The Elnac Downs are part of the low mountains on the northern edge of the Kingdom and Thaentis, just to the east of the Badabun Spires. The inhabitants of the Downs (called the Elnac or Downella) have not always had that good a relationship with the nobles of Thaentis, they are routinely deprived of social opportunities and during the War of the False Prophets they were used largely as cannon fodder, given promises for lands and social standing.

Culture

They value hard physical tasks, the bigger the better. While one can be known and even renown for mental acuity, this is prized most when it comes with physical ability as well.

The term Downwella is a derogatory term that will almost always inspire an Elnac to violence. Generally used to imply the Elnac are slow or dimwitted / otherwise less than.

Weather

The Downs themselves are rugged terrain that makes growing things difficult. The climate is cold and humid with thick, dense fogs rolling down from the high mountains to the north often.
