Adelemere

The men of the west. Originating from the Armlands and eventually colonizing the western side of the continent, the Adelemere are the largest ethnic group in the realm. They were the first in the land to learn to develop farming and animal husbandry. They were also the first to build ships and establish trade routes.
The Adelemere are known for their ingenuity, curiosity, and creativity. Their appearance varies depending on location and heritage but they have some common features like wavy hair, fair or olive skin tone, and angular noses.
They make up the majority of the people from The Rind of Vlad all the way down to Devland, excluding the east coast.
