Vals, almost by necessity, make up a very small portion of the human population. That said, also recall that val are functionally the "Noble Race" in the setting. As such, they are over represented in 'heroic' roles such as priest, knight, general, etc. As such, val'Mordane may make up less than 1% of the population, but maybe 20% of the Deathbringers. Similarly, val'Mordane may make up less than 1% of the population, but none of them are farmers or blacksmiths which skews the demographics somewhat.
That is what I thought. I assumed they are 80% of the leadership of the Deathbringers. But if they are only 20% of the total of the Deathbringers, than I am wondering about terming them as the predominant race, since it would seem that human is really the predominant race. Or maybe it just meant they are the predominant form of val in the organization. Not sure, which is why I thought I would ask. It made it sound like more than 50% of the organization was val'Mordane, which would surprise me.
