Brief History
The land of Nao is a vast and large place with many hidden villages and tribes. Humans largely populate the area but there are other creatures, though some good and bad. At one point in time a few animal tribes were close to the humans and sought to protect them. Having been around them for so long the tribe members slowly became more human like, some standing on two feet, dressing in clothes, and even talking their language. As magic was introduced some even began to obtain a human like form that they could transform into and hold. These few tribes lived in peace with the humans, but with all good comes the bad and the greatest of misunderstandings can occur.
Not all tribes favored the humans like some did and they considered anyone who corresponded with humans as enemies and traitors. Among these tribes they organized an assault against the humans and attacked all three of their major cities at once. The tribes that were on good terms with the humans helped them in the heat of the moment to fight back but it still did little good. Many human lives were lost in the battle and their cities left in ruins and being that humans are easily confused and swayed creatures they took the assault to heart and considered anyone that wasn’t truly human an enemy. Fearing that which they didn’t understand.
As the years went on the humans rebuilt their cities placing great walls around their perimeter and fending away anyone who dared to enter that wasn’t the same as them. Some even began fur trades, hiring mercenaries to hunt down tribal villages capturing many women and children to all be sent to slaughter for their pelts or to be sold as slaves. In the peek of primitive technology some were even captured from experiments, held for days in labs without food or water. Some were released and some managed to escape, but most were never seen again. Animal tribes became fewer and fewer as they lived in fear of being captured and killed so they went into hiding keeping their locations secret.
