The People of Glaeban

The Ten Tribes of the Goliath-80% Goliath, 15% Kalashtar, 5% other
Glaeban is a vast land of wilderness and the people who live there reflect that. The largest group of people are the Goliaths who live in tribes around the content. While not all the tribes are equal in strength and number, each brings something of importance to the greater whole of the tribes. Each tribe is self-governed, but the council ten make desicions that effect all the tribes.

This gains them public disfavor but anyone who has ever needed someone to be eliminated quietly and quickly has turned to this tribe.

The Druids of Twilght-Mixed Race
While the Goliath tribes make up the largest portion of the population, they are not the only tribal people to live there. The Druids of Twilight stand in oppostion of the Goliath tribes due to their religion of the Eternal Twlight. For the druids only believe that there are four dieites, Xan Yae, Bane, Shar, and Selûne, they also do not see Shar and Bane as evil gods nor Selûne and Xan Yae as good. To the druids these four represent life and its consatant struggle that every mortal must endure in his path to become balanced in Twilight. As for the other dieteis, they see them as interlopers and all who worship them as heritics. A majority of the Druids live in the Twisting Expanse where there knowledge of the land keeps them from being invaded, but there are other tribes scattered in the land.

The Atria Dynasty-98% Human
The people of Atria live next to Glaeben's largest lake and are a peaceful kingdom farmers, fishermen and soldiers. The people favor Xan Yae and her code of balance. Many monks have come and trained in the beautiful monestaries dedicated to her. Their political situation models the careful balance they follow with their trade deals and agreements with both the Goliath Tribes and the Twilight Druids. Atria is a safe zone, where neither side is allowed to conduct war and both are welcomed. This is maintaned by the powerful monks of Atria as well as a magical blessing by Xan Yae herself as the 'Ki' santcuary of Aerios.
