History
Fao was first named a county during the Scapolite occupation of Onyx and given as a reward to the general of the same name. General Fao built a manor on the land to use as a vacation home but never developed the region due to the mix of inhospitable land, monsters, and fae which lived in the area. In the time since Fao has become home to bandits, hunters, trappers, and fishermen who prefer the wilds to the city.
Fao manor has passed through dozens of hands over time, usually as part of some larger deal. Throughout it all a small staff has continued to serve at the manor in positions which have become almost hereditary. A decade ago the crown of Amethyst seized the deed to the manor as part of an initiative to elevate more locals to the peerage and create a more integrated empire. Fao was redistricted as a barony, though it has remained without a lord until recently.
