Barbarians

O utside the borders of Harn's civilized Kingdoms, there are the barbaric tribes of men. Harn has eighteen known barbarian nations, each with its own defined tribal range, culture, and customs. The tribal nations come from the same Jarin or Pharic stock who migrated to Harn long ago but remained barbarous or semi-civilized.

Most civilized Harnians look down upon tribesmen as backward and base, barely separate from animals. However, these tribesmen are often more morally upright and have more freedom and leisure time than civilized humans. Although they must spend much of their time sharpening spears and fletching arrows to continuously defend themselves from the dangers of their wilderness homes.

All Harnic tribes are hunter or fisher gatherers, though some practice primitive herding and agriculture. The tribes are semi-nomadic migrate across their territorial range every few years moving from one location to the next. They do not make permanent settlements, instead, they live in tents or build semi-permanent structures.
