Old Lapal

The settlers of Halruaa before the Netherese arrived, they were simple mountainfolk who had escaped slavery to the yuan-ti several generations back.
Proud horsemen, many of their buildings motifs and artwork from this time often depicted horses and horseriders.
==Architecture==
Old Lapal buildings tend to be made from Sagaro wood and fieldstone or mudbrick. They were known for their appartment-style living, as they felt a safety in small burrows inherited from generations of slaves.
==Lapal Magic==
Deemed the "Old Religion" Lapal magic is reminiscent of Native American shamanism and Aborigine animism, it is currently known to be the (forbidden) Voodoo.
It is closely tied to wild sorcerers and helpful witch doctors. The Magehounds usually leave the witch doctors alone, but do check up on them regularly. Sorcerers are hunted like prey.
