Vasilit

Vasilit, formerly known as the Vasil, was a small nation located in the Cassaric Forest in the Northern Torso region of Magnamia. The nation evolved through the Age of Unification, Great Destruction, and Age of Rebirth into the formally recognized nation of Vasilit. The Vasil people were one of Magnamia's oldest groups with its tribe inhabiting the Northern Torso region since the Tribal Period and were remained a tribal nation longer than any other Magnamian tribe. The Vasil are deeply routed by tradition are bound to their ancestral land which put them at constant odds with the war tribes of the Torso and eventually the Piriskins that came to be known as their arch rival. They are one of the few groups that found success in abiding to the tribal ways of nomadic practices to survive deep into the Age of Unification before ever settling down permanently in the Cassaric Forest. They would become known for their fierce warriors who stained their skin with war paint as a sign of honor and experience and were the first people to domesticate and ride the black volfen of the Cassaric. Their close proximity to The Head as well put them at odds with the Sommish people but led to more alliances than conflicts as the Piriskins were a threat to both groups. The Vasilit nation would be short lived as the population died out near the end of the First Age from years of war and a plague that killed many of their people, causing those who survived to scatter across the continent and even to Iona as the Western Migration had begun near their end.
