The Tanâi or T’loc-loc were an small tribe of diminuitive,almost child-like , appearance, supposedly partly of Ilorian blood, native to the Isles of Tanâ.They were known as inhospitable, even hostile, particularly to their supposed remote Namâri kinsmen.
Notes[]
In Rolemasters Kulthea setting the Tanai are inconsistently described either as Half-Elves or Erlin.If adapted to a Middle-Earth setting they should be re-imagined as Avari or Haradrim, possibly even a Drughu-folk whose ancestors had been culturally influenced by Wild Elves.A still different option could be to consider them a people akin to the Halflings of the Westlands.
