Rhenish

A collection of Human tribes that originate from the Rhen River Valley north of the Vunos Mountains in northwestern Ione. In the aftermath of the fall of the Rexan Empire more than a century ago, the Rhenish homeland split into three large duchies who now war with one another over control of the Rhen Valley.
