Eldar

The Eldar were formed by the original Spark. Some say they are the most civilized of all the peoples of the world, others the most feral, like a captive but still wild animal. A dying race with perhaps only a thousand or less survivors left, they are often seen as dark, tragic in nature and a haunting race of people. A race that has survived a war of genocide and knows that their days are numbered regardless. For one day, there will be no more Eldar in the world.

All Eldar are extremely long lived, they have been known to live for thousands of years. The Eldar, are now commonly broken into the Eldarine and Eldaran, but not to the survivors of this race. They only refer to others as the Eldar, never by the distinction of Eldarine and Eldaran.

Note: All Players wishing to start an Eldar must have achieved enough experience to be at minimum Level 15 before creating one of these beings. See a Marshall or Staff on the ways this can be achieved. You must have a Marshall’s approval to play any Eldar.

The Eldarine (Seelie Court Fey)

History has always suggested that the Eldarine are close relatives to the Elves, they are one of the Ancient Races, called the “Eldar” before the sundering some six centuries ago.

Many academics suspect that the Eldar are closer to the original Spark that all life shares.

The Eldarine were once creatures of light. Lovers of art, quick with a quip, and light of heart, these champion-poets are now often as skilled with an ink quill as with a rapier. No longer, now they bear a great burden of heart. Though they are still fond of adventure, it now has a reason. You will always find an Eldarine in search for a cure for their blighted brothers and sisters, though they secretly fear there is none to be found.

Makeup Requirements

An Eldarine doesn’t have any specific costuming requirements, but they do tend toward Spring and Summer colors, and loose flowing clothing. Eldarine are required to wear pointed ears. These must be longer than those of an Elf being at least 3 inches long. They may be curved or leaf like as well. An Eldarine also must have something off about their look. Sometimes they have strange colored eyes, or tattoos around their eyes. They often also have horns, or even thorns. These may be of latex, sculpting clay, or foam.

Population

3 Eldarine are allowed for each 100 players in the game.
