Coeur

Inhabitants of Coeur have a tribal existence. First their loyalty is to their family and tribe, then to their island, before their nation as a whole. 
The storytellers of this nation speak of a short, stocky people that came to their shores in the youth of Coeur - dwarvenfolk. They bred and mingled so much with the humans of Coeur that the two races are indistinguishable now as a joint breed. This has resulted in most Coeurans being of broad, muscular builds. 
Until circa 200 AE, there were no written records of this civilization. Their history is preserved by orators.

=== Naming ===
Most people of Coeur have last names despite not being of nobility. Some Coeurans choose their own, but usually choose to take that of one of their parents once they reach the age of 12. Women do not take the last name of their husband. 
Klossner was orphaned after her parents were executed for their crimes. Although she knew their last names, she chose not to go by either and left herself blank and only going by her first name. Ironically later in life she would be knighted on mainland Aradia, her name branding all of her descendants.
