The Durakhani grudgingly accepted the existence of the Powers, but in their daily cult they worshiped for the most part themselves, as they considered themselves the descendants of the true gods and therefore superior to all other men.

The Durakhani spoke Ranaka or Xâtyn, a strange murmurous language distantly akin to Nelyarin Avarin.
