Bedine

At a Glance

The Bedine are a group of tribal humans found only in Anauroch.


The Xaeyruudh Campaign

One source says they are the descendants of those who survived the destruction of Anauria, Asram, and Hlondath. Another source contradicts this, making them travelers from Zakhara; a suggestion strongly supported by the Bedine speaking Midani. Elsewhere, the Bedine are said to speak Oloushinn, which is described as being an old language… implying that it’s older than the survivor states of Netheril.

For my campaign, the Bedine are descendants of a Zakharan tribe. Oloushinn is a dialect of Midani which was spoken by the tribe before they inadvertently relocated to Anauroch; the language has evolved by necessity over the centuries but it would still be recognizable if someone from their old tribe were to find them here.
