Culture and Locations
Njidittu is a tribal confederation. It is ruled by a zhadas chieftain who acts as both a king and a warlord and has other warlords beneath him, with Sunkhu shamans to advise their rule and keep everyone in touch with their ancestors. Sunkhu shamanism emphasises that everyone must atone for the wrongdoings of their ancestors by bringing honour and glory to their clans and keeping bad spirits at bay. Njidittuu are known for being strongly unified and enjoying their defensive position nestled against the Amber Mountains, though this means they don't have direct access to the archroad. Their capital is Butrsa.
Njidittu is mostly dry grassland with some arid shrubland and arid desert at lower altitudes and montane forest at higher altitudes, up near the Amber Mountains and eastern Khatsanaras. The lowlands are known as the Amber Flatlands, and the Tazhu and Cudu Rivers flow from the mountains. The Adenen River makes up most of its northeastern border.
