Tribes in the Great Northern wood. Ancestral enemies with the Kellit and Monnit tribes. (Hunter gatherers) Isolationist hating anyone who enters their territory. Ritual death by torture and cannibalism are common. The Obucc are the most feared of the northern tribes. Abutting the Mountains of the Sun much of their energy is expended fighting against the Orcs living therein. Fierce in battle and quite skilled in a number of offensive magics it is probably a good thing they are so isolationist. What little trade they engage in is solely through the Jurri and primarily for Iron and steel weapons. Even the Jurri, with whom they are on quite good terms, are fair game if they violate the territory the Obucc have reserved for their trade use. "Ah yes, I know you have long traded with us. It is too bad we did not pay you more so you would have been a bit fatter! Cheer up, I will send the money for the arrowheads to your family. Now be sure to scream good and loud to please the gods, and hopefully Jodur. If you are very good I may be able to ask him for his second daughter's hand. You are lucky to have come at such an auspicious time!"
