Sylph
As with other genasi, the Sylph are humanoids wrought of the raw elemental power of the moon Aeronia. This can take the form of being born on or under the influence of the moon, living there long enough to become ingrained in the element, or undergoing a process to leash the element with the individual's body. Aeronia is the least hospitable of the moons, and furthest away from the world. Despite this, the creatures that live on the Elemental Plane of Air are the friendliest, sharing what little stability the moon affords with visitors. Slyphs are often willing participants in the process of becoming a genasi, wanting to take part in the cordial attitude of the djinni and tap into the power of air. It's unlikely to meet a truly self-centered sylph, as the cruel and ruthless are often not allowed a place to stay long enough for Aeronia to take root in the person.
The only creatures that cannot be imbued with elemental power are those already claimed by another element. An Oread cannot become an Sylph no matter how long they stay on Aeronia. A bronze dragon will not lose its water affinity if it undergoes the ritual. An Arrowhawk is already made of Aeronia, and thus cannot be classified as a Sylph. Note, creatures of the cold subtype are under the sway of Aeronia, such as Frost Salamanders, Ice Mephits and Silver Dragons.

Body Tint, Colouring and Marking
Sylphs are the least different from normal people from the World. Their skin is more subtle in its difference, taking teal or greyish tones. The hair is constantly blowing as if by an invisible wind, with subtle grey or white tones. The eyes are sometimes white washed.
