Mountain Tems

Mountian Tems are a primitive culture of temmies that chose to ignore the teachings of Bob and stay in their mountainous homes. They are significantly less advanced than their urban relatives, barely in the stone age. There is an obvious rivalry between Mountain and Urban Tems, with Urban Tems hating Mountain Tems for not following the teachings of Bob, while Mountain Tems hate Urban Tems for following a sorcerer.
