In the World of Greyhawk campaign setting for the Dungeons & Dragons fantasy roleplaying game, the Baklunish (or Bakluni) are a race of humans inhabiting the Flanaess, as well as regions of Oerik further west.
Within the context of the game world, the bakluni are descendants of the human inhabitants of the ancient Baklunish Empire, and today are confined chiefly in the northwest Flanaess, in that region known as the Baklunish Basin and other nearby regions, including Zeif, Ekbir, Tusmit, Ull, Ket, the Dry Steppes, the Plains of the Paynims, the Tiger Nomads, and the Wolf Nomads. In some cases, the Baklunish mirror the real life Arabian people. Many similarities can be drawn between the two, including appearance and the influence of genies and other magical forces.
Description
Baklunish folk are described in the game world as having golden-hued skin and hair that ranges from blue-black to dark brown. Their eyes are often green or gray-green.
Religion
