Baklunish | Flan | Oeridian | Rhennee | Suel The Baklunish (Arabic) The Baklunish people are mostly the northwestern regions of the Flanaess in Zeif, Ull, Ekbir and the Tiger Nomads. Their skin is golden and their eyes are most commonly green or gray-green with gray and hazel less frequent. They are split into two major groups. Nomadic heardsmen and farmers and traders. Somewhat like the Suel, the Baklunish tend toward magic as well. They are known for inventing new elemental spells. Their reputation for magic is due to the Rain of Colorless Fire that the Baklunish loosed upon the Suel Imperium a millennium ago. These are considered the original peoples of eastern
Oerik. This is where the term Flanaess has come from. This group of people were originally nomads with probably no permanent cities.
They were scattered throughout the Flanaess by the Suel and Oeridians a thousand years ago. Most Flanne are
bronze in skin tone and have dark wavy or curly hair. Their complexions can be from a lighter coppery
color to deep brown and their hair is usually black but also can be dark brown or brown. The Oeridians (UK/Ireland/Scandinavian / German Europeans) When the Oeridians came to the Flanaess from the west they eventually took what is now
Furyondy, Perrenland, the Shield Lands, the Great Kingdom of North Aerdy, the United Kingdom of
Ahlissa, Onnwal and Sunndi. They are harder to distinguish from other races since their skin ranges from tan to
olive and hair from honey- blonde to black. Brown and auburn are the most commonly seen colors of
hair and their eyes can be of every known color, but mostly brown or gray.
What makes the Oeridians notable is their choice of clothing. They like things such as plaid and checks and such. The Rhennee are a group of people that supposedly aren't even native to Oerth. They may have come to the land from another plane although they cannot remember what it was like only that it was vastly different than the Flanaess in a place called Rhop. At first they could be taken as Oeridians since they
have much of the same physical appearance with tan to olive skin and black to dark brown hair.
Their eyes are usually brown, gray or hazel. They are a small built people, males rarely averaging above 5'6",
but are strong. The Suloise (Aryan Nation crossed with Japanese and Mid East) No one knows what the ancient homeland of the Suel was like. It was destroyed by the Rain of
Colorless Fire turning it into the desert called the Sea of Dust. They say there is treasure of the ancient
cities of the Suel there, but the climate is not very nice. |
