Player Characters Part 3- Elves and Eladrin

In this post we examine the two fey races available for play.

Elves - Few elves make their home in Varisia, with the exception of the residents of the Mierani Forest. Elves are creatures of the natural world. Elves are more feral than stoic and more artists than craftsmen. Elves are slender and athletic. They tend to have tanned skin and hair of deep brown, orange, green, or gold. Elves have long pointed ears. Their eyes are vibrant blue, violet, or green. Males and females alike have very little body hair. Elves are long lived, being almost 400 years old before succumbing to old age.

Elves are your race of choice if you want a stealthy, wild character. They excel at being Rangers, Rogues, and Clerics.

Eladrin - Eladrin are the branch of the elven family that remained in the Feywild. Aloof and mysterious, Eladrin are rarely seen in Varisia. Once, long ago, their kingdom encompassed the Ashwood. This forest kingdom has long since been abandoned, and is now refuted to be a haunted place. Eladrin look similar to elves. Where as the elves appear earthy, Eladrin are ethereal in appearance. They have fair complections. Their hair is fine, and often white, silver, or pale gold. Their eyes are opalescent orbs of blue, violet, or green. Eladrin are even longer lived then elves. It is said that eladrin are nearly immortal, and only age when they spend time in the natural world.

You should choice an Eladrin if you are interested in a graceful, intelligent character. Eladrin favor the path of the Wizard, Warlock, and Rogue classes.
