‎　‎‎Most Fangren dwell in small forest villages hidden among the trees. Fangren hunt game, gather food, and grow vegetables, and their skill and magic allow them to support themselves without the need for clearing and plowing land. Deeply ingrained within Fangren culture are animist traditions that stretch back to their origins; families often align themselves with an ancient natural god, of varying name and power. The Fangren pantheon is a mess of multi-named gods and differing traditions, but each family god is warmly welcome within the mythos and only adds to the diversity of the pantheon. While families may strongly devote themselves to a particular god, they are rare to insult or harang another’s god. They are talented artisans, crafting finely worked clothes and art objects. Their contact with outsiders is usually limited, though Fangren merchants make a good living by trading crafted items for metals and other foreign delights. Fangren encountered outside their own lands are commonly traveling minstrels, artists, or sages. Nobles of all races compete for the services of Fangren instructors to teach swordplay or magic to their children.
　‎　‎Despite their limited outside contact, many Fangren take up adventuring out of wanderlust. Since they are so long-lived, they can enjoy centuries of exploration and discovery. They dislike the pace of Colonian society, which is regimented from day to day but constantly changing over decades, so they find careers that let them travel freely and set their own pace. Fangren also enjoy exercising their martial prowess or gaining greater magical power, and adventuring allows them to do so. Some might join with rebels fighting against oppression, and others might become champions of worthy causes.
