Sessairs were the first human people in Aarklash. They came from the sea and fought against centaurs andgiants who lived in the plains of Avagddu, and they always came out on top. Nowadays they are allied with

these proud people. They fight in the name of Danu and of the Light against the Darkness which have shroudedAarklash, and that have corrupted their Drune brothers.

Description

The Sessair are barbarians, as underlinedby their key ability: War fury! Thatextra combat die, combined with highinitiatives, makes them really powerfulin combat! Beware though, apart fromthe beasts they deploy, they tend to beamong the frailest fighters, given thatthey wear little to no armour.
