Cear Duara

Cear Duara is a mystical expanse on the west coast of the Western Kingdoms, populated by a people culturally and racially separate from the Commonwealth. The Duara are pale-skinned, with red to black hair, and an affinity for natural magick. They are renowned to be aggressive and brutal in war, wearing little as to armour, and keeping to the forests and highlands that they call home. In the times of the Old Kingdom, the Duara often raided Commoner villages, through surprise attacks from the forests or from longships by the North Sea. Duara society, though ruled by a High King elected by the Sovereign Clans, is heavily influenced by the High Circle, a secretive council of Druids that serve as religious and political leaders.
