Abitalians

Abitalians were originally creations of The Lord of Pain, who discovered a way to bind those spirits sent to him on the plane of Abital with a physical body. In this form, abitalians were little more than sentient zombies with very few memories of their previous lives, though they could act autonomously, which they would later prove. The Lord of Pain tortured the spirits under his care mercilessly, and he extended this to abitalians. Those that he didn't break grew to hate him. Eventually the time came when he called upon all abitalians to make up the majority of his invasion force during the Abital Invasion, and those that hated him saw an opportunity to get back at their tormentor. They abandoned his army, most of them simply fleeing the battle scene and hoping for a second chance at life, but some of them joined the opposition. The Giver looked upon those that rebelled (not just the ones fighting) against The Lord of Pain with a mixture of pity and pride, and after consulting with many of the other greater gods, decided to give to these rebels true life and gave each of them a bit of life essence and changed them slightly so that they were now a true breeding race. It was many centuries until abitalians were truely accepted in most places, but today they are looked upon as just another race living in the world.
