Desert Elves

The Curse changed the elves in body and mind in a variety of ways.
The desert elves adapted to the changes as their farmlands turned into desert. In addition to gaining the trance ability like all post-Curse elves, they traded in some of their affinity for the arcane for a hardy resilience and ability to survive their harsh new environment.
