Common Customs, Traditions and Rituals

Some dreorish tribes, like Ghaywr and Qalaq practice Dreor sacrifices once every ten years. A warrior and a gatherer are selected by throwing the dices to be laid down on an altar and stabbed to death in the backs by the tribe at night when the children sleep. These tribes do this in remembrance of their ancestors, Hasif and Freiya's fate and a way to ease the bloodlust against other races.
The Dreorish tribe Fakhur had a bloodlust party in the middle of Madinat Albahr where this tribe invited other Dreorish tribes, like Mahjur into a gory gladiatorian war game to determen whose tribe has the strongest warriors.

Common Myths and Legends

A long time ago before recorded time, the Dreor tribes freely dwelled in Eldar. According to the legend, the first Dreor, Hasif, was a son of a human and a mermaid. He was a beautiful child, and he got green skin because of his mother's green hair and fish scales. But since some other mermaids were jealous, Hasif was cursed with terrible dark magic. Hasif killed his parents, only 7 years old, and were driven into the forests by the shinobi clan he once called home. He learned to live on his own, as a beast, a nameless fear.
Years later, when he was an adult, he encountered a nymph at the western seaside of the Eldar. This nymph was the first creature in Hasif life that was not afraid of him. He learned to come back to his senses again and trained to seek revenge. Revenge against the mermaid who cured him to be this tall, green monster, feared by any creature, and human.
The legend tells that Hasif were never able to revenge on the mermaid. He and the nymph Freiya became the ancestors to all Dreors. They got 18 children, every child became father or mother to each and every tribe of Dreors. The Curse of Dreor made even the female offspring with the nymphs dreors.
