Roma

Page history last edited by Paradox 5 years, 6 months ago

The Roma are a nomadic people that travel the lands of Salem. Once they had a land they called home, Kintala, but this was lost to them when the worlds rejoined as it was in the Netherworld. The Roma travel as families only meeting up for the odd funeral or arranged marriages.

 

Death in Roma circle is considered impure and the deceased goods and immediate family seen as for a period of time impure after death, any goods that are not buried with deceased are then handed out to poor (or sold for modest sums, so they claim).

 

Marriages are always arranged many years in advance, the oldest women in each many family get together when large Rama gatherings take place and ensure the families don’t interbreed. Any relationships outside the Roma community is strictly forbidden.

 

The Roma follow the one true god like most of Salem, but their customs and traditions are wildly at variance with the established church. They are a superstitious community, they love their curses and often bind them with strong magic to ensure they come true.

 

Making their way moving goods, doing odd jobs, telling fortune, they never stay long in one place, never stay long enough to make friends outside their community and so are not trusted by those that do not understand their ways.

 

They have been imprisoned in camps by Thules and persecuted by the Pope for their interpretation of Wissen, but they survive.
