Rrshvk (Rish-Vac)
"I had never visited a Fayus village before and I certainly never thought I'd see so many like Arajin. I expected them to be more... ferocious. They did not seem to care much for our presence. Of course... we were captives..." - Truffles.
Demographics
Rrshvk is populated exclusively by Tyger folk. They consist of a handful of shamans, hunters, gatherers, and crafters. Wealth does not appear to be a concept they hold, rather, the classes are divided by their role in society, with the shamans on top, followed by crafters, hunters, then gatherers.
Government
The settlement is run by the two head shamans, a white Tyger with black stripes and a black Tyger with white stripes said to be touched by the gods. The laws established in Rrshvk are common among the wild Fayus of Berdea; the laws of the jungle and survival of the fittest. The settlement thrives through following rules designed to keep them safe from the threats of the jungle they live and working together for the benefit of everyone.
Industry & Trade
Rrshvk trades with other villages nearby of Tyger, Gnoll, and Kobolds. While the villages may not all like each other or fight with each other, most of the time they remain grudgingly neutral toward each other to keep their odds of survival high. Their primary exports are the medicines crafted by the shamans, leather from the hunters, herbs and root vegetables from the gatherers, and services from their crafters or shamans.
Infrastructure
The village has well worn paths and a wall of tall reeds to keep predators and invasive animals out. A small garden grows just outside the wall to provide medicinal plants and food to the village.
History
Rrshvk grew up around the continued pattern of a black and white Tyger being born in each generation in the Tyger tribe. Once the tribe splintered over the issue of an affliction of primal rage, one segment settled down in the shadow of a mountain ruled by Dragons. The village lived in peace, guided by the god touched shamans.
