- Trofandalorian War cry

The Trofandalorians are race of warriors and knights native the the planet Koldenwelt and serve as mercanaries, warriors, and Black-smiths.

History
The Trofandalorians came into sentience along time ago, in the Forests and swamps of Koldenwelt. They at first where divided by 14 tribes. Soon, a Ruler, Trofandalore the First United his race under his banner, against his enemy, Dresacar. He defeated Dresacar's seven tribes, and exiled them. Now the Trofandlaorians where free to build. They protected the Fernia Domain with care, and created a huge, fortified city.

They lived as Mercs, working for other armies and learning new languges and ideals from others. However, other races started to treat them as savages, cannibals, and knuckle draggers. They became very Grouchy towards those that treated them like this, but found other allies as well.

Conquest
Trofandalorians recently reorganized under a new Ruler, Trofandalore the Indomitable, who changed their ways of life. Instead of just living as a small empire with 3 cities under their command, they would move out and conqueror as much as the planet as possible.

Culture
Trofandalorians are a race set in tradition. However, they are open to new ideals and accpeting of new races. However, abuse by other Koldenwelt empires has embittered their people, and they tend to be more weeiry of others.

Trofandalorians believe in diplomacy, but have no qualms about going to war. They believe war strengthens the people, and even when not in war, they prepare for it.

They are ruled by 7 tribe rulers. These are the 7 that supported Trofandalore the First in his war against the Eviler ones of their race.

Xavoenus
Another race found around the forests and swamps, where the Xavoenus. They where smart anf great scouts, hunters, and metal workers, but where very weak compared to the Trofandalorians. The Trofandalorians where strong, but their bodies where not built for speed.

The Xavoenus have some controll over elements, which, for example, results in certain natural abilities. Ar-Xavoenus have resistance to heat, Ti-Xavoenus have resistance to Cold weather. Tor-Xavoenus of Iron have greater endurance then others.

The Xavoenus allow the Trofandalorians to settle in other regions, giving them their immunity to certian elements, allowing them to settle in hotter and colder areas.

Society
Trofandalorians and their Xavoenus allies enjoy a quiet, simple life. When not fighting in wars for money or their defence, the Trofandalorians are hunters, farmers, and Lumber jacks.

Few are traders, though those that are extremely rich from it.

Equipment and weapons
Trofandalorians wear their heavy armor, even in daiely life. However, when doing anything,like mining or farming, they prefer not to wear it around, as it is heavy and extremely suffocating.

Their main weapon is a short stabing blade called a Co'taris. This is often yielded with a round shield, called a Rhodus that is durable and hardy, and offers extra protection. They also carry a Spear, called A Protas, which is long, and allows them to form a wall of spears for defence against mounted targets and charging foes.

They are experts with the bow, and invented a Long Bow, used for extra long range combat, that bombarb foes with arrows. They also make use of the Crossbow, called a Baraki. Their Crossbow can fire about 3 arrows at once, but is made for large army supression, not single targets. They use a Throwing Spear, called a Pilas.

In war, they will throw the Pilas at targets to soften them up, and then charge with their swords ready to slash and stab.

Religion
Trofandalorians mainly worship Mosrathos, Goddess of Light, and Orde, The God of Iron and War. Their Dark God is called Terkariendax, The Lord of Night, and the Fallen Brother of Mosrathos.

Orde is believed to be a collussus od some sort, though few have seen him, and very few seem to believe he exsists.
