The Ori people are a group of half-elves native to Oriori Island. They are known for typically eschewing the use of technological innovations in their daily lives, although they do not have an aversion to such. Their recorded history spans approximately 500 or years, with their origin myths relating a tale of mass exodus from their original home in the sky. In the myth, the gods had become angry that the Ori people had tried to become like them and banished the Ori to drown beneath the sea. One of the gods took pity on them, and dredged Oriori island from below the waves for the Ori people to live on.

The Ori priesthood, which guides the people, maintains close ties to the natural world and are considered by many to practice a form of druidism.
