Clan Svinling
In the Sorrows do live men in animals' fur. They speak a strange tongue similar to Common, and fight with spears and shields.
None do know for sure, but they art seen and sighted at times in the Northern Kingdoms, mingling between each other and leaving as silently as they hath arrived.

So. An Anglo-Saxon based, primitive tribe of superstitious folk. They speak middle english with bits of old english for spice, fight with boarspears, hatchets, slings and javelins, and sometimes ride ponies and mules. All of us will build a town in the Sorrows, Cnanburh.Some things you might want to know about the culture.
Svinlings worship the God of Seasons, pray to him every winter for mercy, spring for fertility, summer for joy, and autumn for youth.
The time a youth reaches the age of fifteen winters, they are sent off to the forests to survive for a whole year, given but a knife, axe, coat, and some salt. As they kill their first beast, it is believed that the soul of the animal integrates with the soul of the youth, and they become one.
Our dialect is like this:
thou/thee/ye = you
thine/thy = your
art = are
dost = do
nay = no
yea/yay/aye = yes
ac = but, however
when in doubt add eth to the end of a verb
hast/hath = has/have
fare = fayre
fair/beautious = beautiful
hither = here
thither = there
whence = when
(it is just to keep immersion, friends. Not required to speak like this constantly.)
to keep up with historical accuracy, women will not be considered equal to men, but that doesn't mean they're oppressed. They are still the rulers in the house when the men are off on hunts or raids.
some of us decided to age their characters every 2 weeks, to bring character development and make known a thing called 'generations'. feel free to join in the same thing, or not. up to you.
How you can join us!
Either by making a new character, using the anglo-saxon name generator http://fantasynamegenerators.com/anglo-saxon-names.php#.VO__MuGzmrI
choosing their occupation, animal they've killed (Or you can go make a fifteen year old and get sent on an initiation event.)
and bam, you're in.
OR, you can get your character absorbed into our culture, adopting a name (or not, up to you) and going on the same initiation, killing a beast and becoming part of the tribe.
