Features
This mod is a WIP. Expect content to change and new features to be introduced, either as part of this mod, or future sister mods.

• 2 new civilizations consisting of variant species of human - these civilizations can be called the Caliphates and the Jarldoms. These humans vary biologically in small ways from each other and vanilla humans, and culturally the civilizations have too many differences to count, although neither are too extreme to get along with the other civilized vanilla races.
  
  NOTE: This mod is not a replacer; these new civilizations exist alongside vanilla human civilizations, and you may still play a normal game as dwarves.
  
  
• 1 new metal - Bloom steel. This alloy is made by the humans of the Jarldoms, using sand in place of the flux stone found in dwarven steel. This process makes it slightly weaker than dwarven steel (though still superior to other standard metals), however, it's also slightly more valuable, due to its beautiful patterns of imperfections.
  
  When playing as humans from the Jarldoms, pig iron and bloom steel can be made in a smelter much the same way that pig iron and steel are made by dwarves, except using one sand briquette in place of flux stone. Sand briquettes are made in a glass furnace at a rate of 2 blocks to 1 bag of sand, and do not require fuel to craft.
  
  
• Designed with playability in mind - Both new variant races of human are able to enter strange moods and martial trances, as well as work with candy (if you don't know what this means don't ask), and operate all essential and most basic roles and industries. The humans of the Jarldoms have access to a steel alternative and indoor farming, as well as most basic equipment types, making them very similar to playing dwarves; the humans of the Caliphate are intended to be more challenging, and much more limited than other types of human in available materials and item types, although with a few other small perks.
  
  
• More to come - Mod is fully playable in its current state, but future content is planned, including many new items and recipes.

Compatibilities
This mod is not compatible with any other mods that edit sprites for humans, dwarves, elves, goblins, or kobolds; this is because it adds a new weapon and armor material, and for this to display properly while equipped, the mod must overwrite the same files these mods overwrite.

There is a version made to support Creature Graphics Extended, see the top of this page.
