The Beast Clans

The beast clans is a general term referring to all the clans living on the Great Grassland. The Beast clans are made up of a number of races, they all have elements that relate to some animals. The clans are not united under a single leadership. While there are occasional feuds between the clans they mostly avoid all out infighting. It's more important to save their energy to ward off the Lakeland Hegemony of Ryis slave raids from the south and the "research" teams from the west. The one time the different clans come together is during the month of chaos. The wounded among the clans gather in a meeting place and journey to the shrine of ancestors. The location of this shine is a closely guarded secret from outsiders. Nobody outside knows how, but when the wounded return from the shrine they are healed. During the winter months the clans gather with the others of their kind to their winter homes (which is the points marked on the map as normally the clans are nomadic) The Great Grassland is also home to massive insects. Many of these are hunted for food. A major export is oil collected from the giant fire beetle, it makes for long lasting lamp oil or and explosive it used carelessly.
Primarily beastial there are some non-beast creatures.
