Suru'gin (culture)

Descendants of the colonists who left Krehejad on their 777 ships. The Suru'gin or, ones without hopes in their native tongue, have found their new home among the humid mangroves of Cyrat. Following the Aversarian conquest of their homeland, the followers of E'hat'm were scattered far and wide attempting to find a new motherland but without doubt the most successful of these ventures was surprisingly the various outposts which settled along Cyrat's unforgiving coasts. While these isolated settlements were once confined to the shore of this mysterious landmass, a combination of local knowledge and trial and error allowed the Suru'gin to penetrate deeper into Cyrat's harsh interior, establishing successful kingdoms in the process. One of these innovations was the use of spirit skin, a lotion made from the sap of the native Xapanta tree, protecting the wearer from the hordes of mosquitos which plague the dense and colourful jungles.
