Crystal Elf
Syl'cryn draw power from their matron goddess Lady Æduræ. Perhaps the most well known is their natural attunement to magic. During the Age of Remembrance, crystal elves were some of the only people (alongside druids, witches, and a few outliers) able to utilize magic. This earned them respect as legendary healers. Even now, in the current Age, Selvisprie is seen as a place of healing for many throughout Eclelon and beyond.
Another notable power that they hold is their unnaturally tough skin (in the literal sense). Though on contact their skin will feel as soft as any elf's, an average blade will fail to pierce it. With training, a syl'cryn can increase the magnitude of this ability for short durations by calling on their sleeping goddess.
While not differing in body shape from your average high elf, crystal elves have dramatic differences in skin and hair color. They almost exclusively have vivid hair colors covering the entire chromatic spectrum. Same goes for skin, although the colors will be more muted and skin-like.
The farther a crystal elf gets from Selvisprie, or rather Æduræ, the weaker their bond becomes. This can result in fatigue, loss of innate magic, and even death if gone far enough/for too long. This is a major factor in the crystal elves' isolation ever since the Shattering. The only known way to counteract this is with a special token, usually a personal effect bestowed with a blessing given by one of Æduræ's Prism. Thus, they are extremely rare and only given out in extreme cases. For instance, Nerigwyn Xyrsandoral carried a token for her expedition into the mires of Argenveil.
