 The Vistani are wanderers at heart, travelling the rivers and coastal waters in their brightly colored barges. Their craft are not built for deep water which causes one to question their story that they sailed to Greensward, and the Vistani tenet that only other Vistani deserve honesty of word or action brings further question to the truth of their tale.
-The vagabond nature of the Vistani is more than just a cultural habit, if a Vistani lingers in one location for more than a month he sickens with a spiritual malaise called ''the Devil's Luck''. Healing will become unreliable, arcane magic will become unpredictable (10% wild surge), and his constitution will gradually decline. Some say that ''the Devil's Luck'' can lead to death, but even worse for the proud Vistani it can result in a fundamental change of nature. To all external appearance the individual recovers and looks unchanged by the ordeal but on some spiritual level he has been 'rejected by the mists.' Any Vistani can tell that he is no longer one of them. Any Vistani can tell that they are no longer one of them. Some say that this condition actually attracts the attention of fiends, or that they are doomed to betray the tribe and must be stoned to death. How much of this is true is up for debate but truth and superstition have never been close acquaintances.

 The Mamonil were responsible for the breaking of the Empire. The Imperial Order of the Golden Dawn was originally a benevolent cadre of wizards who faithfully served the Emperor for ten centuries. Court Wizard Barnabus convinced the Emperor to grant governance of the Eastfold to the Golden Dawn, but in truth undermined the Emperor's power in preparation for secession. The secession should have failed easily, but Barnabus had become a Lich and made a pact with an Orcish horde dedicated to Mammon.
-The Eastfold was fundamentally changed under the Tyranny of Barnabus, and rumors of Orcish as well as Diabolic interbreeding among the populace. The strain of the war weakened the position of the Empire over the decades as the stalemate dragged on. The oppressed factions under Imperial rule were necessary to field forces significant enough to repel the Orcs, but once they were finally victorious, the factions now had standing armies and no desire to return to their former state. With Barnabus and Emperor Lirus both destroyed in the last battle, the son of the Emperor was still an infant and the Regent did not have the skill to negotiate peace. In the middle of the negotiations the Regent was assassinated (possibly by Highland Barbarians) and the young Emperor was kidnapped never to be heard from again. All hope of reunification failed at this point.

 The Mamonil have since shown no great betrayal, but all races still eye them with suspicion. Even the title Mamonil they have born with resignation. They accept that they will not be trusted, that even their most heroic actions will be granted less praise because of the memory of the Tyrant.

-The traditional image of a Dahlman is short, dark, and mean. They are certainly stocky and swarthy, but they are not so much mean and suspicious of outsiders. They are slow to trust but very diligent, which is to be expected of a people farming rocky ground in a short growing season. They are skilled hunters, able to track seals and ice bears across blowing glaciers but they eschew traps as cowardly and also ineffective. "Anything that stands still on the Ice is Bear food." is an early lesson for young Dahlmen.
