Elf, Eladrin Species in Myzelis | World Anvil

Elf, Eladrin

With their unearthly grace and fine features, elves appear hauntingly beautiful to humans and members of many other races. They are slightly shorter than humans on average, ranging from well under 5 feet tall to just over 6 feet. They are more slender than humans, weighing only 100 to 145 pounds. Males and females are about the same height, and males are only marginally heavier than females.   Elves’ coloration encompasses the normal human range and also includes skin in shades of copper, bronze, and almost bluish-white, hair of green or blue, and eyes like pools of liquid gold or silver. Elves have no facial and little body hair. They favor elegant clothing in bright colors, and they enjoy simple yet lovely jewelry.   Eladrin are elves native to the Feywild, a realm of beauty, unpredictable emotion, and boundless magic. An eladrin is associated with one of the four seasons and has coloration reminiscent of that season, which can also affect the eladrin’s mood:   Autumn is the season of peace and goodwill, when summer’s harvest is shared with all.   Winter is the season of contemplation and dolor, when the vibrant energy of the world slumbers.   Spring is the season of cheerfulness and celebration, marked by merriment as winter’s sorrow passes.   Summer is the season of boldness and aggression, a time of unfettered energy.   Some eladrin remain associated with a particular season for their entire lives, whereas other eladrin transform, adopting characteristics of a new season. When finishing a long rest, any eladrin can change their season. An eladrin might choose the season that is present in the world or perhaps the season that most closely matches the eladrin’s current emotional state. For example, an eladrin might shift to autumn if filled with contentment, another eladrin could change to winter if plunged into sorrow, still another might be bursting with joy and become an eladrin of spring, and fury might cause an eladrin to change to summer.

Gylidder Eladrin

  Season's Path: Though Eladrin can be found in many places in Gylidd - most especially Hynfaol and Zhen Ishraihadasha - there is only one group in Gylidd that can claim the highest concentration of these elves. Known as Libyr Timor ("Season's Path") this nomadic society of eladrin-led sylvan races journey between four specific locations within the island throughout the year; following the summer to the humid Gwassten, the fall to the arborious Verdant Mesa, the winter to the tundric Petrified Wood, and the spring to the floral Lumyn Hills. A rotating title among this society is that of the Aedling, a title of leadership that is passed between elders of the eladrin who are chosen by the Incari of the seasons they worship, who effectively speak for their seasons within the Gyliddring. The current Winter Eladrin Aedling is Simidhabinn ("Frostbones"), an ancient elf with the patience of gathering snow.  

Verberan Eladrin

  Folk of the Moth and Fly: The eladrin of Verbera reside within the Forest of Fangs' Feywild. The vast majority of these reside in the domain of Arannis, the Moonlit Moth and Sariel, the Golden Butterfly. The least alien of the fey, eladrin can easily be mistaken for other variants of elves, and many believe that the nevae are a breed of eladrin that have lost touch with their fey nature.
