Wood Elves in Allansia | World Anvil

Wood Elves

Wood Elves tend to inhabit the forests of Allansia almost exclusively, only venturing into the outside world to trade with other races. They view individuals who enter their territory with mistrust following a fraught history of their forest homes having been cut down in the past in order to build cities and villages.   Similar in stature to High Elves, Wood Elves tend to have more tanned skin and their hair colours range from darker browns to golden blondes.

Darkvision: Accustomed to twilit forests and the night sky, you have superior vision in dark and dim conditions. You can see in dim light within 60 feet of you as if it were bright light, and in darkness as if it were dim light. You can't discern colour in darkness, only shades of grey.

Fey Ancestry: You have advantage on saving throws against being charmed, and magic can't put you to sleep.

Trance: Elves do not sleep. Instead they meditate deeply, remaining semi-conscious, for 4 hours a day. The Common word for this meditation is "trance". While meditating, you dream after a fashion; such dreams are actually mental exercises that have become reflexive after years of practice. After resting in this way, you gain the same benefit a human would from 8 hours of sleep.

Keen Senses: You have proficiency in the Perception skill.

Elf Weapon Training: You have proficiency with the longsword, shortsword, shortbow, and longbow.

Fleet of Foot: Your base walking speed increases to 35 feet.

Mask of the Wild: You can attempt to hide even when you are only lightly obscured by foliage, heavy rain, falling snow, mist, and other natural phenomena.

Languages. You can speak, read, and write Common and Elven.
