The major kingdoms of Faerun are not the sole bastions of culture resisting the encroaching darkness. From the frigid north to the shores of the Wraith Coast, numerous tribes have opted to maintain their traditional lifestyles, coexisting in harmony with the spirits of the wild. When hunting and gathering prove insufficient to sustain their populace, many tribes resort to raiding more “civilized” regions. Consequently, these tribes have acquired a reputation as barbarians and savages, overlooking their rich history and profound reverence for nature.
Members of these clans typically feel more at ease traversing the wilderness than their urban counterparts. Their intimate connection with nature and the spirits imbues them with a distinct perspective on various issues, rendering them less hasty to condemn unfamiliar practices. Those who depart from the tribe often excel as guides, trackers, and mercenaries.
