Elfkind



Elfkind was the first and most powerful sentient race to thrive in Yatan as a society. They were pacifistic and worshipped the Ancient Aera in the same way Humanity does.

Profile
The existence of Elves has been entirely unknown to Humanity for millenia. Long ago, the Elves lived as the only race in Yatan. They were a primordial race that thrived in society without war. Magic was utilized in every way possible, bringing prosperity to every corner of their great cities.

Their mastery over Mana rivals the young members of the Aera race, but their adversity to using it for violence makes their talents alternatively useful. Despite their immense power, this fact is what led their society to ruin at the hands of Humans.

Elves are often depicted as tall and slender and with hair that had never been cut. Long hair was a sign of innocence because wrongdoers had their heads shaved as their only punishment. They wore silks and are never seen with armor or weapons, because their races lack of desire for war left them to never be developed.

History
The Elves existed before written history. In the prime of Elven society, Humans lived in tribes as barbarians and the Aera flew freely in the skies. Eventually, the Elven society fell to Human Warmongers and their magic was lost to the sands of time.

Today, the only living Elves are the Hysterians. Hysterian's were the Elven criminals that once rose up in violence to face the Aera. They were imprisoned in the Shadow World alongside Izanagi and have been driven mad by the whispers over countless millenia. They have all forgotten their past lives and now serve Solmenos as eager pawns willing to lose their life for his cause.
