Uncnown
Uncnown is a sub culture that originally started after the first worker rebellions were put down by the nobles. While they may have painted those workers as threats to society and scabs to the city ability to survive. This didn't stop a change from occurring. Many of people decided to live off the grid in a way. In the city but within alleys and old buildings. Building a secret part of the cities society focused on breaking away from the people in power by either building or taking what they considered theirs by right.
They were given the name Uncnown a Lazari term for unknown. The people who walk in shadows and exist mostly off the grid. From the homeless, criminal gangs, freelance workers, and anyone who doesn't work through proper channels. Even those who want change in how things are run in the city are considered part of this group, The Nobles see them as threats to the city while the people see them as those simply trying to survive in a city that is crumbling under greed and reaching the limit of how many can even live there safely.
After the Elemental station disaster the Uncnown grew in numbers as many of those tainted by magic chose to go off the grid as they feared being found out and imprisoned just for being cursed by magic.
Culture
Shared customary codes and values
Hard work is important to the uncnown as it is how they survive off the grid. Even those dealing in the illegal value hard work more than laziness. They also believe that one must keep their mouths shut when dealing with the nobles or the guards. As loose lips will drag everyone down. They also strongly carry the value of honor when one makes a deal. One who breaks deals or who don't complete a contract is considered someone not worthy of work even amongst the Uncnown.
