The Qunari people follow a philosophy known as the Qun. Before they embraced it, they were a barbaric people prone to violent rages. The Qun made these
barbarians into thinkers, planners, and technicians, though they also remained warriors. There are those Qunari, however, who reject the Qun. Some of them want to return to the old ways of their people, while others just want to live by their own rules. These rebels are known as vashoth, or “grey ones,” and they must leave Qunari lands before they are detected or face reeducation or punishment. Such exiles are not consid-ered part of the Qunari people any more. In the spirit of defiance, they call themselves Tal’ Vashoth, or “true grey ones.” Many of them worship the old, animist gods of their people and see themselves as the real inheritors of their ancestors’ legacy.
Tal-Vashoth live in foreign lands and get by as they can. Many work as mercenaries because their strength and skill in battle are prized. Others become raiders,
pirates, smugglers, or even slavers. Roving bands of Tal-Vashoth are not uncommon in the north and they pose problems for both Qunari and human settlements.
