|Introduction='''Duranthi''' are a human race native to the mountainous region of [[Terasil]]. Deeply influenced by the [[Ascendant Spirit]] of History and Memory, [[Varunel]], Duranthi culture centers on history and preservation. While often regarded as archaic by other peoples, the Duranthi maintain an enduring and significant role in the broader landscape of [[Dalel]].

|Origin and Nature=Like all human races of ~~Orethil~~, the Duranthi trace their ancestry to the original humans of [[Awenlir]], an island associated with imagination and limitless potential. These early humans were created by [[Awenlas]], the Spirit of Imagination and one of the original spirits of the world. The reasons for their dispersal from Awenlir are unknown, but those who would become the Duranthi settled in the mountain valleys of Terasil near the [[Citadel Mountains]], within the [[domain of Yairan]], the [[Primordial Spirit]] of Earth.

Terasil is also home to Varunel and the spirit of stone strata, [[Tehrum]], both of whom exert a strong influence on the region. The Duranthi, shaped by this proximity to primordial and ascendant powers, developed unique physiological and spiritual characteristics, reflecting the endurance and stability of their homeland.

Their skin reflects the elemental influence of Yairan. Those living close to the domain of Yairan, such as in [[Sanctuary Vale]], often have stone-like, hardened skin, while those dwelling farther away, in regions such as the Yalta Wastes, have softer, more human-like features.

|Abilities and Osia=Like other peoples of ~~Orethil~~, the Duranthi practice Osia, the spiritual art of [[attunement]] to spirits. Among them, two primary paths are recognized: the path of Memory, associated with Varunel, and the path of Stone, associated with Tehrum. Practitioners of the path of Memory cultivate spiritual discipline through remembrance and mental clarity; advanced adherents can influence or alter the perception of memory itself.

Those who follow the path of Stone manipulate soil and rock, shaping the physical world around them. A few attempt to attune directly to the primordial spirit Yairan, a difficult practice that, in theory, would allow manipulation of the raw structure of matter—mountains, stone, and even the physical framework of living beings.
