Like all of the native American backgrounds for PCs included in Northern Crown, the Shawnee are cast as a heroic, larger-than-life version of their historical selves. My take on them is that they are a far-traveled people, having come to the central woodlands from the south after long wanderings, and that they are famed traders, scouts, hunters, healers, and guardians of the living earth. They are suspicious of arcane magic, having a longstanding enmity with witches, and they have a complex system of clans and political subdivisions, each with different roles in the community.Hope that satisfies your curiosity!Yes, Gloriana is the half-fey daughter of Auberon and Elizabeth, who returned from Faerie long after her mother's death, kicked Oliver Cromwell out of power, and brought back the Old Ways to England, now renamed Albion. It's true what John Nephew said about there being only limited info concerning Europe, but there's a lot of background material that just didn't make it into the book, and I'd love to make it available someday for people interested in that part of my game world.</blockquote>
