 Druskai tend to worship one of two Gods primarily, unsurprisingly divided based on their overall cultural group of either Vethcairn or Korkann. The Korkann worship the Outsider who they believe offered them the gift of their race, separated from the other mortals of Atharen. Their totemic sacrifices and effigies are dedicated to him, as well as each of their successful journeys across the deep sea. These Druskai tend not to be immensely religious, and given that this is the norm of their race, they vary in their affinities and many embrace other Gods of other Pantheons as well.
-The Vethcairn - fewer in number - tend to sail inland from eastern Sil-Elaine and the Straits of Adena to perform their raids, using the obscurity of fog and arcane dangers as an advantage to avoid retribution. They dedicate these raids to Lotheric, Elven God of the Brine, who acts as their direct and living patron. Many of these Druskai have embraced the Necromantic roots of their ancestors and become partial or full undead, allowing them to resist the magical bile of the Straits of Adena and reside with Lotheric near the ruins of Ectahl.

 Most accepted his offer. Many, resentful of the Elves they had fought for their whole lives and still loyal to their vanished Queen, fled south to the Isle of Lukhan where - some say - Veravend led them, to fulfill a faraway purpose long into the future. This is where the divide between Korkann and Vethcairn first took place, though they weren't given such overarching names at the time.
-Eventually, as the Sundering came and changed Lotheric into a bitter and hateful God, and allowed the Outsider and his tendrils to seep deeper into the cracks of Atharen, these divides became only more clear and the history of the Druskai forever diverged into two.

-As one might expect, the Druskai possess the best naval technology in Atharen, outpacing the [[Arkanai]], Lorien and the Grisith Empire. They tend to build massive ships capable of hosting over a thousand crew, and a small city's worth of passengers. These ships, generally frigates, are armed with an assortment of cannons most often of some magical quality. One common example is a Artificer's or Necromancer's cannon that propels powerful undead at its target, reaving through enemy ships with biological weapons designed to shatter through hulls. Many other cannons carry with them the poisons or properties of Alchemy, or bulbous organic matter that spreads airborne disease as it erupts against the enemy ship; diseases Druskai tend to be immune to.

-Ruthless and resourceful as a people, their ships are designed much the same, and Druskai have a variety of different models dependent upon which enemy they seek to face. As Druskai tend to raid and pillage coastal settlements all across Atharen, they have fleets equipped to handle the challenges of each race and nation. If they are to raid the Grisith Empire they will bring heavy siege weapons capable of smashing through metal, if against Khadai they will send out hefty bulwarks capable of enduring many smaller and more agile vessels, and the list continues. One notable invention of Druskai shipbuilders is a heavy, ship-mounted artillery cannon of several heads, capable of puncturing even through Grisith airships as well as Lorien's supposedly unbreakable walls. The cannon can turn and fire with regular frequency, allowing Druskai ships to utterly demolish enemy navies.
