Eladrin

"A precursor to most of the Elven races, the Eladrin are an ancient race who once came to this world- they are, however, rarely seen on the material world, making the sight of one a rare sight indeed."

Seelie and Unseelie Courts
The Courts of Summer and Winter, ruled by noble archfey. The culture of the eladrin is a free one focused on individuality, though most are beholden to either Winter or Summer in some way.

Wild Fae
The Wild Fae serve no masters, but gain no boons from either court of the gods.

Physical Appearance
"Slim, shorter Elven beings, Eladrin have a diverse, bright pallete of eye colors, blues, greens, purples, and even silver and gold present as 'common' colors, with lightly colored hair that can appear as blonde, silver, even red or green. Their skin is similarly light colored, ranging from a near-white paleness to a slight tan."

Positive Traits
Fae Blessing: Magic comes more easily to Eladrin, as a result of their fae heritage. Naturally adept at channeling mana in the environment.

Long-lived: Eladrin may live for hundreds of years, and only begin showing signs of old age towards the very end of their lives.

Seasonal Aspects: Eladrin that pledge their allegiance to one of the Fae Courts gain power during their chosen season, but are weakened during the opposing one. Additionally, magicks pertaining to their chosen season become stronger, but those opposing that season are weakened. This trait does not apply to wild fae.

Neutral Traits:
Arcane Vulnerability: As creatures of magic, eladrin are affected by magic more than others. This is usually a negative trait, but it does mean arcane buffs and the like will have increased effects as well.

Negative Traits:
Infertility: Eladrin rarely bear children, as a result of their long lives. As such, the population remains low, and new children are treasured.
