Groups of Interest in Maryland

The British - English colonists have occupied most of the eastern shore, displacing most of the Usan who lived there, plus Baltimore, Annapolis, Revel Grove, and various others.

The Poe - Raven people north of Baltimore. Carrion-eaters and death worshipers. Not at all evil. They see death as pinnacle achievement of life. Fancy tombs/tombstones/etc. They pay for dead bodies of sentient creatures so they may intern them and save them for "The Day of Resurrection". The surprising overlap between this and the Universalist (Anglican) Church has allowed them to integrate their religious beliefs in with the English culture without religious discord.

The Norman - Hedgehog people (small) (yes I know, hedgies don't live in US.). They keep mostly to themselves and can be a bit, well... prickly. Their village is roughly halfway between Georgetown and Ellicott City. Idyllic farming community, like the perfect English countryside.

The Canibri - Fox people (small). They have heavily adopted Tudor and Arthurian styles and legends adapting much of their social structure. Small but fierce.

The Crougar - Cougar people. Western Maryland. Proud hunter guys. Far-ranging scouts. (Tabaxi)

The Monax - Groundhog people. By reputation, they have all the negative stereotypes attributed to modern-day gypsies.
