Wildlands

Wildlands heritage characters were raised in communities deeply entwined with Primordial magic.

Some wild places well up with magic. Such an abundance of power might come from a mystic connection to the primal fey realms or an echo of a Primordial spell cast long ago. This power transforms beasts who dwell there, granting gifts of speech and reason. They develop nature-based societies unlike those found in humanoid civilizations.

Members of these communities live in unspoiled territory, where beasts and humanoids live as equals. A wildlands community is typically composed of intelligent beasts and humanoids with animalistic traits, such as beastkin, working together.

Preservation of common interests is one of the few reasons members of this heritage ever leave. When encroaching powers put a wildlands community at risk, the task of gathering information or forging diplomatic relations falls upon the more humanoid-like members of the group.
