Zerilin

The Zerilin are a group of peoples located at the Eastern coast of Tiberia.
Although they are all descendants of the same group, the different mini culture groups within the Zerilin, all have their own interests, and ways of contributing to their surroundings, be it through farming, fighting, or knowledge.
The Largest of the Zerilin Cultures at the time of writing this paper, is the Fallemi. With them being the culture group residing in the capital of Zeril, and the culture group which the Royal Family of Zeril are originally from, The Fallemi are seen as the main culture group within the greater Kingdom of Zeril, due to their skill in diplomacy, and their numbers advantage, the Fallemi were able to conquer the other Zerilin states surrounding them, creating The Kingdom of Zeril. 
== Physical attributes ==
The Zerilin are seen as Humanoid peoples, although interbreeding is rare to be seen within the society, this is only because of cultural and historic reasons, and does not mean they are unable to do so.
The average height of the Zerilin is around 5 '8 and 6' 1 (172.72 - 185 cm), with not much variation between sub groups, seeing as they do all come from the same groups of settlers.
The eyes of the Zerilin are seen with a variety of colors, the colors being Red, Green-Hazel, Brown, and Black. These eye colors are all spread throughout the population, and no singular group seems to have their own specific eye color.
Within the Zerilin population, hair colors vary between Red, Ruby, and Copper. Which points at the origin of the Zerilin being surrounded by maybe a redish environment. 
The Zerilin skin seems to vary between levels of Olive to Tanned skin color.
The lifespan of the Zerilin on average is somewhere between 90 - 120 Years, but their body does not start weakening until the age of 70, at which they lose mobility, strength, and their memory weakens. Normally after the age of 75 they are seen as too weak to work, and are not expected to show up to their job anymore.
The pregnancy time of the Zerilin is lower than that of the average human, this is due to the increase in blood flow at the time of pregnancy, which may cause pain in the heart, and make it harder to breath from time to time. The pregnancy time is 6 - 7 months, with the rare possibility of the pregnancy lasting 8 months.
== History ==
The Zerilin are native to the continent of Kejafros, they lived in society of mixed Races and cultures, the other Race being the Noctadel Elves, around 700 hundred years ago because of "The Years of Sadness", which saw the weakening of the religion, micro-conflicts, and starvation, they moved. This Era of Migration is often named “Klypsi Zott" or Klyps’s leave, because of the person spearheading the people leaving, being named Klyps. At the time of writing this, it is still a mystery what family Klyps was from.
After their arrival at the eastern coast of Norvinia, they wanted to start rebuilding their cities from the start, but after years of travel, each group and community had different Ideas for what needed to be done after the rebuilding was finished.
The infighting and conflicts between peoples, caused smaller city states to be made, instead of the large united nation which was envisioned.
After years of being split into pieces, the leader of the most populous Zerilin city state, Oleus Sto Zerilin, went on a conquest of the other states, with the Idea of in the end creating a United Kingdom, envisioned all those years ago.
After the success of the conquest, Oleus passed away from a heart attack, his son Tariri was put as his successor.
== Culture ==
Because of the many years the Zerilin peoples spent divided, each community of them developed some different Cultures and Arts. 
For example, the Klorni people see the simple life of a farmer, far from petty squabbles, or chaos, as a very fulfilling life, meanwhile On the other Hand, the Fallemi like to advance, and expand themselves, they see the farm life as boring and uninteresting, and would rather explore around the world, and get to meet new peoples and cultures.
Now of course, even after years of being split into pieces, the Zerilin peoples still share some similarities, which they have kept since before they split, for example, their clothing, and architectural style, for the most part has stayed around the same, with very small differences between each. 
=== Carvings ===
Wooden Carvings are a large part of the Zerilin arts, they normally are carved into an animal of sorts, but sometimes very skilled Carvers, may carve peoples, these people range from important Historical figures, or people who were important to the carver, like a parent or friend.
In many burials these carvings are also placed by the side of the tree which was planted atop the grave, to show what the person who has passed looked like before death, and to also show that part of that person is still with us, helping us through our life.
=== Fashion ===
The clothing of the Zerilin peoples has been mostly the same over the 700 years they’ve spent away from Kejafros, with the only changes being the adding of some light armor, around the chest area, and the right shoulder, this is because of the raids from the Ruchiryn, and Pochiryn.
The Zerilin clothing is normally made up of, soft but cheap Fabric, with a colored piece of fabric normally around the hip, which may change from area to area depending on what color is the most available, and a wristband which helps with daily activities, protecting the wrist from being damaged from physical activities and work.
