Kor are humanoids with white, blue, or grey skin who lead a nomadic life, are always on the move, and value personal abilities, skills, and strength of a character far more than any material asset they might possess or that they found along the way.
While they are constantly on the move, they do cherish the meaning behind locations, and traveling the pilgrimage routes that can take decades puts them into all sorts of dangers, and it is no wonder why so many perish during these journeys.
The life they lead is far more dangerous than one might expect but the very nature of their kind makes sure the skills they possess are put to good use, and the situations some go through make their names known, names like Lumo, Zobhu, and Yiphi.

These humanoid creatures are natural nomads, whose life’s philosophy guides them anywhere they go. Preferring their own strength and ability over material gains, everyone is expected to be able to fight all struggles they encounter. While some other species might find them egoistical or even too proud, the Kor have a deep understanding of locations, especially sacred, where they cherish the history of the place. Think about how and where the character was born, who were their parents, what troubles did they encounter even at an early age, how those situations molded them into a person they are today, and create a name worthy of an exciting nomadic life they lead where every turn of a road could change their life forever.
