Actually I just want us to be a civ of proud warrior race guys who use nature magic to enhance our natural capabilities (and make it genetic) so that we can just punch through said magical power armor.

I think Daemin can get super powered warrior race guys too by interbreeding with some of the magical superbeings. Who knows, maybe Dragons sleep around a lot in this setting too?
Best of both worlds!

In this setting, there is no interspecies breeding. Now, it's possible that, at some point in the future, you can modify a person to emulate another species, but it's highly unlikely to be genetic.

Name:
Gender:
[]male
[]female
Martial: you are good at combat and tactics.
Intrigue: you are deceptive and sneaky.
Diplomacy: how persuasive and understanding you are.
Learning: how much you know and want to know.
Stewardship: you can manage a city well.
Piety: how much faith you put in the earth and nature.
The Clans of Ubren live all over, amongst the trees, in the mountains, and even underground. Where does yours live?
[]Treetops: The nomadic clans of Ubren walk through the treetops, the complicated tangle of branches serving as roads and paths, letting them move from place to place as the seasons pass. They know much of the land, as well as how to treat other, potentially hostile clans. Whenever they stop by another clan, they do their best to benefit as much as they can without angering their hosts. As a result, they have a somewhat justified reputation of being silver tongued and quick fingered. +3 Intrigue, +3 Diplomacy, familiarity with Ubren's landscape and clans.
[]Tunnels: Every clan knows of the artificial tunnels beneath Ubren. An extensive network that no one knows the origins of, it is filled with the relics of an ancient civilization. The more reclusive of Ubren's clans make these pathways and grottos their own. While they do live in the sun and hunt in the forest, to them it is the land below that holds true value. Scavenging tomes and artifacts, these clans prize knowledge. They also have encountered other subterranean races, such as the paranoid dwarves and the rat-like Ra'chem. Conflict has arisen between them, on occasion, but by and large they avoid outsiders. +3 Learning, +3 Martial, knowledge of Ubren's tunnels as well as its subterranean inhabitants.
[]Mountains: In the mountains is safety, it is said. While not strictly true, it is certainly more stable within the mountains. The clans who live in them rely on the land to give them sustenance, much more so than the other clans. Yet danger still lurks in the mountain passes, so crude fortifications and buildings guard their land. Their reliance on the land and trust in their traditions has made these clans much more pious, their worship and reverence of the land that much greater. +3 Stewardship, +3 Piety, better defended starting location.
Pick three personal traits.
Warborn: You were born with the magic of war raging in your veins. Many great heroes in the tales are warborn. Strong of body and will, Warborn rarely turn from a fight, and enhance their body through spells and energy drawn from the land itself. +5 Martial, +2 Piety. Bonus to morale, large personal combat bonus. (counts as 2 traits)
Songweaver: You were born with the magic of life singing in your veins. Songweavers are healers and enchanters, weaving the power of wind and life into their allies. Their songs are the most beautiful in the world, and reflect well on your in other's minds. They are also renowned healers. +5 Diplomacy, +2 Piety. Large moral bonus, bonus to all diplomacy rolls, healer. (counts as 2 traits)
Beastwalker: You were born with the magic of nature roaring in your veins. You have always had an affinity for animals, and it was a surprise to few when you first shifted into an animal form. As a user of Ubren's most sacred magic, you are looked to for spiritual guidance. +5 Piety, +2 Martial. Bonus to all piety rolls, animal related actions available. (counts as 2 traits)
Nightflicker: You were born with the magic of shadows whispering in your veins. Nightflickers are the most mysterious of magic users. While still a Primal Magic, they are not nearly as obvious or direct as others, and much of their skills are unknown. You have always moved amongst the shadows, and while hidden you have learned things few others would. +5 Intrigue, +2 Learning. Large bonus to all intrigue rolls, you can better outwit your enemies. (counts as 2 traits)
Administrator: As a child you often followed your father around and learned from him the secrets of being a good leader. Skilled underlings. +3 Stewardship

Pious: You have always respected nature and the world beneath your feet. +3 Piety
Scholar: You love learning whatever you can +4 Learning, +2 Stewardship, -2 Intrigue, -2 Martial
Sneaky: Why take a straight path when a roundabout one will do more? +2 Intrigue, Small Intrigue Bonus
Suave: You are valued, know how to manipulate others, slay your enemies, and know how to look good doing it. +1 intrigue, +1 Martial, Fertility +10%

And I've already corrected myself. I was thinking Genius, not Genetics. I'm tired and going to bed.

Let's *not* do an expy. Morg is nice, but still, let's stay reasonably original.
[X] Tunnels
I like the idea of the whole warren of tunnels being repaired and expanded into a massive unified civilization.
[X] Songweaver
[X] Architect
I like Songweaver (everyone likes us) and the other 'big' traits, I admit. Let's add in a bit of Stewardship and some time and cost discounts.
Songweaver also is likely to give us 'healing' personal actions, which could be pretty important in a land infested with all kinds of toxins and diseases. And that big morale boost is nice.

The magic things are genetic, yes. Genetics means your kids are much more likely to be a magic user as well.
Yes.
Yeah, I know about genetics; I just wanted to know if the magic things would be something our kids could inherit.
Now that I know...
Well that does change things.
