Jungle folk are shorter, more squat, dark-skinned, brown-eyed, seemingly simpler people - but quite clever hunters, rangers, rogues, workers, and Barbarians in the wilder regions. They live throughout the Jungle at a low population density.
Mostly they have fooled Avaloners into thinking they are a child-like and simple people. Actually, the Jungle People are savvy traders and intelligent opponents. They have forged alliances with a few Avalonish merchant families and the Adventurers' Guild, for whom they provide trackers and guides. The Jungle People are ruled by local chiefs and advised by a network of respected druids.
Although clearly related to the Mountain People, especially in language, the Jungle People do not have the same spiritual malaise. They respect the Cam gods but more often worship aspects of Nature under Druidic guidance.
