 "It's been our custom since before the Beginning of Days that we shed blood to remember and honour our dead. We used to sacrifice animals for that purpose. The more barbaric tribes back then would start fights with the purpose of shedding blood to satisfy the custom. The Metal Lord put an end to that. Rather than ask us to abandon a practice we had held for as long as anyone could recall, it changed instead to this small token. We honour our dead with a small offering of blood. We can obey the Metal Lord and still remember our past."

	Before the Beginning of Days, the Kasheran people used to steal people from what is now Jiinal. The Jiinalese are also darker skinned, but they’re dominantly blond. While this practice was in place, blond children would often be born to the Kasheran people. The gene for blond hair remained in the population although it’s very recessive now and doesn’t assert itself as often as it used to. <br>		Before the Beginning of Days, the Kasheran people used to steal people from what is now Jiinal.

The Kasheran people of Shanshiire are predominantly dark skinned with black hair and dark eyes (usually browns and greys). Once in awhile, one will have lighter eyes or a blond one will pop up. While lighter eyes aren’t all that remarkable, blond hair is unfavourable. 
Before the Beginning of Days, the Kasheran people used to steal people from what is now Jiinal. The Jiinalese are also darker skinned, but they’re dominantly blond. While this practice was in place, blond children would often be born to the Kasheran people. The gene for blond hair remained in the population although it’s very recessive now and doesn’t assert itself as often as it used to. 
Blonds are unlucky in the Kasheran culture. Exceptions are only made for blonds born outside their country, but even then they’re treated with a degree of suspicion. The current Crown Prince attempted to dispel that superstition by marrying a princess of Jiinal.

Wealthier families will sometimes keep them, depending on their social status at the time. Blonds are encouraged to not marry or have offspring in an attempt to wipe out the unfavourable gene. 

== Surnames ==
Kasheran surnames were once heavily gendered. This trend has mostly faded away, but it’s still in use by the nobility and some of the upper classes. 
A male is indicated with the prefix fal while the feminine is nil.
