The Emon are nomadic people, wether in deasert caravans, wagon trains, or anything inbetween. They travel all over the world and never stay in one place longer than a month. They are a very proud people who would prefer death than admiting they are wrong. Emon are also very tradidtional and consider unarranged marriages unatrual. They also worship all the gods, even those most would say you'd have to be crazy to worship, like Eredor.
Physically Emon are shaped like humans but are a little shorter than average. They have red-brown skin and hair that varies between very pale blonde to pure white, though depending on their clan they use dies to either highlight or completely color their hair. The dye is a special kind they are famous for that will never fade or grow out. Emon eyes are always warm colors, like yellow, red, orange are such. In the dark their eyes glow.
Emon divide themselves into clans, though who was your family had nothing to do with your clan. Every Emon is born with a type of magic, which may or may not be the magic of your parents. Depending on your magic is what clan you fall into, and what color dye you use in your hair. Also depending on what magic you had was what realm of the god's realms you could enter for every Emon could also enter one god's realm. The Triwe are Water, dye their hair blue and enter the water realms. Golas are Stone, brown dye and the Mountain Realm. Fisaga are Air, leaving their hair undyed and enter the Star Realm. Manash are Fire, red dye and the Desert Realm. Dramsak are Life, and divided into two different sub-clans: Ertal the Animal magic and Seslan the Plant magics. Both sub-clans dye their hair green and visit the Forest Realm. The last clan, the Yshin, do not have a magic but they enter the Plains Realm can travel to any realm they please. They dye their hair purple. Of coarse there are levels of magic, some Emon are have so little they can't even make a spell. Incredibly powerful Yahin are able to make portals that can take anyone, even non-Emon to the god' realms. The Emon have five levels of magical powers: Rigon, so little magic they can't cast a spell; Uhlash, able to cast small spells; Vinese, a moderate spell caster; Adcar, powerful spell caster; and Koanan, the most powerful of mages able to cast the great spells.
When born Emon are covered in strange black markings that tell which element the child has. If the element is different than his or hers parents, which would be of the same element since marriages between different clans is obsene and like marrying a human to a goat, unatural; then the child is removed from their custody and given to another family willing to take a child in the child's element clan. This child may eventually find out it's adopted but usually doesn't care since this is a common occurance. The black markings on all Emon's bodies shrink down to a single marking on their foreheads that are in the shape of their element. A flame for Manash, triangle for Golas, two curved hortizontal lines, like this ~ for Fisaga, a wave for Triwe, a circle with a dot in it for Ertal, a circle for Seslan, and a spiral for Yshin.
Emon have only one city, though the occupants never stay occupants for long. They rotate between the clans who lives there since the city is big enough to house the enite clan. After their turn they welcome the next clan with a party and leave, dividing into their extended family caravans. They go in this order: Fisaga, Manash, Dramsak, Golas, Triwe, Yshin, and continues to Fisaga. It is during the time the clan is in the city that holidays take place, marriages preformed, laws made, and basically all clan work is completed. This city is located on the coast for caravans that travel in ships across the seas but other than that nothing is know about it's location to outsiders. Well there are a few outsiders who enter, but they have to have a special symbol, a medalion with the clan then family symbol on it, that says they have been in a way adopted by that family and can be let in when that clan is in residence.
