The emerald green western island of Hibernia is inhabited by the nature-worshipping human Celts. At one time in the island’s history, the Celts warred with the primal magic using "Otherworld" elvish creatures that were said to live "under the hill" in fantastical cities. In light of the mutual threat of armed invasion by Norse or Britons, the Otherworld creatures have joined forces with the Celts to form a powerful combination of magic, nature worship, and arms.
The Hibernians are made of the human Celts, who demonstrate a profound affinity with nature. The Elves are beautiful tall, thin, humanoids who specialize in all forms of magical spell casting, and have the ability to bear arms. The almost-giant Firbolg combine nature worship with practical magic and arms skills. The small, quick Lurikeen show an aptitude for both spellcasting as well as dexterous fighting.
Hibernian magic comes from two sources. Their most powerful spells come from the Otherworld Elvish mastery of primal Arcane magic. Other casters also have a variety of nature-based druidic spells. In general, the Hibernians are the most magically-inclined of all the Realms – almost all of their classes support some sort of spell-casting.
