Plaereid

 

The Plaereid imitate the grassland grazers of wild horses and like their natural counterparts, they once lived nomadic lives. The Plaereid fared the worse at the hands of Hythnetic condemnation, as they matched the equine deities of Hythness, these also happening to be the most popular amongst its worshippers. When emerging from their seclusion, it became apparent that the Plaereid of the south had been exterminated in their entirety. The northern Plaereid would seek security in the new Cathirian nations, integrating better than their brothers and sisters, and being far more commonplace as a result.
