	'''Reason for Leaving Home World:''' The ~~Dermorians~~ were the ~~first to leave their home~~ world, ~~after this~~ the ~~balance on Dermoria shifted~~. ~~Animals~~, ~~once held~~ in ~~check by Dermorian hunters~~, ~~began~~ to ~~grow in population~~. ~~Running~~ out of ~~prey in their normal hunting grounds~~, ~~they began hunting~~ the Nolthrir. ~~This brought the~~ Nolthrir~~'s existence~~ to the ~~attention of the knights~~ that ~~had tried to exterminate~~ the ~~Dermorians three years previously~~. ~~The knights~~ found ~~this new prey a challenge considering their affinity for water~~. The ~~Nolthrir decided~~ to ~~leave~~ the ~~shores and just delve~~ deeper ~~into~~ the ~~seas~~. ~~This made them discover incredible~~ new ~~regions~~, ~~species and fishes~~, ~~but also~~ a ~~shimmering~~ portal of ~~pure magic enclosed in~~ a ~~magical~~ air ~~bubble~~. ~~The portal had been studied for some~~ months, ~~until~~ one of ~~their~~ elders had a vision ~~and told them their future was lying laid out before them beyond that~~ portal. ~~Many decided to leave~~, ~~while~~ others ~~stayed~~ in ~~Dermoria~~.~~<br><br>~~
			'''Social structure and organization:''' No notable differences from the one in Yliakum, see above.

			'''Reason for Leaving Home World:''' The Nolthrir lived in the deep of the great seas, only rarely coming to the surface. Seaweeds and aquatic animals were plentiful and the water was illuminated by the world above. This lasted until a foul marine current, never seen before, made of black mud and ashes started to contaminate the sea. The underwater flora began to die out first, unable to survive in the befouled water. The smallest sea creatures soon began to disappear as well, as the disappearance of the plants left them nothing to feed upon. As those died out, the larger fish that fed on them soon died or disappeared, searching for new sources of food. Piece by piece, life was disappearing from the once bountiful seas that the Nolthrir had inhabited for so long. The Nolthrir had no choice but to dive ever deeper, seeking clean water and escaping the increasingly hungry predators that were not bothered by the destruction. Thanks to their explorations, they found places of great wonder and creatures unlike any they had seen before, but even these places did not last. The ash, drawn ever deeper by dark and gritty whirlpools, began to destroy even these havens, so the Nolthrir swam deeper yet. Eventually the explorers came upon a new marvel. Deep below the surface they found a region of pure water, untouched by even the deepest whirlpools. Strange new fish and other creatures were abundant, despite the depth. The most remarkable discovery was at the center of the clean water, where a glowing portal of magical energy sat within a bubble of air that did not rise or dissipate. After months of study, one of the elders reported having had a vision of a new life for the Nolthrir on the far side of the portal. While some Nolthrir remained, others trusted in the vision and traveled through the portal to their promised new life.

Some of them also use potions to induce heightened emotional stats to take themselves to their limits. Dispersive, they tend to embark in many projects but finish very few of them. They become serious and work tirelessly only when their survival is at stake. Nolthrir prefer to gain social status rather than money, and tend to like being in big and always changing groups. The more people they know the more they are satisfied. Their personal connections are always changing, they have few groups that remain tied together for a long time.
