Selena Anando pt 2 (the generalization)

Not all people in Selena Anando are like the people you've gotten to know so far. They are the ones that are stuck in some sort of mental or emotional rut. and everyday before and after mass they are always found in the town square near the Fuente de Delmarre fountain.
There are jobs in Selena Anando (of course), even if it be just a street vendor; most people here work all day. The population is predominantly male, but is a matriarchal society. Weird, I know and there were girls that loved to take advantage of that.
As a generality, the males are either blond or brunette, with brown, green or blue eyes. All the men are tall, at least 6 feet and wear their hair somewhat long untill they get old or no longer wish to comply with tradition. The women, on the other hand, are short between 5-6ft mostly brunettes and reddish-browns. They too, traditionally wear their hair long.

The mayor of the town is Solan Osandin a good man who has ruled with a just hand, for about 8 years now. Everyone is and feels safe in Selena Anando. Few times, if ever, do festivities get out of hand that the police mustbe called in.

Selena Anando is not truly equipped for tourists but doesnt mind the visits. Hotels are down the highway a few miles out of town, as is most everything ascossiated with tourists.

All in all about 2,000 people live in this little hole by the mountains and I don't think theyll trade anything for it.
