Snow Treader (Patreon)

In the frozen north of Uneria, there lies a cluster of tribes that have been living there since time immemorial. They're called the Nixujo people, or Snow Treaders. 

They're distinctive from Unerians who live in the warmer climate by having white skin and hair, which seems to be acquired traits from livng on the snow for hundred of generations.

The Nixujo people are hardy and durable, they can go naked under a freezing weather and not bothered by it, even children play outside in the snow without much warm clothes. The only time a Snow Treader cover their whole body is when going to combat wild monsters and other tribes in the region.

They're really good at fighting up close, so good that only after the invention of firearms was Uneria Empire able to subjugate them. Now the Snow Treader tribes are a part of  the Empire as a whole, they still find it difficult to catch up with the current technology. Tho the appearance of personal energy shields made their combat prowess relevant again on the field, they still haven't any plans to detach from the Empire yet.

Snow Treaders make for good soldiers and mercenaries, don't complain about stuffs, also fierce in bed, a good companion really.
