-The bane of spelling students across [[Sapience]], the '''Aeraithian Falls''' are a community of winged humanoids on the southern cliffs of the [[Vashnars]].  The inhabitants are only five feet tall, are covered in thick brown fur, and have a small pair of wings on their back that they use for gliding.  Their faces are marked by large ears, small noses and bright blue eyes.  The village itself was long undiscovered because of its isolated location, and little is known of the ways of the Aeraithians.  They seem to practice a religion which holds the water of the falls sacred, as well as the element of Air.  Notable figures around the village are '''Elnai''', the village Elder, '''Lordar''', the Watcher, '''Hemternos''', the hunter, '''Isidore''', the school teacher, and the village Shaman.  The residents do not speak particularly good Common, and their words are often changed to sound more like their native tongue.  For example, the word "nice" is instead pronounced "nitsk."

+=Geography=
+The Falls can be found at the end of an icy river that flows through the Vashnars.  The village itself is built vertically into the cliffs overlooking the [[Notian Sea]].  The layout of town can be quite confusing to outsiders, as it is quite different from traditional villages.
+=People=
+The village is inhabited by a race known as the Aeraithians.  They are a short people, only five feet tall.  They are covered in a thick, brown fur and have a pair of small wings on their back.  They are unable to fly, but use the wings to glide from building to building.  Notable Aeraithians include:
+#[[Lordar]], the Watcher
+#[[Elnai]], the Elder
+#[[Hemternos]], the Hunter
+#[[Isidore]], the school teacher
+=Culture=
+The Aeraithians have their own native language, which is not well known by the outside world.  They speak some common, but many of the village speak a somewhat bastardized version, twisting words to sound more like their native tongue.  For example, the word "nice" becomes "nitsk."  The inhabitants practice a religion that holds the waters of the Falls sacred, and also reveres the element of Air.  A local shaman seems to be the religious leader, spending his time creating magical concoctions.  The main food source for the village is fish, which are collected by fisherman on the rooftops.  The village leaders are friendly and welcoming to outsiders, though the average villager may be a bit shy.
-The village layout is rather strange, because it is built vertically up the cliffs, and is often confusing for visitors who are accustomed to flat layouts.  The native people are very welcoming to outsiders who find their way to the village.
