Raen Lore - Yunas13 - 08-30-2015
Need information on my Raen, where can I look up tribes and lore. I can't find much on them. Xaela seems to be the popular race for RP. I've read there are Xaela Tribes but I can't find any sites. I've read a little of the official Au Ra lore page.Â
Thank you guys!

There's not a ton to go on, but most of what we know about the Raen is that they've largely abandoned nomadic life and have settled in and around the areas surrounding Doma. Doma, as well as the rest of Othard, has been under Garlean rule for 25 years. However, recently Doma rebelled against Garlemald and the empire razed the city-state to set an example for the rest of Othard. This is the lore reasoning for the recent influx of Doman (and Raen) refugees coming to Eorzea.
Here's a few lore links you may find helpful!

There's actually quite a bit in-game for Raen examples. The three Raen that are introduced in the story are from ninja clans and/or high ranking members of society in Doma. The 50-60 ninja quests give a lot for Raen...Xaela are the ones lacking in my opinion. In general, the Raen are not trusting of Shinobi as their land was was betrayed to Garleans by Gekkai (and Karasu kinda). Not all Raen have left Doma as the princess and her servant who came to Eorzea for the 50-60 ninja quest were searching for stollen relics and were going to go back.Â
For in-game examples (which is how I learn best) I suggest going through that questline. The ninjas teach you A LOT about Doma.
