CH186 Wildkin
***
Wildkin...
It's a term—often used derogatorily—by the humans of the Pangea Realm to describe humanoid or demi-human races who, in their view, display more savagery than civilised intellect.
The usage of the term is incredibly loose, often hinging on the speaker's personal bias or subjective interpretation of what constitutes "savagery".
Orcs, Ogres, Trolls, Goblins, Snakekin, Goatmen, Taurus... as long as a race was perceived to possess more primal aggression than cultured sophistication—at least by human standards—they were labelled as Wildkin.
Supporters of the term argue that it aptly encapsulates the primal essence of these beast-like peoples. However, more often than not, it obscures the fact that these races are not monolithic. Not all members of these races are mindless savages.
In truth, many individuals and tribes among these so-called Wildkin are highly intelligent and civilised.
