At a Glance

Human Groups

Deepfellings

The Lake People- known to some as the Deepfellings- are the default Human type. These people are not native to the Deepfell area. They colonized along the river three hundred years ago when plentiful land and gold were discovered in the Northern Veldt. Opportunists came to build an upriver, inland community from Cold Harbor. These people built a settlement on elevated boardwalks supported by timber sunk into the muck of the area. The initial colonists and prospectors that settled Deepfell came from several cultures. They intermarried and some took wives and husbands from the Veldt natives. The culture has homogenized into a spectrum of what most people recognize as Lake People.

Cold Harborers

Cold Harbor is a large port city on the southern coast of the Northern Veldt. It is situated on the Great North River (the same river as Deepfell). Cold Harbor is peopled by Humans who colonized the area in waves. Many of the first Cold Harborer families form the city's upper crust as they have had the most opportunity. Successive waves of colonists, travelers, and trades who have settled in the city have given Cold Harbor a more cosmopolitan feel. Cold Harborers look at their city and themselves as the only bastion of civilization on the Northern Veldt. What matters to them is their city. The city is separated into "Quarters" and "Ghettos" for natives versus transients and merchants but the working classes all intermingle.
