The Salawi are coastal peoples from northeastern Idiri, their society comprising a mix of Xhalantu and Sirdabi heritage and culture but having nevertheless developed a distinct identity since the days of the early caliphate.
The prosperity of the Salawi derives chiefly from maritime trade with southwest Riendu and the demicontinent of Jalanjhur, and many of them live in bustling commercial cities built directly on the coast. Further into the interior, pastoral life in small village communities is common, and many people also work in the mines that provide the region's famed high-quality iron. They have an enterprising independent spirit, and are the pre-eminent sailors and shipbuilders of the Sirdabi Caliphate.
Appearance
Salawi typically have very dark complexions ranging all the way from a deep chocolate brown to a lustrous blue-black, with tightly curled to kinky hair. Their eyes may be a range of browns, including deep gold and amber.
