Underdali (underdɒli)

Underdali is the primary ethnicity of the Underdark. The main difference from Dali is that they value strength over charisma, and expression of power - for example murder - is seen as completely legal in their culture. Due to the culture's core values standing against common law, an entire nation has to follow the culture for its practicioners to live there by their traditional means.

Naming Traditions

Family names

Over centuries of living in close proximity the Underdali have adopted the naming traditions of Dali. However there is an "ancient way" of the Underdali where they name themselves after the most powerful thing or creature they have bested, for example: Dragonslayer Brekkar.
