So I'm playing a game currently based on the Belgariad series in terms of geography but more DnD-esque, with different races standing in for the various nationalities from the books. If you've read them then hears a quick run down: Dragonborn live in Riva, Dwarves in Cherek, Halflings in Drasnia, Yuan-ti in Nyssia. Ulgo has gnomes and Deep gnomes and Mallorea has most of the weirder monster races. Murgos has the Orcs and Thulls are goblins and kobolds.
If you haven't read them don't worry. Theres 3 bad nations, called Cthol Murgos, Mishrak ak Thul and Gar og Nadrak. In the books they are populated by the Murgos the Thulls and the Nadraks. The Murgos are a violent warlike race of little imagination and great religious fanaticism, but smart enough to pose as Merchants when the time calls for it. Thulls are complete morons and cowards.
But the Nadraks are clever, mercenary and above all self interested. They are largely merchants, gold miners and hunters, with many thieves and drunks. They are allied with the bad guys, but only cos they kinda have to be. Gar og Nadrak is mostly forest and mountains, quite cold. http://davideddings.wikia.com/wiki/Gar_og_Nadrak

My question is this: Is there a usually evil race, or at least an inhuman and scary race that is known to be merchants and aren't complete monsters? Something not very strong, under 3 HD? Im racking my brain and cannot think of anything
