Borean

Borean is a gender in the Sylvian System, one of the four Nature Systems. It is a gender which is both connected to forests, deep naturecore, and their overall aesthetics but which has a specific and strong connection to arctic. One may feel like their gender is specifically related to arctic forests or a specific part of them. For example, someone may feel that their gender is related to arctic forests if their gender is deeply naturecoric but also feels cold and laden with a deeply cold and isolated feeling. Borean people can have any alignment and/or no alignment, and depending on what alignment they have, they could use another term from the Sylvian System to describe themselves. For example, a borean person who is fiaspec could say they're mistic borean, from mistian.

History
