Primitive tribes of the Bjoulsae River area?[edit]

Not too sure about something here. It's mentioned that some form of primitive tribes live in this region in the description of High Rock, as well as in the in-game book "The Mirror". My question is are the tribesmen of Breton, Redguard, a mixture of the two, or of unknown lineage? In "The Mirror" it mentions the wearing of a turban, which could elude to Redguards (assuming the redguards of the Alik'r wear turbans). — Unsigned comment by 68.230.124.122 (talk) at 06:28 on 15 September 2009 (GMT)

I'm looking at the three illustrations devoted to them in the 1st PGE. They clearly aren't Redguards, but we shouldn't assume that they are Bretons either. The playable races are not rigid, absolute, or necessarily comprehensive. The Bjoulsae River people appear to be inspired by some sort of steppe nomadic people, if I had to guess. They use crude axes, scimitars and lances and wear furs and animal skins along with armor.132.162.215.68 17:00, 15 September 2009 (UTC)
Ah. Thank you very much. For God-knows what reason, I have become interested in the peoples that aren't mentioned all that much, such as the Bjoulsae tribes, the reachmen (although there is some lore devoted to them), the (former) humans of Akavir, ect.
I appreciate your help on this
