcs are definitely ProudWarriorRaceGuys and have Mayan/Aztec motifs to go with their combat centered religion. In terms of gameplay, orcs tend to be glass cannons with an AttackAttackAttack mentality who grow stronger as they attack. Orcs consider Vennen their arch enemies as they are similarly religious but with an opposing paradigm. The fact that Vennon like using (living) orcs to incubate their eggs certainly doesn't help.
* The Coyotle: Represented primarily Diamond, Sapphire, and Wild cards. The Coyotle are a nomadic race of coyote people (incase you couldn't guess by the name) with a Native American motif. Coyotle have a strong emphasis on improving the cards in their deck and hand (frequently with the 'Prophecy' ability) with a secondary emphasis on reusing cards after they've been improved. Coyotle also feature the most troops that can be played as a reaction allowing them to ambush enemies. The Coyotle find the Shin'Hare to be an evil imperialistic menace and a threat to their lifestyle.
The races of the Underworld are:
* The Necromantic: The necromantic are represented with all colors except Wild normally but have the strongest presence in Diamond and Blood. They are a race of sentient creatures created by inserting magic gems into human corpses. Individual necromantic do not seem to be reanimated versions of the former user of the corpse but apparently their power is somewhat determined by it (hence human kings are in particular demand). In terms of gameplay, Necromantic have immense flexibility in how they're used. The 'Shift' ability is associated with them and allows their troops to transfer their abilities to other troops. Their natural enemies are the Humans whom are both their supply of new recruits and 'irrationally' upset about their existence.
* The Dwarves: Represented primarily with Sapphire and Ruby cards. A single gender race of small men made out of stone driven by technical curiosity and a technocracy. Dwarves have the most artifact synergy of any race and in particular have synergy with 'robot' artifacts. The 'plans' artifacts are artifacts that can tap dwarves/robots to accumulate construction counters and turn into cards of much greater value than their original cost once they're accumulated enough. Dwarves regard elves as silly and don't seem to understand why they'd be upset by having half their forest burned down.
* The Vennen: Represented with Sapphire and Blood cards. A race of spider men fanatically devoted to their theocracy. The characteristic approach of the Vennen and Vennen decks is to stuff their adversaries deck full of 'spider eggs' and then milling their enemies decks. Whenever these eggs are revealed they turn into spider troops which the Vennen have immense synergy with. The Vennen find the orcs religion abhorrent but they find living orc bodies to make excellent egg incubators.
* The Shin'Hare: Represented with Blood and Wild cards. This race of anthropomorphic bunnies plays the role of the immense empire with a WeHaveReserves attitude and a Feudal Japanese aesthetic. Shin'Hare have the ability to generate immense quantities of weak troops and then either do mass buffs or sacrifice them for a benefit. The Shin'Hare dislike the individualist nature of Coyotle society but are even more embarrassed by their previous failure to conquer them.
