Pellas Troth

The Pellas Troth are yellow-skinned fox-like humanoids with enormous pointed ears, who stand about three feet tall. They dress in loose robes, with many items of hammered copper. Although armed with short bows and daggers, the Pellas Troth prefer bargaining to fighting, and are willing to make a deal with almost anyone. They use currency of triangular copper and silver coins, strung on rawhide thongs through holes at each corner as though they were beads. Money and bargaining power is strictly matriarchal, and a Pellas Troth’s coinstrings make a pleasant jangle when she walks.

The Pellas Troth speak with yipping voices. They are ancient enemies of the Mahmat Troth, and believe that the number of Mahmat Troth teeth collected during a lifetime determines ones station in the afterlife. They believe themselves to be the true followers of The Black Goat, and regularly try to drive the Mahmat Troth from the valley where She resides in order to take their place.
