The Four Winds

There are four kinds among the Ardri also known as the four winds.

They are the Mountain Clans, the Forest Clans, the Plains Clans , and the Bog Clans.

The plains-dwellers are the most peaceful of your kind. They reside in the frozen plains of the northwest that they may generally avoid predators like the Raghik. However, the harsh winds and permanently frozen grounds of the plains do not permit one to have a dwelling of any kind. In order to keep the first law the plains dwellers became the first beast tamers, and created a mutualistic relationship with the herds of mammoths in that place. At night the plains dwellers rest in the warm fur of the mammoth and are kept safe from the wind, in return those who rest with the mammoth protect it from the predatory dangers of that land.

The bog-dwellers are strange folk. They prefer the wet lands in the east near the seas despite the fact that the waters are frozen for at least half of the year. You don't really know much about them except that they like to tell stories and can keep mental records of nearly everything they see or hear.

The forest-dwellers are the oldest of the Clans. They are the most numerous as well, perhaps due to their attractive features or due to the fact that everything about them is fast. EVERYTHING. They move fast, they learn fast, and they change fast so it would make sense to you that they mate in a similar fashion.

The last of course are your kind the mountain-dwellers. Your kind have had to contend with some of the largest and most dangerous predators in Ardri lands. From the Raghik, to the Bristlebear, to the Cave Spiders, your kind has overcome impressive odds. Still, this lifestyle is likely why the mountain-dwellers are the least numerous of the kinds.
