-|Introduction=The Thavarin are a human-descended people native to the Gosterralands, a rugged and temperamental region of cliffs, mists, and restless tides along the western edge of [[Orethil]]. Spiritually, the Thavarin are aligned with [[Evrelth]], the [[Ascendant Spirit]] of Emotion. Evrelth represents the entire range of human feeling, both ecstatic and despairing, and is believed to manifest in the sea’s shifting mood, the silence of low mist, or the cry of gulls across wind-cut cliffs. Through this influence, the Thavarin have developed a worldview in which emotional truth carries more weight than tradition or permanence.

-The Thavarin make little effort to conceal their inner states. Anger, grief, love, and awe are openly expressed in both daily life and structured rites. While their customs may appear volatile to outsiders, their internal systems of emotional ritual, symbolic attire, and communal balance offer a stable and enduring framework for collective identity.
