The Gyda

Description

  • The Gyda are a race physically very close to human average except, for their slightly webbed fingers and toes.
  • They are above all else a race of seafarers.
  • The Gyda primarily survive on the fruits of the sea; fish, seal, whale and shellfish would be staples of their diet. There clothes would be made from seal skin as often as wool or leather and decorated with Walrus tusk ivory. (Assuming all such animals live on Raiv of course)
  • A typical Gyda would be curious, straight forward, boisterous and vengeful if crossed.
  • A Gyda's word is his contract, lying and particularily oathbreaking would be considered unacceptable.
  • They are a musical people, given to singing while they work or pray.
