Frontierian
Although most of the citizens call the tri-cities home, those that live in the other 90 percent of Aldervein are considered Frontierian.
When meeting a Frontierian it's easy to be put off by their abrasive nature. On first impression they seem weathered, though, and assurtive.
They understand the importance of community and believe that outsiders must earn their trust.
