Ko

Excerpt from the traveling journal of Garrett von Marck:

"...the Ko, who seem to have the lion's share of wealth. Every Ko I've come across has been a merchant, a shipping financier, a money-lender, or some other variation of aristocrat, to say nothing of the well armed and armored Ko who patrol the city streets.  Their very features set them apart, being generally lithe and with high, pronounced cheekbones; sharp, fine noses; heavily lidded eyes; dark hair and darker complected skin.  The women are...singularly exotic and beautiful.  In all, Ko are undoubtedly the most beautiful people I have ever seen.  They carry themselves with a refined elegance and aloofness, and keep almost exclusively to the third level of the city.  When they do venture to the second, for business, they are accompanied with some fanfare by a liveried guard.  The few I've seen walking in the first level are surrounded by what would best be described as a private army." Ko are one of the two major human races of Southern Sirrion and are at the top of the social structure. Dark-skinned, people of the Ko race are prideful and have a tendency to look down upon other races, especially the other major race, Vascians.
