Origin
The Daoine-Uisge were originally all citizens of an ancient underwater city called Baile-Fon-Uisge. They were very advanced for the time, and their language, Guth a ’Chuain, was the predeccessor of many modern day languages. During the reign of the 63rd monarch, King Bhrath. a rebel group known as the Daoine Deigh took seize of the city. Afterwards, crime rate rose rapidly, and eventually a revolution began between the civilians and the rebel overlords. During the war, a bio weapon was used, which killed 95% of the Daoine-Uisge species. Due to this, the war became one which nobody won. The city was abandoned, the language forgotten, and the mere existence of the Daoine-Uisge became a myth to those from outside Baile-Fon-Uisge.
