History

The Plainsfolk emerged from scattered nomadic bands uniting after a great drought, forming a resilient culture centered on survival and kinship. Their oral histories speak of a legendary leader, Tala the Far-Seer, who guided them to the fertile Examplar Plains.

Beliefs

They revere their ancestors as guiding spirits, believing the dead watch over the living. Offerings of food and song are made at stone circles during solstices.

Customs

Marriage is marked by a three-day feast, and disputes are settled by elder councils under the open sky. Storytelling is a sacred art, passed down through generations.

Influence

Their weaving techniques have spread to neighboring cultures, and their tales inspire wandering bards across the continent.
