Vendhyan

Vendhyan societies are probably the most advanced outside of the West and Khitai and feature highly sophisticated systems of government and religion. Vendhyans tend to have light brown to mid-brown skin, straight black hair and large dark eyes. Vendhyan adventurers are almost always from the Kshatriya caste, the ancient warrior aristocracy of Vendhya.
Culture: The rulers of the golden kingdoms south of the Himelian Mountains are considered little short of divine and operate a caste system. Vendhya’s culture resembles that of the mythical India described in the Vedas.
Religion: Vendhyans tend to revere the mystical religion of Asura and believe in a heaven, a hell and the judgment of souls. Vendhya also has a well-developed practice of astrology, suggesting a strong belief in fate. Ascetic hermits dwell in caves on the borders of Vendhya, where they meditate on the mysteries of the world.
