Mendian is a gender in the Nadurian System, one of the four Nature Systems. It is a gender which is both connected to nature and its overall aesthetics but which has a specific and strong connection to mountains. One may feel like their gender is specifically related to mountains, or they may feel that a certain aspect of their gender can relate to certain aspects of mountains. For example, someone may feel that their gender is related to mountains if their gender feels isolated yet grand and elevated and deeply naturecoric, or they may just generally relate to mountains. Mendian people can have any alignment and/or no alignment, and depending on what alignment they have, they could use another term from the Nadurian System to describe themselves. For example, a mendian person who is fiaspec could say they're rhosynic mendian, from rhosynian.
