Tyr

"A rainbow in the rough." - The traitor F'Van speaks of Tyr's beauty.



At a Glance
Located in The Lowlands, Tyr was the capitol of the Shadar-Kai civilization. Unlike their fellow Fey-kin, the Shadar-Kai of Tyr remained united following the Separation of the Elves, leading to Tyr being one of the most heavily populated cities in the mortal plane. With hundreds of thousands of inhabitants, Tyr was a dense villa of culture that circled an oasis in the midst of the Harsh Sands. Visible from miles away, its large spires and rainbow pyramid (which encased the oasis) were symbols of a sedentiary lifestyle in an otherwise hostile world.

Religion
With a population primarily made up of Shadar-Kai, the people of Tyr openly worshipped Sehahnine and Hextor , the twin Gods of Affection and Death. An insular community, the Shadar-Kai of Tyr believied all other deities to be myths or false creatures with the exception of The Raven Queen whom the Shadar-Kai believed to be Sehahnine in disguise.

Political Structure
Naturally skilled in shadow magics, Shadar-Kai were open allies of wandering Revenants, a relationship that would draw suspicion from other races. A bitter and determined race, the Shadar-Kai were not without honour. As a sign of respect, many Shadar-Kai would adopt names of fabled warriors claim those of defeated foes whom were regarded highly. The highest titled-position in Tyr was that of the "Damno Korval ", a name passed down to each mayor. The name itself came from the eldest Shadar-Kai warlord, a proud and fierce combatant in Shadar-Kai history.
