Fawynians are very future-minded. They are very excited to embrace changes to their society and integrate in any way possible. Though, Fawynians do also have a tendency to focus too much on the future, to the point of forgetting to appreciate their accomplishments in the present- and in the most extreme cases not realizing they can fix problems now and instead planning for future solutions.
Fawynne is mostly warm and humid, but cold along the coast nearest to Kepia. Fawynne contains Walsterne Lake and many forests and access to rivers.
Fawynne was founded after Casimir Lyndon created the batteries and offered another response to the growing threat of war. Queen Eileen of what was then Erios outlawed all those who supported Casimir’s work and removed their wings. Those who removed their wings were then called elves and found Fawynne, the territory of Erios left to them. Silith was also created inside of Fawynne to house any practicing witchcraft, a practice popularized after the witch Casimir’s success.
