Kitanians (Southern Alorns)

The southern Alorns of Kitania ("Kitanians") are a young people bonded by optimistic nationalism and idealistic honor. Their young nation rules open coastal plains where cavalry provides a distinct advantage. Their horses are highly regarded and sought after as the finest riding and war horses money can buy. Kitanians favor Norman cavalry weapons such as chainmail, kite shields, broadswords, lances, and longbows. While experts at mounted combat, many Kitanian cavalry techniques also have applications on foot. No Kitanian gentleman would be seen without a broadsword on his hip, and most are expert at its use. This long sword can be used to make heavy cuts while charging on horseback, and double cuts or piercing gashes on foot. Most Kitanians are moderates where religion is considered, worshiping Lunara, goddess of the moons, or Mrmym, lord of the sky.
