Dawi

Eccentrics of the Forgotten Islands

Some time in the past, the entire southwest region between Torgalia and Canzia erupted into the sky. It is thought that most of the inhabitants of that area were completely decimated. A small number of strong-headed and inquisitive Tok people were awed by the mystery of the land and ventured to scale the shattered landmasses to reach the highest floating islands. Quickly the islands gained notoriety and drew those who were likewise amazed by the remains of the past. Showing great respect and reverence for the ruins, the islanders began to dig into the shattered edges of the islands, building structures and services deep underneath the ruin.
　‎　‎Over time the residents of the islands began to understand the way the ancient people used to live and what brought them to great power. Now, these Tok people called themselves the Dawi, a moniker derived from ancient ruins, they committed fully to adopting the lifestyles and ways of their chosen “ancestors”. It is not only the ways of the past people that have transformed the Dawi, but the strange floating islands themselves, that the Dawi have resided on for generations.

Tok Supergroup

While in modern times, the four distinct peoples of the Tok species are not quite as physically similar as they once were, scholars and historians have agreed that the Torgali, Canzians, Lovalians, and Dawi have all descended from a single ancestor, known as the Primal Tok.
