Aquilai
They are also known as “The Fallen” or “The Cursed”. They tend to have blond hair and blue eyes, average about 6’ tall (women 5’8”), and about 180 lb. (women 130 lb.). They are natives of a long since fallen Ruglund Empire that had existed far to the west of the channel cities (an area now known as the “Forbidden Plains”). These people are now spread out throughout the world at the locations of former remote port cities of the ancient empire (these include: West Argentum, East Argentum (of the channel cities), Aquiladi, Aquinoch, Barengol, Pazzergrandes, and Veltinochin. There are also still a few of these peoples in the lands surrounding the Forbidden Plains (although very few, when the empire crumbled at it’s source, the “lesser slave races” rose up and massacred most of the Aquilai within the area), but they are shunned and hated there. For Rolemaster character generation purposes, they are considered to be High Men, although there are many descendents who claim the Aquilai lineage, who are in reality Mixed Men with Mariner or Urbanmen cultural upbringing (being cross bred with other human groups).
