The "Nurse Joy" Effect
Ilhacia is full of strange beasts and creatures founding the wildlands, but some oddities can be found within the people of Ilhacia. One such oddity is what is known as the "Nurse Joy" effect. There are certain folks wandering Ilhacia that have doppelgangers all over the world. While no one alive really knows how this occurred, these folks tend to certain jobs and characteristics that tie them together beyond being identical. While all of them can trace their lineages back to the main family line, when they mate with any other race or gender, the offspring will always come out identical. Some theorize that the family was cursed by an ArchFae or maybe dabbled in dark magic only the original family holds the origin of this doppelganger phenomenon. All of them are considered by the majority of the populous to be a strange combination of a Fae race and humanoid race that was cursed due to the blasphemy of the mating of these races, though the work these families tend to do have endeared them to the popular minimizing the racist stigma that plagued them in the earlier years of the current era. These families are also thought to be the oldest in Ilhacia, claiming to even be around from the time before the Three Kings.The Katier family
specializes in brewing the strange plants that grow in Ilhacia. While any person with brewing knowledge can make a craft beer or distill liquor, it takes fine-tuned skills of brewing and plant identification to brew and/ or distill the specialty liquors and ales from the Ilhacian plants, a skill passed down a refined in this family. Though the Katier family is the most well-known tavern keep in Ilhacia, they are not nearly the only ones. Many other privately owned taverns occur across Ilhacia with a myriad of colorful barkeeps. However, you can usually find the Katier signature ales a liquor wherever you go.The Katier family line is matriarchal, causing the doppelganger effect only in females. These women stand about 5'6" tall and have a lean but sporty build. Their dirty blonde hair may be done up in varying ways and cut at different lengths, but the almond-shaped hazel eyes, high cheekbones, and oval face are characteristic of the family. You can find this familiar face in nearly every city tavern.
