Thavmain Race: Anemoian

The Anemoian are really a collection of three races of Thavmain. The three sub-races of Anemonians are the Boreaians, the Favonians, and the Notosians. As children, all Anemoians change into a grey appearance with what seems to be slight control of the wind with pain. As Anemoians mature and go through the continentias, they become more like their sub-race. As adults, Anemoians still can display this grey appearance. It is unknown how the Anemoians associated with the wind and other Thavmains, like the Menoetians, did not.

Boreaian

The Boreaians change to an cold, blue ice-like appearance in their skin due to fear. With uncontrolled fear, they can freeze those around them. Boreaians typically live in the northern regions of Thavma, where it is typically seasonally cold.

Favonian

The Favonians can change into a somewhat invisible appearance. They are the only Thavmains to which no changes occur to the Thavmain weapon orb. Unlike other Thavmains, who use their own emotions to change their appearance, Favonians tap into the sadness and grief of others. 

Favonians use of stealth makes them excellent thieves and spies. For this reason, any lost belonging is said to have been stolen by a Favonian. The common saying goes, "taken and stolen, by a Favonian!" There is also a small fraction for support of Mevoi among the Favonians.

Notosian

The Notosians change to a yellow appearance with an electric ability with heavy concern. Typically, Notosians are found the the southern regions of Thavma. These southern regions are still fairly warm, unlike their northern counterparts, which is believed to be due to more of an electric atmosphere created by the large concentration on Notosian in the region.
  
Anemoian Determination

Typically, an Anemoian will display as one sub-race in adulthood. The determination of which sub-race an Anemoian child will become is largely genetic. Data shows that Favonian appears to be recessive to both Boreanian and Notosian. There have been a few reports where parents of the same sub-race will have a offspring of a different sub-race (i.e. Boreaian parents having a Favonian offspring), but this is rare. Even more rare, is when Anemoian can display multiple appearances. No record ever, however, has shown an Anemoian displaying all three sub-races as an adult.
