Eladrin are a race of mystical humanoids that are native to the “Fae-realms” the lands that lay on the other side of "the Green Veil".

Despite a strong physical similarity, Eladrin don’t like to be referred to as “Elves”. In fact Eladrin are as much like Elves as Gnomes are; they are pointed-eared denizens from the same otherworldly plane and that is all. Many Eladrin view the comparison to Elves much as modern humans would view being referred to as “ape” – many will tolerate it the name if uttered through ignorance but will point out that it is not accurate.


Those Eladrin that live on Terearth prefer to make their home in naturally mystical regions of Erganth, where the barriers between Terearth and the fae-realms are the weakest. However, Eladrin can be found throughout the Imperial lands, often in the employ of the Cerulean Order.


Given their magical nature, most Eladrin choose to follow the path of Wizard although a sizeable number also take up the role of Cleric, following the worship of Correllon.


All Eladrin can speak the Imperial language of “High Merebian” although they joke that it is little more than a series of grunts and whistles. The Eladrin language is known as “Sidhe” (pronounced “Shee”).


In a similar fashion to that of Gnomes, Eladrin can interact with the “Green Veil” in order to give them a limited “teleport” ability. However, the farther an Eladrin is away from Erganth the more difficult using this ability seems to be.
