Belgars

Belgars are a fictional species originating from the novel series "The Belgariad" by David Eddings. They are a human-like race, often depicted as having a strong connection to the land and a deep sense of tradition. Physically, they are described as being similar to humans, with variations in appearance among different Belgari groups. They are known for their resilience and their long-held cultural practices.

The Belgari homeland is often portrayed as a collection of disparate kingdoms and regions, each with its own unique customs and governance. Despite these differences, a common cultural thread binds them together. Their societies are typically agrarian, with a strong emphasis on community and family. Religion plays a significant role in their lives, with a pantheon of gods that are actively worshipped and believed to influence mortal affairs.

Magic is a present force in the world of the Belgari, and some individuals within the Belgari species possess magical abilities. These abilities are often tied to specific lineages or gifts bestowed by the gods. The Belgari have a complex history, marked by periods of peace, conflict, and the rise and fall of various rulers. Their destiny is often intertwined with ancient prophecies and the balance of power between opposing divine forces. The overarching narrative frequently involves a quest to protect their world and its people from malevolent entities.
