Androphagi (Constancian: Man-eaters) - the term used by Constancians to describe inhabitants of the ungoverned portions of Eura. Characterised as regressed barbarians and cannibals, the Androphagi live in scattered polities varying in size from diminutive nomad bands comprised of two or three family groups all the way up to ex-slave townships capable of banding together and putting on the pretence of statehood.
The manners of the Androphagi are more savage than those of any other race, save the Bassarid worshippers of Dionysus in their frenzy. They neither observe justice, nor are they governed, by any laws. They are rootless-wanders, and although their dress is Babkhan, they are without religion. The language which they speak is a canting patter that has many recognisable Babkhi words sprinkled amongst it but is quite dissimilar to that harsh barking language spoken in Raspur. Unlike most other races on Eura, they do not trouble to disguise the fact that they are cannibals.—Kalkul Sahib, Report to the Permanent Standing Committee on the Conditions of the Euran Interior (09.III.1670)
