Eladrin
The Beginning
The Eladrin on the mainland came with the Fairy and the Gnome. They came in small groups on small boats, riding small winds and small waves. On an opposing coastline where the land juts out as a peninsula, the groups landed and disembarked. Those who landed called the land Fae’sinya . For most of the eladrin, they followed along with the gnomes and the fairy, forming groups of shared communities. However, some chose to form more isolated, roving bands amongst themselves, moving from one Fey community to another to celebrate the seasons of the world. These festive groups of Eladrin included amongst them all the seasonal representations of their folk.The Eladrin People
Eladrin are of the Feywild island, a much uncharted, magical, and mysterious island off the western coast of the . The eladrin are masters of the fey magic and embody the extreme emotions of the passionate fey within themselves. Their society shapes these manifested affinities as seasons, which affect an eladrin’s demeanor and appearance. An eladrin’s season may change as they experience new things, as they grow older, or as they choose. Some eladrin are unable to choose and their seasonal affinities change with the shift of the actual seasons.Basic Information
Biological Traits
Darkvision
You can see in dim light within 60 feet of you as if it were bright light and in darkness as if it were dim light. You discern colors in that darkness only as shades of gray.
Fey Ancestry
You have advantage on saving throws you make to avoid or end the charmed condition on yourself.
Fey Step
As a bonus action, you can magically teleport up to 30 feet to an unoccupied space you can see. You can use this trait a number of times equal to your proficiency bonus, and you regain all expended uses when you finish a long rest.
When you reach 3rd level, your Fey Step gains an additional effect based on your season; if the effect requires a saving throw, the DC equals 8 + your proficiency bonus + your Intelligence, Wisdom, or Charisma modifier (choose when you select this race):
Autumn. Immediately after you use your Fey Step, up to two creatures of your choice that you can see within 10 feet of you must succeed on a Wisdom saving throw or be charmed by you for 1 minute, or until you or your companions deal any damage to the creatures.
Winter. When you use your Fey Step, one creature of your choice that you can see within 5 feet of you before you teleport must succeed on a Wisdom saving throw or be frightened of you until the end of your next turn.
Spring. When you use your Fey Step, you can touch one willing creature within 5 feet of you. That creature then teleports instead of you, appearing in an unoccupied space of your choice that you can see within 30 feet of you.
Summer. Immediately after you use your Fey Step, each creature of your choice that you can see within 5 feet of you takes fire damage equal to your proficiency bonus.
Trance
You don’t need to sleep, and magic can’t put you to sleep. You can finish a long rest in 4 hours if you spend those hours in a trancelike meditation, during which you retain consciousness.
Whenever you finish this trance, you can change your season, and you can gain two proficiencies that you don’t have, each one with a weapon or a tool of your choice selected from the Player’s Handbook. You mystically acquire these proficiencies by drawing them from shared elven memory, and you retain them until you finish your next long rest.
Genetics and Reproduction
Eladrin adults have an extremely low fertility rate. Without attempts to prevent conception, eladrin are unlikely to reproduce from sexual relations. Additionally, even if they successfully do reproduce, the chance for multiple births are extremely low. An adult is able to conceive a child from 89 to 600 years.
