Desert Elves

Living near desert oases, Sun Elves are known for living in relative harmony with their human neighbours. They keep group sizes that an oasis can support until the Weave begins to shift, then traverse the desert for miles to find a new one. Capable of navigating across the ever-changing sands by following the flow of the weave, Desert Elves are some of the most valuable companions a person can have if they wish to travel across the Dry South.   Elves of this variety feature dark skin with warm undertones.

Culture

Common Etiquette rules

Desert Elves believe that it is wrong to hoard wealth for oneself, and if one is blessed with good fortune then they should share it with those in need. Hospitality is one of the most important virtues to these people, arguably even moreso than it is to true Fey.   Waste is highly frowned upon, especially because of how difficult resources can be to come across in the desert. Petty squabbles are to be resolved either quickly or away from where they can cause any stray harm, as they waste precious resources.

Common Dress code

Sun Elves wear clothes that are very similar to those of the humans they live alongside. Light, loose clothing that allows for a breeze to easily cool one off without exposing too much to the sun. While travelling across the dunes, they will wear white robes that cover almost all their skin, but dress down when making camp or when settled at an oasis. Bright colours are common in their everyday wear, often with unique dye patterns, and simple head wrappings are worn by both men and women.
