Southwest Region: Olma Tribes

Olmacantincan is surrounded by several groups of freefolk who share their language. Like the city dwellers, the Olma freefolk integrate easily with other races. However, they tend to be more xenophobic regarding other tribes, and are pretty harsh with one another about hunting territory. Any Olma peoples will band together to defend against or gang up on the Balamali peoples.
The Bat tribe dwells in the Olmatic mountains, scattered on all sides of the city. They sometimes hunt in Macaw turf to the north. Their behaviour varies from band to band, some groups being quite helpful and others aggressive.
The Spider tribe is spread out through the entire jungle, but actually more unified than the geographically concentrated tribes due to a message relaying system that so far has been kept secret from outsiders.
The Anaconda tribe lives in the Balamal river basin, east of the Olmatics and south of Cuautilcan’s farmland. The north part of the basin is occupied by the Macaws. The Anacondas mostly stick to hunting and foraging but are known to rob river-travelling merchants and are often forced into conflict with their boisterous Balamali neighbours.
The Mantis tribe dominates the grasslands south of the jungle limit, where aridity replaces humidity. Its bands are an alliance of Human and Thri-Kreen in the north of their domain but become all Thri-Kreen in the south. Many of the all Thri-Kreen bands are hostile to the idea of co-existence with humans and often war with northern Mantis bands. When not at war with one another, the Mantis people enjoy assaulting Balamali settlements.
