Enidarian

Enidarian refers to a broad cultural and linguistic group found in the northern regions of the continent of Aeridor. Historically, the Enidarian peoples are characterized by their nomadic pastoralism, with many tribes traditionally herding large flocks of mountain goats and yaks across the high plateaus. Their traditional dwelling structures are often portable yurts, designed to withstand the harsh, windy climate.

The Enidarian languages form a distinct family, with several major dialects spoken across different tribal confederations. While direct written records are scarce from ancient times, oral traditions and sagas passed down through generations provide insights into their mythology and history. Key figures in these narratives often include legendary chieftains and spirit guides who are believed to have shaped the land and its people.

Enidarian society is typically organized around kinship and clan structures, with elders holding significant authority. Social gatherings and festivals, often tied to seasonal changes and agricultural cycles, are important for maintaining community bonds. Their spiritual beliefs often involve animism and reverence for natural elements, with specific mountains, rivers, and trees considered sacred sites. Trade with settled communities in the south has influenced Enidarian culture, introducing new goods and technologies while also leading to some assimilation of customs over centuries.
