The Wildlings are those with the strongest connection to nature in all of its forms, with a reverence for stories.

Playing a Wildling

If you’re playing a Wildling, your character could be a skilled guide who has been to the depths of the Great Forest and survived. They could also be a renowned herbalist, who knows the names and uses of every plant of Tirneach, and can coax them to grow where everyone else gives up the soil as barren. Both characters are eager to share their accomplishments and prowess with others.

Wildlings are distinguished from the other species by the mark that their connection to nature has left on their face. The Wildlings call this their glamour, while other species dismiss this as yet another Wildling boast and call it less kind names such as the mark of the Gwyllt.

Wildlings are divided into two categories: Field Wildlings and Forest Wildlings.

Forest Wildlings

Forest Wildlings see themselves as the only true Wildlings and by and large shun larger settlements, preferring the woods or the edges of smaller settlements where they can feel at one with nature. They are renowned hunters and trackers, taking game from the Great Forest to eat, or to trade with villages for anything they cannot make themselves.

Field Wildlings

Field Wildlings are often derogatively called Tamelings by their Forest cousins. Their glamour is green and verdant, and reflects the calmer and more nurturing side of nature, imitating fruit, berries, grass or crops. They can be found tending the fields, harvesting the crops and caring for the livestock. Some say the Leasiar have tamed them and made them useful. The Field Wildlings respond that they have given the Leasiar an appreciation for living in the present. They have helped the Leasiar find a connection to nature, while they themselves have merely adapted to a life where they aren’t starving or in constant danger of being eaten by wolves.

Wildling Facebook Group

The Wildlings don't yet have a Facebook Group. They weren't a fan of the 'Stories' feature.

Costuming Requirements

Wildling characters should be marked with make-up appropriate to their natures. Either verdant and gentle or with fangs and brutal vibrancy.
