==Ortûlékians==

The Ortûlékians have their origin in the cold and rainy plains of Belkondíl, but they do not easily remain in one place and can now be found in nearly every corner of Elondor; and that, upon their tendency towards conquests and massacres, mostly in powerful positions. Initially living in a clan-based and largely genderless society, their different ethnicities’ cultures and languages have diverted wide over the millennia, adopting many of the traditions of their host countries as well as conceiving of their own innovations. They are typically tall, light-skinned, and light-haired.
