Calm, determined. Ferocious in battle. The Lossoth are a distant northern peoples, in our case inspired by Inuit and Sámi cultures. They are known for building snow-houses, using ice-skating as a mode of transportation, and not too much else. For more inspiration, read http://tolkiengateway.net/wiki/Lossoth 

They speak the Common Tongue, but not well. Their script has several lines written in a fantasy language vaguely based on sounds from various American native languages. These hunters revere (among other, lesser spirits) ‘Arûm’, the spirit of the hunt, their version of the Vala Oróme, who visited their ancestors a very long time ago, now remembered only through disciplined oral traditions. They refer to themselves as yninn - first-men, a word vaguely resembling the Sindarin edain, suggesting a very early encounter with the Elves millennia ago. The Lossoth generally hate orcs and have in the past worked with the ‘good-aligned’ Men of Arnor and more recently the Dúnedain, but they can and have been ‘bought’, either through promise of wealth or threat of violence, by the forces of Sauron.

Accent: ‘Native’, in a very broad sense. We want to communicate the fact that these people are the first inhabitants of a distant land largely unknown to the other residents of Middle-earth.
