History
The O'Faolain family hails from Bbandasdor in the northwest reaches of Dwilight, though its origin is shrouded in mystery. The current head of the family, Niall MacAodh O'Faolain, traces his lineage back four generations to Lasair O'Faolain, the first of the family to step foot on the shores of Dwilight. However, no further accounts of Lasair now exist; not long after the birth of Lasair's only child, monsters swarmed the family homestead; of Lasair and his household, only the young Olcán survived. Olcán was rescued from the ruins by a fisherman from a village not far up the coast, who raised him as a son; the only identifying mark he carried, he wore around his neck: a ring bearing the iconic O'Faolain wolf's-head crest and engraved with the family name. This has since been passed down as a family treasure to the eldest son at his birth and is now carried by Eoghan MacNiall O'Faolain.
Overview
The O'Faolain family reclaimed its birthright by the hand of Niall MacAodh in Bbandasdor; like other nobles of that region, the O'Faolain family raises and breeds high-quality horses on its estate; however, the family has not forgotten its roots, and many members of the family feel drawn to the sea; it is not uncommon for the men of the family to choose to fish, rather than stay on at the family estate.
