Clan Cinder

Clan Cinder: The Flame Herders

Overview

Moving with the seasons across the northern plains of Rorestvia, Clan Cinder has cultivated a distinctive breed of flame-hued cattle unique to their territory. With approximately 350 members divided among several family groups, this nomadic clan follows traditional migration routes between Chegeg and the eastern borderlands. Their striking red-orange cattle and distinctive leather goods are instantly recognizable throughout Rorestvia.

Origins and History

The clan traces its origins to the early days of Rorestvia when a group of herders discovered a rare mutation in their cattle - a distinctive reddish-orange hide that seemed to glow in twilight. Over generations, they selectively bred for this trait while developing specialized techniques to work with the uniquely textured leather. During The Era of Endless Battles, their mobility allowed them to avoid the worst conflicts while supplying premium leather for military equipment.
