PHB
Elves (Síofra)
The hedonistic Uasal in their silver cities, the recluse Fiáin around their baobab, the proud Drow under their sunless sky. These are the Síofra, the elves, the people that were among the gods during the Divine Clash, witnesses to the birth of Man, Small Folk, and the Warring Hordes. Magical and graceful, they love nature and art and do their best to make the things they love a constant in life.
ability score increase:
Dex +2
age:
An elf can live up to almost 1500 years and is considered an adult just after their second century. This absurdly long lifespan reflects on how they rationalize and feel, being more often amused than excited, and more curious than greedy. It is easy to get on their friendly side, but slow to become a real friend or enemy.
alignment:
Elves love freedom, variety, and self-expression, so they lean strongly toward the gentler aspects of chaos.
Size:
Medium
speed:
Your base walking speed is 30 feet.
Languages:
The elven speak Teanga, a fluid, and rich vocabulary, with subtle intonations and intricate grammar. Every elf is taught how to speak, read, and write in Teanga and Ezor.
race features:
Keen Senses. Elves contemplate the world around them regularly, seeking illumination or enjoying nature. You have proficiency in the Perception skill. Fey Ancestry. With their roots within the Feywild came a significant change in how the elven mind works. You have Advantage on saving throws against being charmed, and magic can't put you to sleep. Friend of the Animi. Elves enjoy a stronger connection to the nature around them, and this helps them to empathize and understand better Animi and Patrons. Whenever you're interacting with an Animus or Patron, you may add 1d4 to your result in a Charisma (Persuasion) check. Támh. Elves don't need to sleep. Instead, they meditate deeply, remaining semiconscious, for 4 hours a day. (The Ezor word for such meditation is "trance.") During támh, you can dream after a fashion; such dreams are mental exercises that have become reflexive through years of practice. After resting in this way, you gain the same benefit that a human does from 8 hours of sleep.

Elves usually leave the other races in awe thanks to their supernatural grace and exotic features. They are taller than humans, ranging from 1,80m to 2,20m, and considerably slender, weighing around 60kg to 70kg. There is no default elven coloration, but often, they tend to have pastel and light coloration both on skin and hair. Their eyes glow in the most diverse colors, long eyebrows and even longer ears that grow the more the time pass.
