Ilriliad (Ill-rill-e-ad)

The Ilriliad, created as the brother race of the Obsidril, embraced a different path. Rather than succumbing to dark and sinister tendencies, they developed a profound love for the natural world and dedicated themselves to its protection. Although they occasionally clash with their counterparts, the Ilriliad aspire to a future where forgiveness and reconciliation can usher in a new era of peace and harmony, in accordance with the ancient desires of their God. Standing between 5 to 10 feet tall, the Ilriliad possess a muscular physique that reflects their physical strength and resilience. Their skin is intertwined with prismvelour, a special substance that provides a notable degree of toughness, although not as impenetrable as the Obsidril's. This unique attribute makes it difficult to pierce their skin, offering them a measure of protection in combat. Instead of focusing on destructive magic, the Ilriliad master the arts of nature manipulation and healing. Their affinity for nature magic enables them to shape and control the elements, while their mastery of healing arts allows them to restore and mend both living beings and the natural world. In their societal structure, the Ilriliad have established kingdoms akin to humans. However, instead of rulership based on bloodlines, they adopt a different approach. The Ilriliad form a council consisting of the most nature-attuned nobles within the kingdom. These council members collectively vote on who shall assume leadership. Candidates for leadership may include both council members and nobles who were not initially part of it. This democratic process ensures that the leader represents the united voice of the nature-attuned nobility, promoting a sense of unity and shared responsibility among the Ilriliad. Ilriliad society places great importance on the preservation and balance of the natural world. They strive to cultivate a deep understanding of the intricate ecosystems that surround them, as well as the delicate harmony between nature and magic. Skilled in herbalism, alchemy, and the healing arts, the Ilriliad possess advanced knowledge that allows them to nurture and revitalize the natural world. The Ilriliad's military strength should not be underestimated, as they combine their natural magic and physical prowess to defend their lands. They deploy formidable battlemages who wield the powers of nature to protect their realms and ensure the safety of their people. With their unwavering commitment to the natural world and their longing for reconciliation with the Obsidril, the Ilriliad embody the potential for unity and harmony. They seek to restore the balance that respects both light and darkness within their shared existence, striving for a future where the forces of nature and the sentient races coexist in a harmonious bond.
