Barako Tribe

Description
Located in the north-western high-plains of Eodon, the Barako Tribe is quite different from the other tribes of Eodon. For one, the Barako represent a Caucasian race similar to the Europeans shortly after the ice-ages. Additionally, the Barako live quite isolated and have only little contact to the other tribes, mostly ignoring them. The one exception is the Pindiro Tribe living to the east of them, with which they are in constant arguing with, often resulting in open warfare and hatred. The one memorable thing about the tribe is, that all their chiefs are traditionally female.

History
At the time of Savage Empire, the tribe was in somewhat of a fix. The shaman had left the tribe years ago and a huge gorilla had kidnapped Halisa, the daughter of the acting chieftain Halawa. Halawaa made it clear that she would only join the other tribes against the Myrmidex threat if her daughter is returned safely. The Avatar thus had to gain entrance to the gorilla plateau and free Halisa from a massive silverback by killing the beast. This managed to win over Halawa for uniting the tribes against the Myrmidex threat, which included setting aside their feud with the Pindiro Tribe.

Also the Avatar found a man named Shamuru, noting how similar he was to their friend from britannia, Shamino.
