Eladrin

Magic is not a dessert to be passed around at the dinner table. It is to be respected and channeled by those who are deserving of its power. - Evande Del'Nora Moonleaf, Elf Paladin

Eladrin live in grace with the touch of magic found throughout their lives. Their practices of all sorts are influenced by this, from dance to wizardry and swordplay. Their cities are stunning locations of beauty, formed and shaped by the bending of magic with graceful elegance and design. As a result, many of their kind still hold disdain towards the other races and their misuse of magic that lead to the Sundering.

The most numerous eladrin are those also known as moon elves or silver elves. Fair, being pale to the point of appearing blue in certain light, they are an attractive people with long, silky hair the color of spun silver or deepest black. One can become lost in their entrancing eyes that appear as flecks of gold swimming in deep pools of blue or green.

The second group of eladrin are markedly less common. They are known as sun elves or gold elves, and they are a reclusive people, content to while away their long lives in the seclusion of their breathtaking cities. These eladrin have bronze or golden skin and golden blond, copper, or black hair. Most have green or golden eyes.

Eladrin Names
In contrast to their elven cousins, eladrin naming conventions tend to favour the concepts of the elegance and beauty infused with arcana. However some others eschew this altogether and have fairly standard elven names that evoke no particular imagery.
