What We Know So Far - Enemies of the Empire

Barbarians and Orcs
The role of the barbarians is to serve as opponents to the Empire. There will be several distinct Barbarian powers: tribes, nations or kingdoms as appropriate. The primary requirement of barbarians is to look cool in massive numbers in battles, to provide immersive, exciting, dramatic combat encounters, whilst allowing for a full range of interaction when it is appropriate.

Most of the Barbarians powers that surround the Empire are orcs, not humans. Other races exist in the world that will be described in the final setting. Players will encounter representatives of these powers over time.

For what's it's worth.. the 3 major tribes that begin the game as Barbarians are known:

Thule
Druj
Jotun

We don't know much about them yet, other than it was the Thule who were likely the tribe responsible for Empress Britta's death.

Jotuns? And they frown over Thor's hammer?
(For those not in the know, Jotuns or The Jotunn are the Ice-Giants from Norse Mythology)

*In before - Yeah I know its a very different kettle of fish - a race taken from a mythology Vs. a very poignant symbol of a belief. Was a nice surprise anyhow
