The Svalic people are said to have the "Blood of Winter"; a great hardiness to cold. They are often blond, pale-skinned and have green or blue eyes. The Laro are a subset of this group. The Svalics are mostly found across the northen region of "the Brazaks"; Brazak West and Brazak East, as well as Kazak and parts of the USK. They are however, much like Valyans, a well-dispersed group.

Svalic (and Laro) surnames are unusual in that they are inherited from the mother's line as opposed to the father. However, the situation is not completely reverse of the Hal norm, as males retain their surname after marriage. In the occasional instance where couples remain unmarried, either surname can be found passed onto offspring.

This, along with many other traits and geographical proximity, supports the anthropological theory that the Svalics are closely related to the Valyans.
