The Derin were formed at the begining of time as a sub-set of the shade. Technically part of the shade but they really were considered a class of thier own. They were Nocens Atrums ultimate fighting force. Nocens gave them god like powers and they laid waste to anything and everything that Lumen tried to create. And for the hundreds of years the war between the 2 waged they stood behind their master. Then the shade decided to lock Nocens away. Furious the Derin declared war on the shade. But even as powerful as they were, they were no match for the shades collected force with the aid of Lumen to assure that Nocens stayed trapped. And with the defeat they ran and hid. The became nomadic and then eventually seamlessly dissapeared off the map.
Over the years the developed rituals and cultures. They began to pray to Shema who they beilive is the mother of Lumen and Nocens.
No one dared speak against her for they would be tried to the harshest degree and by exiled.
They also began training for battle at an early age. Girls learned Alchemy and Archery and the boys learned magic and swordplay.
They were very gifted in battle and secretly helped win wars if the price was right.
They still carry on the power given to them by the evil lord Nocens. They live for multiple lifetimes and can unleash powerful magic with out breaking a sweat. Their unique and deadly power comes from their ears. It is said they were handshaped by Nocens himself to hear all the evil in the world. Over years people have learned about the Achilles' heel of the race. Cut off the ear, Cut off the power. But lets just say they didnt live long enough to tell anyone.
Their locations is unkown. It is very rare ever to see one and live through it. And if you do it most likely an exile banished from their people for their wrongs.
I'll try and find a picture to show you what the basic visual of the race is
If i don't ill try and commission some one
so if you know some one that does good commissions
let me know
