The term barbarians was shaped by the Ambrian people.
It is actually a abusive word for people who cannot speak
properly and who have no culture. It is therefore very
unlikely that the people north of the Titans would give
themselves this name.
Certainly the northern denizens originally only referred
to themselves as humans, as a separation from all the
other beings that live here, such as goblins, elves, ogres
and whatever else the forest harbors. What this humans
all unites is that they acknowledge Karvosti as a kind of
spiritual center that inherits an authority over the
individual clans. They have all committed sending their
best fighters to the Wraithguard and accepting
Karvosti's verdicts. So they all took an oath on Kavosti. It
would therefore make sense to call them Karvosi.
