Notes about the two: both raznak and karnala are, as their tribe usually is, very welcoming towards new faces, the decision to move away from the tribe and into the swamps which surrounded the tribe, came from raznak one day having been out scouting, where he heard in the distance, cries of help and upon following the distant sounds, he found a small group of kidnapped teenagers, taken by rapists to the deep swamp. Yet he would come to rescue the teenagers, and get them to a nearby village. Though when talking together with karnala about it, they decided for the decision, to live in a house in the deep swamp, in order to be able to save whoever would get lost in them, but as well, to have more contact with the more modern communities, and trade with them. As well, they were seeked out by ian, not long after he got his bionic arm, as they were, to his knowledge, the only creatures who could help him get revenge on the demon who scared his eye when he was a pup. Of course later on, said demon would as well come to them, but this time together with ian, as the demon, in later times, would prove to be different, in personality, than he once was.


Their tribe: the tribe raznak and karnala is from, is a very ancient tribe, distinguished by their massive size, orange markings, armor plate “hair”, their natural nature magic and their powerfull physical build. The tribe was, from their origin, very good craftsmen, making armor and weapons of a very good quality, as well, their hide, with the bone plates inside the scales, and the thickness of it, made them, even in modern times, very hard to even harm.
The most important part of their history however, was at the end of an ancient war between demons and dragons, nearly 4400 years ago, while most of the planet’s populace, including the tribe’s memory of the war was wiped and forgotten, not long after it, a old dragon would come to the tribe, one who had fought in the war, at the last years of his life, he spent them to teach the tribe about the art of crafting and enchanting artifacts into anti demon artifacts, to make it so that, in case the demons would return, there would be someone who could fight them, the tribe would come to take on this form of craftsmanship. Through the thousands of years that have passed since then, the tribe’s craftsmanship of artifacts to counter demons had become very advanced and powerfull, having improved greatly above anything existing before, their artifacts could quite possibly be the strongest and most powerfull created, as they had little to no contact with anything outside the caverns they lived in, however, they did not know a good demon even existed, so upon meeting the demon dar, accompanied with ian, it would be a very interesting thing for the tribe, and a turning point in their knowledge.

In general, the tribe, albeit being very skilled in weapons and armor, enjoy a more peacefull way of life, the tribal crocodiles there can talk with eachother, only using their body language for shorter conversations, and a few words in their own language, for longer ones, they all learn English, as the tribe is quite aware of the importance of understanding the language to those living outside.

The tribe as well, are very resistant to disease, and they are very adept swimmers, being able to swim the atlantic in under 10 seconds.

The tribe is very peacefull and friendly, from their understanding of body language, they can very easily distinguish the intensions of a creature, and what they really mean, and from that, they are welcoming to all new faces that visits, as long as they don’t see any selfish reasons behind it, the tribe enjoys the pleasures of life and living the life. Their cavern being split into different areas, one where they live, in either tents or tribal houses, but one for a form of market, this tribe’s market being more of a “go and look what hunters etc have gotten today and take what you need” kind of place, as greed and such among the tribals are unheard of.

The tribals as well enjoy music and games greatly, a area of their cavern being filled with it, instruments, musicians, games where both young and old play different games, either games invented by the tribe or games from the outside world. The older of the tribe usually enjoy other pleasures like sex and such quite a lot, and they as well always stand up and help eachother. It is not usual for a couple to find eachother at a very young age, and by then being together until they die, as, from their way of life, they believe that a couple is only a real couple if they are truly meant for eachother, and, that is something they usually know on the first signs of love, whether that is the case or not.

As well, the tribe greatly enjoy beauty, but, in creatures, they judge beauty by personality, even a warrior, with his body filled with scars, and a generally bad look, but a heart of gold, might just as well have a mate who’s body and personality are beautifull, and the two would be together for life.

The location of this tribe, is in a cavern in a small mountain deep into florida’s deepest swamp, a swamp filled with a thick deep fog and very tall trees. The swamp itself is filled with quicksand and other hazards, and the further you travel into it, the thicker the fog will become, the thicker you get in the fog, the less sound will travel in it, senses will get weakened, only the tribe raznak and karanala is a part of can see, smell, sense and hear through this fog, as well all of them will not sink in quicksand, which as well, is one of the reason raznak and karnala decided to live in the swamps, and not in the caverns, so that they could rescue any unfortunate micro who gets lost there, or forced there, as, because the swamps are so thick with fog and easy to hide in, criminals often wander there, unaware that they will soon meet their fate, in the hands of a couple of gigantic macro crocodiles
