Yatanese

The Yatanese are the inhabitants of Yatan. They arrived in Yatan 13,000 years ago. Since then, the Yatanese have been separated into nations for each of the elements. Each nation's citizens have their own unique appearances, but in general, do not have many distinguishing features.

Out of continuity, the Yatanese most closely resemble a half-Korean half-English person. Their roots stem from white settlers from over 13,000 years ago and Elvish ancestors, but they have only kept their human traits. The air in Yatan is plagued with mana and it is said to have changed the features of the Yatanese. This has caused them to develop many Asian features, but not to the extent that they have left behind their white appearance.

The Elvish ancestors in Yatan were not affected the Mana in the air, but as they had bred with mankind their children became influenced by the air and caused the physical changed of the typical Yatanese appearance.

The Yatanese language is similar to Andish, however, in the past 13,000 years the dialect had changed and many words were swapped out for more appropriate words. Sentence structure was identical, but some words and pronunciations were unrecognizable.

In Marn, you will know when you see someone from Yatan (not that you'll see them outside the Islands) because it is the only place in the world to have developed Eastern Asian-like appearances. The rest of the world is either white or black, with the exception of some that can be compared to a Western Asian ethnicity. Each nation has a similarity, appearance wise and accent wise, and it is as follows:
 * Advinia: American/Anglo
 * Carridan: American/Anglo
 * Bretonnia: English/Anglo
 * Frescoza: French/Latin
 * Kordean: Spanish/Latin
 * Saxony: Irish/Celtic
 * Vedoxia: Middle-eastern
 * Westia: Russian/Slavic
 * Yttria: Germany/Germanic
