JàrnFòlk
The JàrnFòlk are a society of deep periphery denizens approximately 250 light years spin-ward of Columbus. The JàrnFòlk inhabit four worlds - Hamar, Trondheim, Ålborg and Hofn - which are loosely governed in a confederation-style council. As the JàrnFòlk confederation is rather weak, power within JàrnFòlk society mainly resides with nine familial clan that make up JàrnFòlk population.
The JàrnFòlk speak a language most akin to Old Norse. It is unknown if the JàrnFòlk maintain many more Old Norse traditions, however the JàrnFòlk do decorate their space-faring vessels in curvilinear artwork frequently seen in Terran Old Norse ruins.
JàrnFòlk society is generally not particularly aggressive, tending to engage in hostilities only when demanded by a blood feud between families. Killings not related to pre-established blood feuds are viewed with extreme intolerance, and perpetrators are mercilessly hunted for any transgressions.
