Corritan

The Corritans are the native people of Corcillon. A long history of warfare and conflict had divided the Corritans into several different tribes, each controlling a portion of land on the island.

Jae'lin
The Jae'lin tribes takes it name from the Corritan god of nature. They are by far the most developed tribe and control large areas of land (Until the Corcillonians begin colonization). They see the Lili'sk tribe as savage and untrustworthy, and therefore have little tolerance for them. The Jae'lin are sympathetic for the Qaliqan tribe but do not offer support as they do not agree with their strategies of warfare. The Jae'lin tribe is regarded as a soft target for the Lili'sk tribe, but that contrasts the massive Jae'lin military.

Population: Vol 1: 11,000 / Vol 2: 8,900 / Vol 3: 12,000 / Vol 4: 13,600

Lili'sk
The Lili'sk tribe took it's name after the Corritan god of hunting. They are very competitve and often break treaties with the other tribes for their own gain. The Lili'sk tribe is very heavily focused on a strong military and is constantly defending its borders and attempting to expand their territory. Seeing themselves as under the superior god, they believe strongly in their actions.

Population: Vol 1: 6,000 / Vol 2: 4,300 (Disbanded)

Qaliqan
The Qaliqan tribe was the last to be formed after the fall of the Ishai Empire, consisting of Lili'sk exiles and freed Miryaan slaves. Small in numbers, the Qaliqan tribe managed to exceed in combat by using psychological warfare methods and poisons. Some of these methods included formations that would cause soldiers to appear much great in number, flaying enemy prisoners and displaying their bodies, and fatally maiming enemies instead of killing them instantly. Though they were conflicted amongst themselves about the morality of these tactics, it seemed to be the only way they could fend off the much larger tribes.

Population: Vol 1: 3,000 / Vol 2: 2,400 / Vol 3: 1,000 / Vol 4: 1,250

Miryaan
After the fall of the Ishaai Empire, individuals of high status quickly broke off into their own tribe. Being able to expand fast with their immense wealth and influence, they became a big target for the other tribes which deliberately worked with one another to take down the Miryaans. Every Miryaan was given the choice of slavery or execution, and the slaves were distributed equally among each tribe as a form of payment for their contribution. Population: Previously 1,200

Before Arrival of Corcillonians

First Encounter
The first encounter between Corritans and Corcillonians was not hostile, but rather welcoming as the Corcillonians had arrived in a crippled state that did not pose any threat. The Corritans gave food and provided shelter to the Corcillonians, creating a stable relationship between the two. At this time, the Corritan tribes were not preoccupied in any conflict, so the word was quickly spread across the entire island of the Corcillonians' arrival. The chieftains of each tribe debated what to do next with the Corcillonians, sparking small conflict between tribes.
