Honor, Wisdom, and Courage.
These are the values that guide the lives of the citizens of Lenfald. More than mere words, these ideals embody the core beliefs of a free and noble people in a nation of adventure and opportunity. Men of action, women of unmatched beauty and intelligence, scholars of great wisdom, extraordinary citizens living each day to their fullest with a zest for life. And among all this, Lenfels dwell in fine balance between personal freedom and good governance, without tolerance for either the chaos of the outlaw nor the clenched fist of the tyrant.
The great people of Lenfald were shaped by an even greater land. Lying between the cold desolation of Garheim to the north, and the barren, wind-scarred deserts of Loreos to the south, is the glorious land of Lenfald itself. Magnificent forests extending beyond the horizon and into the unknown, rivers that gleam brighter than forged silver, waterfalls that sparkle as if cut from the finest diamonds, ancient ruins filled with the unsolved mysteries of a long and storied past, formidable castles built of the strongest wood and stone, wind-touched plains that play home to the dancing sun in the day and the shining stars at night: Lenfald is all of these things, and much more.
Adventure. Purpose. Fellowship.
You will find all of these qualities in beautiful Lenfald, land of brilliant forests and silver waters. Lenfald of Adventure, of Fortune, Freedom, History and Destiny. Join us in a land full of opportunity.
For Comparison: Lenfald is reminiscent of medieval Great Britain and Germany, with similar geography and architecture, although the people have more freedom than either of these two historical examples. The land features many fine forests, and stone is plentiful as well, and so their castles are often stone and wood combinations. Lenfald has the strongest fleet of ships amongst all of Roawia due to the availability of oak in our forests. In times of peace, Lenfald trades wood, fur, agriculture and textiles freely with Garheim and Loreos. If you enjoy the green beauty, landscapes and buildings of Great Britain or Germany then Lenfald is your best choice for a faction.

Leadership: Field Marshal Albrecht von Falkenborg, The High Lord of Lenfald
Once a part of the united Kingdom of Roawia, the senior 100 leaders of Lenfald declared its independence at the Great Congress and decided to reject entirely the idea of having a monarch over the people. Instead, the tradition of electing a High Lord was continued, but now with a 5-year term limit. Our current High Lord is Albrecht von Falkenborg I, successor to High Lord Triphian. Field Marshal Falkenborg made his reputation by driving enemy forces out of Stonewald and Northern Lenfald, and his dynamic personality and boundless energy impressed so many that he was swept into office in a wave of patriotism. As a new High Lord, Falkenborg now has his work cut out for him in leading a newborn Nation to freedom from Roawia and stability in a new political landscape.
