These monks a breakaway sect of the church of the Twinned Goddess, who have rejected material wealth and preach a life of austerity.

History
- Primary food sources for the common include a subterranean lake stocked with fish, and a network of vertical well-gardens carved upwards to reach the surface of the ridge. Other items are exchanged for in trade.
- Black Ridge does produce jewelry from gem stones and precious metals, namely amethyst, aventurine, citrine, silver, and gold. Having little need for visually appealing adornments, the Qulani made items are more textural in nature.
