who.are.the.wraiths?

"Survive."

This is the only law among the forest tribe of wraiths- to do whatever it takes to make sure that you save your own skin. If everyone does just that, then you need not to worry about or rely on your comrades.

While this may seem a bit harsh, know that wraiths are a very independent people. While they do work in groups to accomplish a common goal, they separate themselves from each other for safety. If one is lost, the others can still go on without being in danger. It is this mindset that make these people among the most feared on the planet, as well as the best task-force around.

However, due to their seemingly superhuman ability to... "liberate" valuables, they are frowned upon by other humans. To avoid conflict where necessary, they live off in isolated locations, with thick forests being their first pick. The trees provide shelter, and only work to help a wraith's "stealth and surprise" combat style. Few outsiders dare step foot into Patrimony Forest for this reason.

Despite their rough exterior and history, violence is a last resort for wraiths. If you don't pose any threat to them, (and maybe catch one in a good mood,) they've been known to guide lost hikers outside of their turf, and just as swiftly vanish from whence they came.
