The Reclure are descendants of the always mysterious, now no more Taranta; however, little Tarantan culture has survived the Latest End and the New Dawn. The Reclure survive and prosper by putting down others. War and dominance is very much their culture. The only people that they refuse to wage against are those who still live in Holt (Zips) (There are two possibilities for this, which will be talked about in another section, perhaps lore?).
Their warlike culture is odd, for if looking at their culture, their stories, music, art, etc., you will see that they obsess over expanding in one direction: North.
The Reclure tend to be stronger than the average human, but it is believed that the culture in which they live is responsible for that, and by no means are they truly different from any other humans. This is strange, considering the confirmed relation with the Taranta, who have had connections to nature, and who were disproportionately strong compared to other human breeds.
It is a male-dominated culture that the Reclure practice. Women are almost always seen as sacred, for from them comes the next generation. They are held in high reverence, but as a side effect women are not allowed to do things the men can, like work or fighting. There are a small handful of exceptions. Female fighters who have proven themselves to their male counterparts are allowed to practice combat, but only one female was ever allowed on the front lines, and that is because she happened to be the nation's elder and leader.
The title of Elder is always held by women. Their word has some good amount of influence over the nation's actions.
