	Pirates can be divided by where they operate: The [[South Sea]], the [[Road of the World]] and the [[~~Long~~ Sea]] being the most frequently targeted water-bodies. Drache is most familiar with South Seas pirates, who are usually from [[Arangoth]], [[Pentland]], [[Bahija]], [[Secca]], [[Elluria]] or [[Bahr]].		Pirates can be divided by where they operate: The [[South Sea]], the [[Road of the World]] and the [[Green Sea]] being the most frequently targeted water-bodies. Drache is most familiar with South Seas pirates, who are usually from [[Arangoth]], [[Pentland]], [[Bahija]], [[Secca]], [[Elluria]] or [[Bahr]].

	The most infamous pirates are [[Korthai]] or “Wolves of the Sea”, a society of raiders that live mostly on their ships. They are known for absorbing captured prisoners into their society and witty sayings like "may the wind break from your prow and not your behind." The Korthai have many fast attack ships that can overcome heavier ships. They also have heavy ships of their own.

	Humans considered “barbaric” include the [[Assi]] and the [[~~Thontaran~~\|Thons]], mostly because they live primarily in tents, move around a lot and get into confrontations with more “civilized” travelers. That said, their fighting style can be described as barbarian as well, relying on quick, furious, unarmored attacks. The warriors of Nahuatl are the same way.
