+====== Irish ======
+The island of Ireland has a mystic connection with the Fey, producing a people who are familiar with common divine magic. Meanwhile, the island remains a bastion of knowledge for the Catholic church as the island's monasteries preserve the old teachings through the dark ages.
+Adventuring Irish in the new world all start with +2 WIS.
 Primary Language: Irish.  Secondary Language: English.
+It's only been a century since the final victory of the Irish over the [[danish|Danes]], ending the era of Viking terror and domination.  Still, there are communities of Danes and [[norwegian|Norwegians]] in Ireland.  But now the Irish are facing a slower invasion by [[normans|Norman]] adventurers from England.  Therefore, there is a degree of hostility between the Irish and Norwegians, Danes, Normans, and to a smaller degree the English.  Relations are good with the [[scottish|Scots]] and [[Welsh]] on the whole.
+The Irish revere the memory of High King Brian Boru who helped defeat the Danes, as well as Saint Patrick and Saint Brigid, each forces for the Christianization of the island.
