Information
Wyrd culture is slightly different than most other houses. The Kingdom is made up of a number of lineages with the Wyrd family leading them all. Originally from further north and including some barbarian influences, many houses and indeed people of the Wyrd Kingdom have a strong affinity to nature. Almost all members of society want "balance", but what this means does vary from person to person.
Citizen and villeins alike were members of the Church of Rahn, but also generally worship several other gods such as Ard, the Ven god that is the aspect of Balance among other things and local Knytt gods, spirits and creatures. Most houses had at least one knytt creature or spirit they had a close bond with and sometimes several. It wasn't unheard of that each family member had a Knytt companion each.
- As a cultural reference, "Knytt" can vaguely be translated to "Fey".
