Damalgran is known for its large Genasi population--especially water and "ground" types. The muddy marshes are a natural home for them and social hierarchy formed over generations, so fire and air type genasi have often been considered part of a lower social class. In recent generations, this caste system has started to wear down, but fire and air genasi are still more commonly found outside of Damalgran than inside of it. Water and ground genasi consider the mud pit outside of Baston to be a holy site.
