Night Nomad
In the vast moors of the Known Lands, there are still ethnic
groups, families, or tribes, who challenge the impervious forgotten
roads of the outside world. Night Faelings are often
those who are more familiar with this way of life under the
open sky, but also parties of other ethnicities whose house or
village has been razed to the ground. These characters quickly
get used to dealing with the hard life in the Lunar Age and can
become sentinels or phenomenal wilderness experts. Some of
them simply hope to find their own place in the world, while
others are now enthralled by a lifestyle of dangerous adventures,
willingly joining groups of nocturnal adventurers.
