EraZorus.5892 Posted February 1, 2021 Share Posted February 1, 2021 The question is in the title : aside from Nethry in Malchor's Leap and Suriel, have you guys spotted any human NPC explicitly stated to be of Orrian ethnicity (or rather descent, given the very few number of Orrians who weren't in Orr when the Cataclysm happened). I personally always suspected Liadri and Exemplar Mehid to be ethnic Orrians, tough I might be wrong, given it's based on elements that are unreliable in the multi-ethnic context of Divinity's Reach.

The Greyhawk.9107 Posted February 2, 2021 Share Posted February 2, 2021 Can't say that I know of any others, only knew of Nethry and even she's probably not pure-blooded Orrian, her dialog suggests its only on her mother's side. Not sure about Suriel, her wiki page says nothing about being Orrian, where do you get that she is? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This character is an adult and Orr was shown in season 3 to still be unfit for human habitation, or any other race for that matter. How could someone be born and raised in a land completely dominated by an Elder Dragon and flooded with its minions? None of that makes sense.

EraZorus.5892 Posted June 29, 2021 Author Share Posted June 29, 2021 When I read "from Winterknell Shore", I understood that her FAMILY came from Winterknell Shore before the Cataclysm. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Some of them are a bit weird, like Liadri being from The Mire Sea. But it isn't entirely out of the question. Pirates are known to raid Orr even with the undead threat - we see a camp of such in Cursed Shore. If a pirate lady happened to be pregnant on such a voyage and got stranded but lucky enough to survive... Alternatively, it could be referring to where her family is from, meaning she's descended from the people who lived there. Most likely, it's meant as an in-universe claim of "where they say they're from", which can be easily fabricated or mean multiple things. I doubt Deadeye Dunwall was born in a makeshift bandit camp that probably didn't exist 20+ years prior, or that Liadri lives in a krait Deep. But if Dunwall is a bandit and lives at that camp, and Liadri was a prisoner for some time before being freed, and Suriel's family comes from Winterknell... then it makes sense. They're saying where they're from, but with different meanings of "where they're from". Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
