    Oh snap yeah that looks about right. The vast majority I met were indeed from the north then.

    Yes. I am a Geat. My people still call ourselves Geats. Though of course we don't say Geats since that is in English, but you get the idea. Not sure why they write Geats, it sounds silly, but perhaps to avoid confusion with Goths since the correct pronouncation would be more like Goet. Goths share ancestry though so it seems unnecessary.

    Also as far as being a barbarian, you can be barbarian. Barbarian is just the Greek term for "foreigner" and besides, the Romans were quite barbaric themselves.
