Elves
Basic Information
Anatomy
Elves are typically taller and more slender than humans, often ranging from 5 to 7 feet in height. Their bodies are lithe and graceful, with long limbs and a delicate frame.
One of the most distinctive features, elves have long, pointed ears that can be several inches in length, tapering to a fine point. This trait enhances their sense of hearing and is often associated with their connection to nature.
Abilities
Advantage Against Being Charmed
Elves possess an innate resilience against enchantments that seek to charm or manipulate their minds.
Magic Can’t Put Them to Sleep
Elves are immune to magical sleep effects. Their connection to the mystical energies of their world creates a protective barrier that prevents them from falling asleep through magical means, allowing them to remain vigilant while others may succumb to such spells.
Meditation in Place of Sleep
Instead of requiring traditional sleep, elves enter a state of deep meditation for four hours, remaining semi-conscious while still attuned to their surroundings. During this time, they may appear tranquil, yet their senses remain keenly aware.
While meditating, elves engage in dream-like mental exercises that have become reflexive through years of practice. They may visualize complex problems, reflect on past experiences, or mentally rehearse spells and skills. This process not only rejuvenates them but also sharpens their cognitive abilities and magical talents.
After four hours of meditation, elves gain the restorative benefits equivalent to a full night’s sleep for a human. They emerge from this state feeling refreshed and energized, able to engage in their pursuits with renewed vigor.
