Hin of Rymura

Even before their population was decimated during the First War of Extermination, the Hin were a pseudo-nomadic people. One of the defining characteristics of the Hin is the ability to pack everything they own into one overland pack (called a Rucken'mor), or a hand cart, and move around the region of their Enclave. Hin have a great ability to adapt to their surroundings: Evolutionary traits within an recently moved enclave can begin to show as early as within that same generation that made the move.

Not ones for centralized governments, most enclaves are "ruled" by a merchant council or council of elders. In practice these councils are only there to settle the most dire of disputes and do not pursue, or want, this power. Hin favor communal parity and agricultural idealism; To a Hin, regardless of job or standing, one life is worth the same as any other and they more concerned with family and feasts. Even Hin festivals are more about the changing seasons and less about any Gods.
