Zlovs
The Zlovs are an ethnic group that primarily live in the far north on the continent of Kadrun, north of the Copper Hills and Gianthome Mountains and south of the Frozen Sea, and in particular in the Yarozlovic Principalities. The Zlovs are a hearty people who have lived in the harsh lands of the far north of Kadrun for hundreds of years in hundreds of small tribes. Over time these smaller tribes began to consolidate into large tribes until the time of Yaroslav the White Bear united the tribes by conquering other tribes in 982 6E and founding the Yarozlovid Dynasty.
After the death of the Yarozlov, his united Zlovic realm was divided up between his seven sons and the Yarozlovic Principalities were established.
They tend to have fair to tan skin with a variety of hair colors. They tend towards having lighter color eyes. Zlovs are very similar to ethnic Slavs in our world.
