Hildr Major

Overview
The Norstros people of Hildr Major are a hardy and often brutish (to some) but generally fair folk. They are a product of a spartan lifestyle on a harsh frontier world filled with monstrous creatures that would kill a man without a second thought. They are distrustful of the outside world, but incredibly loyal to their kin. As a result they have a somewhat tribal outlook. This lead to the formation of clans which developed into the current jarldoms. They are widely separated on the surface of Hildr Major but also understand that they must work together to provide security. This lead to the creation of a feudal empire where the Jarls elect a high king like the vikings of old.

The Norstros are more of a cultural identity than a ethnic or racial identity. Any variety of human or otherwise can be Norstrosian. Despite their distrust of foreign influences they accept outsiders with open arms. Anyone who pulls their weight for the group is a fellow shield brother or sister. The people who call Hildr home are from every background imaginable. It doesn't matter what they did before they joined the Norstros. They're accepting of all as long as the person is honorable and doesn't repeat past crimes.
