Duscadorians

Duscadorians (singular Duscadorian), also known as the People of Duscador, are an ethnic group native to the southernmost reaches of Truyea. They speak the Duscadorian language, in a number of dialects, although notable populations still speak Southern Tamar and a small number of northern Duscadorians speak Old Tamerian. The majority of Duscadorians live in Duscador, with large ethnic diasporas in both the northeast (Sevicia) and the west (Erenna), as well as overseas.
The significant majority of Duscadorians trace their origins to early Inimik-speaking peoples native to the mid and south of the continent some four to five thousand years ago, though few records still survive beyond vague linguistic evidence of a connection. It is believed that "Duscador" comes from the old pre-Tamerian language of Imarit - duska meaning "of the sun." It is unknown where the latter half of the word comes from, though it may be a linguistic evolution of the Old Tamerian term doura, meaning "explorer" or "traveller." The first ethnic Duscadorian people migrated south from The Neck some 3500 years ago.
