Religion
The Gurs mainly follow Selûne, but they have also been know to worship Savras, which may explain the survival of his faith during his long period of imprisonment.

Within thier own tribes, the Gurs speak an ancient dialect of Rashemi, but they are also proficient in Chondathan which they use when communicating with those outside of thier culture. The Gurs use the Thorass alphabet,

History
The Gurs are believed to be mainly of Rashemi descent due to their strong similarity with the natives of Rashemen. Fragments of lore originating from the period around the first century Dale Reckoning can be found which mention the Gurs as a group of nomads. What is known of the early Gurs suggests that they were refugees fleeing long ago war between Raumathar and Narfell.
