Chauntari Elf

The only elves native to Amar, the Chauntari were banished from the surface world for following the Betrayer down the path of evil. Now those that did not succumb to the Shade have built their own civilization in the Depths. Also called deep elves, the Chauntari have pale or dark skin that resembles charcoal or obsidian, as well as hair that ranges from stark white to jet black. They commonly have very pale eyes (so pale as to be mistaken for white) in shades of lilac, silver, pink, red, and blue. They tend to be smaller and thinner than most elves.
Chauntari adventurers are rare. Check with your Dungeon Master to see if you can play one.

---

Ability Score Increase: Your Dexterity score increases by 2 and your Charisma score increases by 1.
Keen Senses: You have proficiency in the Perception skill.
Fey Ancestry: You have advantage on saving throws against being charmed, and magic can’t put you to sleep.
Trance: Elves don’t need to sleep a full 8 hours. Instead, they meditate deeply in a dreamlike state, remaining unconscious, for 4 hours a day. (The Common word for such meditation is “trance.”) After resting in this way, you gain the same benefit that a human does from 8 hours of sleep.
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 color in darkness, only shades of gray.
Sunlight Sensitivity: You have disadvantage on attack rolls and on Wisdom (Perception) checks that rely on sight when you, the target of your attack, or whatever you are trying to perceive is in direct sunlight.
Chauntari Magic: You know the dancing lights cantrip. When you reach 3rd level, you can cast the faerie fire spell once with this trait and regain the ability to do so when you finish a long rest. When you reach 5th level, you can cast the darkness spell once with this trait and regain the ability to do so when you finish a long rest. Charisma is your spellcasting ability for these spells.
Chauntari Weapon Training: You have proficiency with rapiers, shortswords, and hand crossbows.
