Although their exact origins are unknown, most races of Conliah share a common lineage which allows full interbreeding between them. This is true for Humans, Dwarves, Halflings, High Elves, Dark Elves, and Wood Elves. Their offspring have traits which are the average of the multiple racial backgrounds. Catfolk and Lizardfolk are exceptions, as biologically distinct species. The possibility of offspring between the races of Conliah and the races of the Uzvu Confederation are unknown at this point. Sentient beings of Cthonic origin are also incapable of producing offspring with mundane sentient beings.
