Homebrew Austri Species Details

Life in Green Lights of the East has different hardships, compared to other regions. People’s struggles are not with nature, but with other people. In this region, you can easily buy the pelt of a wild animal instead of hunting it, but bargaining can be just as hard as hunting. Bureaucracy keeps things in order in the cities of the region, but it also slows things down. Once called the Kingdom of Eastern Horn, Green Lights of the East has always been in war with the people who opposed them. Their crusade in the name of Odin, Tyr, and Thor is still going strong. Education and Military Service In Green Lights of the East, education is systemized and children between the age of 5 to 15 are educated in specific longhouses. Usually, this education includes reading and writing in Austri, basic math, the structure of Green Lights of the East, and religion (the teachings of Odin, Tyr, and Thor). After the age of 15, all citizens of the Kingdom must serve in the army of Green Lights of the East for one year. During this time, people are assigned to non-dangerous posts and learn how to fight and how to survive in tough times. This didn’t used to be an obligation before Queen Bergjlöt (is rumored to have) said, “If only the warriors are allowed in Valhalla, I’ll make sure my whole kingdom dines together with the Gods and Goddesses.”
