-Cast of Characters and Codex-

Welcome to the codex! With any luck, you shouldn't need to read this at any point; the pertinent information should be able to be gleaned from the chapters and character descriptions. But it is here, if you are like me and like a little worldbuilding in your poorly written caveman erotica. Enjoy!

Spoilers ahead, maybe?

Rok

You are a barbarian of the northern tribes, and in many ways a paragon of the clan. Well over six feet tall and heavily muscled, you are a dangerous enemy.

Kali

Your sister and most loyal follower. Almost six feet tall, graceful and strong, with short black hair tied into a small tail to keep out of her eyes.

The Mountain Clans

The northern mountains are a harsh place, and the people who settled there became harsh in its image. Mountain tribe culture revolves around a struggle for dominance, whether against neighboring clans and tribes, or hunting the dangerous mammoths, sabre-toothed tigers, and large wolves that are unique to the freezing climate.

An adult mountain clansman will often stand six feet or more and make formidable warriors. They usually have darker hair and eyes, and wear clothes and weapons fashioned from the hide and bones of the large mammals that have developed there.

The Sheep Tribe

A pastoral people of the central grasslands, who have learned the basics of sheparding primal versions of goats and sheep. They are a gentle tribe, amd their easy access to food has made them soft. They are often easy targets of their more warlike neighbors and large predators. They prefer running and hiding to standing and fighting.

A typical adult member of the sheep tribe will stand between 5'6" and 6" tall, have hair spanning from blonde to brunette, and blue or brown eyes.

The Monkey Tribe

The southern jungles are hot, humid, and overrun with strange wildlife. Massive insects, giant lizards, and other strange beasts prowl the dense trees and rivers. The Monkey Tribe has adapted by living high in the trees and becoming the best trackers and scouts in the Primal Lands, able to find and avoid the beasts hunting them, or turning the tables to spring ambushes during hunts.

An adult monkey tribesman stands around 5'5" tall, with a wiry frame. They also have developed powerful hands and uniquely flexible feet to scamper up and down the trees they make their homes.
