‎　‎Since Tok people’s lifestyles have been influenced heavily by their millennia of physical tenacity and hardship, they have all fostered a persistent, mental determination that has propelled them onward. Most Tok cultures share a deep respect for discipline in some way or another.

　‎　‎Growing out of the ‘Old World’ in the East, the Tok people now inhabit a majority of the continent and their cultures have significant influence across the lands. The Torgali, the oldest surviving branch of the Tok people, have resided in the densely thicketed Torgali Jungle for many centuries and have built civilizations around ancient structures still in use today. During historical times of trouble, many Torgali clans took to adventuring outside of their presumed world, far into the deserts and tundras of the continent. After centuries of adapting to their new homelands, these people diverged from the greater Torgali into the Canzian people of the deserts and the Lovalians of the northern mountains. The strangest of the Tok people are the Dawi, their origin story is convoluted and shrouded in mystery but they come from a clan of Tok people who discovered the ruins of a great civilization and committed fully to adopting the culture and ways of these long lost people.

　‎　‎All Sylvan people share an intrinsic bond to the natural world. It is this bond that has created a heavy influence on the potential and preservation of nature in all of the Sylvan cultures. As a group, the Sylvan species have historically endeavored to thrive with nature, rather than conquer it. They all share a deep desire for freedom, which drives them to pursue their heart’s desires at their own pace, which is often considered very slow to the rest of the world.

　‎　‎Originating in the Western lands, the Sylvan people had a long period of hardship in which their population sharply declined. Thought to be the result of a great war between the Primal Sylvan and Tok people. To this day, the Faekin, who remain the most similar to their ancestors, continue to reside in the Harmonious Glen, although it is a fraction of the size of its historical borders. The original arbiters of Sylvan heritage though they are, the Faekin now only make up a small population of the greater Sylvan species, which now includes their evolutionary sistren: the Bodren and Fangren, both Sylvan people who returned to the Lands many centuries later. The Bodren, who settled in the fertile and vibrant boglands, embrace their centralized position on the continent, fusing and celebrating their culture with all those around who will share. The Fangren are a much more stoic and traditionalist people, secreted away in the wilds of the forest. They maintain small, tightly knit communities where they practice their ancient and complex magics.

　‎　‎The people of the Varian species have been defined by their unstoppable desire for connection. Without this need for fellowship, it’s likely that their entire species would have been wiped out long ago, as the Primal Værian ancestral Land of Willory was once the most deadly place the world has ever seen. Thanks to their societal structures, their willingness to rely on their communities, and their historically-proven ability to organize and create, the Varian people have endured against all odds.

　‎　‎The Primal Varian were cheery and pacifistic smallfolk who lived in the central, fertile woodlands of Willory. While they thrived in this Land, so did much of the native wildlife, many of whom grew much larger and stronger than the Varian. Over time, they were forced out of most of their homelands by fearsome competition. Those that lived in the northern regions suffered the greatest and were forced to abandon their ancient lands entirely; some forced underground, some forced to the wrathful seas in hopes of finding a more suitable place to call home. The Varian in the southern lands retained much of their ancestral ways but adapted by becoming predatory nomads, migrating seasonally to avoid any threatening competition. Over time, they would become the jovial masters of trade known as the Hinfolk. Those that fled to the underground in search of safety would become the industrious and quick-witted Grim Kinfolk, and later the Grimkin. Some took to the waves, spending ages away from home in distant foreign lands, each generation growing stronger and more capable of physically handling large threats. These Willonians, as they became known, returned several centuries prior to the present day, and they retook their lands from the wild beasts that once preyed upon the people of old Willory.
