Jhereg
The Jhereg are a people drawn together by their shared belief in the unity of the nation and willingness to use all their ingenuity and wisdom to help safeguard the land.
The hostile land of Siberia is where the Jhereg make their home, from deadly marshes to vast unforgiving deserts the Jhereg people not only survive, but prosper. First known as the Children of Fate, the Jhereg people are guided and bound in unity by the Jhereg Spirit; a great entity powered by the land and the will of its people, both those living and those who have gone before us.
Ever the great mix of societies, Siberia can boast of both great city-states where deals are struck with wit and guile and magical knowledge reigns supreme, to thriving tribal civilisations, steeped in ancient tradition, lore and legend. The Jhereg Empire believes in the ‘Great Freedom,’ where no culture, religion or belief is persecuted and will go to any length to protect their own; to be Jhereg is to never be alone.
Powerful wizards ply their trade across the land, divining great mysteries and unlocking the workings of the arcane, or creating items of power to bolster the warhost, known as the Dragonwing, who in turn protect the realm from perils both near and far. People from all walks of life come to the call of the Jhereg Spirit, strength and ferocity in their heart; their fighting forces bolstered by potions and skilfully crafted tools of war. Clever traders curate the nation's wealth and expand their treasuries with strange magical items, while diplomats make peace with the nations around them who often misunderstand the Jhereg ways. Though sometimes mistrusted by others, the Jhereg are at the forefront of any fight against a threat to civilization, be it aligning with mystical forces, wielding powerful magics or cavorting with dark entities, the Jhereg will use whatever means are at their disposal to prevail!
