Fafner in the Azure terminology

From EverybodyWiki Bios & Wiki


This is a list of some of the key terms frequently used in the Japanese anime television series, Fafner in the Azure.

Fafner Types[edit]

Fafners are giant humanoid war machines developed by mankind to combat the Festum invasion. The Fafners developed on Tatsumiya Island are known as Nothung model units and, depending on the potential of the pilot, are capable of exhibiting immense power. The name FAFNER refers to the character Fáfnir from Norse mythology who turned into a dragon to protect a treasure trove.[1]
