Factions

Barbarian :
The Tribes of the Barbarian lands are often Aggressive and Primitive, though its not that simple. While most of the tribes are from the various Giant-Kin races (Trolls, Orcs, Ogres, Cyclopes enslaved goblins and gobliniods), who invaded from the north, there are also Humans and other non-giant blooded humaniods who were banished there that banded together into tribes or ended up joining already established tribes.

Their religious beliefs tend to be more animist, nature spirits, elementals and the occasional Jinn are primary sources of worship and Shamanic Power. The Majority of the Giant-Kin Worship the Giant Pantheon if nothing else as Ancestors tho often as dieties.


 * Red Eye Tribe: The Tribe of Olgoth the Serpent, mostly made up of Orcs, Half-Orcs, and Humans, though other races exist in the tribe.

Desert Peoples:
The Barbarian Lands are a Desert that have Indigenous peoples that are Aggressive towards the Barbarian Tribes as their invasions destroyed much of their culture and lands, they are 'friendly' towards the factions that consider themselves 'civilized' though it often more of a 'Enemy of my Enemy is my Friend' situation and relations, while cordial, are often tense.


 * Desert Elves
 * Dessert Drow: A Rare Drow group who have left the worship of Lolth
 * Desert Dwarves

Noble Houses:
As often is the case with Nobles, intrigue and power grabs is often the every day of life for those who are born into these Families. Formal Training, Money, and century old treaties often hold the line of 'civilization' and is the main advantage against the must larger, but poorly equipped Barbarian Hordes. Feuds between Houses, even cross-race feuds are also common, and can result in interesting storylines and general character interation

The Fey-Touched Formian Hive:
