Veling

The Velinga live in a valley that is almost as far north as the territory of the Jotuni. Their valley is protected from most of the ravages of the far northern climate by large mountains. They tend to interact mostly with the Humans of Sidalicia, although they are found in all areas of the world. Velinga are shy and retiring by nature, and very very swift. They are wiser than most races, but weaker in strength and constitution.

A tattoed Veling Their simple town of Velington is open to all who venture that far north. Being partly creatures of magic, Velinga are able to detect such in others innately. Their quickness and speed benefits them in endurance as well as agility. They are skilled in the 'brain' skills as well, such as magic, and learning. They are very tiny compared to other races and their skin can be tinged with color at birth, such as blue, pink and yellow. Their hair is usually dyed a shocking pink, green, or purple and they wear tattoos. Their eyesight is extraordinary compared to most other races. Velinga are more adapted to cooler than warm climes. Due to their quickness, Velinga are able to attack more often than other races during a fight.

Velington*

Almost directly west from Jotunheim is the valley where the town of the Velinga, Velington is situated. The valley is protected by tall mountains from the worst of the winter and is quite beautiful and fertile. Velington seems a shanty town to many visitors, as the Velinga are a rather carefree and unencumbered race. They are not stupid by any means, most are quite smart, they just simply choose to spend their time doing things besides cleaning and building and propping up old houses. This same benign disregard colors most things the Velinga do, including social interactions and interactions between the sexes. You will rarely find a sexist Veling.

Recently there has been an exodus from Velington of many of the brightest of Velinga, brought about by the acension to their ruling triarchy of a man much hated by the common people. The man, Indeldup by name, has since died and the other two rulers and Indeldup's son have sent search parties out to find the wandering Velinga.
