Hogfolk
The Hogfolk are a race of Hog-humanoids residing in the region of Dreagor. The Hogfolk are very tough race that can survive the harshest of climates. This is the reason they took up residence in Dreagor. They wanted a place away from politics where no one else could go. The Hogfolk are simple people, and want nothing more than to live out their days. A primary attribute of most Hogfolk is their apathy. The Hogfolk don’t really care most things, and find solace in the simple joys of life. Unfortunately for the Hogfolk, Dreagor already had some inhabitants, and they weren’t exactly friendly. The Hogfolk often get caught up in battles and wars with the Naga and Deathstalker because they have an unfortunate habit of getting their leader killed.

Culture
Major language groups and dialects
Hogfolk have developed their own language, known as Hoglish, and nearly all of them are taught it as a first or second language.
Culture and cultural heritage
Hogfolk don’t have much notable culture. They were in a few wars, had a technological breakthrough or two, but nothing particularly interesting. They have no style of doing things, no mannerisms or practices, in fact the only thing they do have is their language.
Shared customary codes and values
Most all Hogfolk are completely chill dudes, and don’t do anything bad, but sometimes they can be hired as grunts for the occasional drug cartel because if their physical strength and general lack of concern. But if a Hogfolk wanted to, they certainly could hurt someone. Hogfolk are born naturally built and sturdy, and they build muscle extremely easily. Some Hogfolk even grow tusks at later ages.
Common Etiquette rules
Hogfolk do not really care about etiquette, and have no common practices.
Common Dress code
Most male Hogfolk don’t bother to wear a shirt, instead opting for shorts or a kilt. Female Hogfolk wear a sash or wrap and a skirt.
Art & Architecture
Hogfolk prefer simplicity over complexity, and opt more towards dirt huts and stone cottages rather than grand buildings.
Common Taboos
To call a Hogfolk a “pig” is extremely offensive. No one really knows why, because hog and pig mean the same things.
