| - | The Gothar live east of [[Vykir]] and south of [[Ice Peaks]] along the shoreline of the [[White Sea]]. North of their land is a cold sea filled with island of ice and snow beyond which the giants and dragons live. When the breath of [[lore:Néébeka]], the great ice serpent, touches the sea the water will freeze allowing the giants into their lands. This is a time of great struggle and death; however, the Gothar stand strong and proud against the odds. | + | The Gothar live east of [[Vykir]] and south of [[Ice Peaks]] along the shoreline of the [[White Sea]].

| - | Töframann are those that have been called to the path of magic and spirits. These men and women live outside of the rest of the village, often making their home upon the snow or ice far from the hearth. They are responsible for defending the Gotha against the darkest evils that have no fear of spear. They draw upon the breath of [[lore:Néébeka]] and the wisdom of [[lore:Heldt]]. | + | Töframann are those that have been called to the path of magic and spirits.

| The arrival of a Töframann to a heimstadt is always a time of change. If a woman is nearing her birth it could be that her baby will be Töframann. If no woman is near then it is more likely a time of darkness is nearing the heimstadt and a Töframann is needed to guide them through. More than one Töframann arriving is always a sign of a great battle approaching. | The arrival of a Töframann to a heimstadt is always a time of change.

| - | These women live on the rocky islands in the [[:White Sea]]. It is a land forbidden to men and dangerous to those women not willing to submit themselves. Occasionally the brave or stupid will tempt Néébeka's wrath and cross the sea to reach the islands. Those strong, brave, and smart enough might even see the light of day again. Those that do return receive great honors for the battle they have fought against both Néébeka and the warrior women that she shelters. | + | These women live on the rocky islands in the [[atlas:White Sea]].

| - | //Main Article: [[lore:Gothite]]// | ||
| - | The Gothite religion is very strict and very exclusionary. In essence, it states that Goth was created to hold back the evil that was across the great sea. The sea would freeze and the evil would come so that all Gothites could do battle against it. Dying in battle is considered acceptable, but not seen as the highest idea of Goth. Instead, a warrior should best their opponent so they may continue to fight and teach their skills to the children. | + | The [[orgs:gothite]] religion is very strict and very exclusionary.

| ==== Magic ==== | ==== Magic ==== | ||
| - | The magic used by the töframann is more of a call for ancestral intervention instead of the knowledge used by the [[lore:Dakarians]]. Unlike other magics, the power of the töframann seems nearly limitless when the töframann is living upon the land settled by their ancestors. | + | The magic used by the töframann is more of a call for ancestral intervention instead of the knowledge used by the [[orgs:dakarians]].
