adolescent form in a flash of light and energy
Elysian
Elysians are refugees from a
world obliterated by The
Calamity. There are very few
Elysians in existence, as the
vast majority perished.
Personality: Elysians feel deeply,
their very emotions often having
tangible real-world effects.
Relations: The Common Accord is
grateful for the aid lent by the Elysians in
ages past, though some blame the Calamity on the
arrival of the Elysians. Elysians are considered part of the
Accord, though they never were officially added to it. Elysians
have a strong enmity against worshipers of Norokk.
Elysian Lands: Elysians no longer have a home of their own.
Religion: Nearly all Elysians revere Alune, Solara, or both.
Names: Elysians have names unique to themselves. Some example
Elysian names are Agmael, Belqiel, Chobol, Dalqun, Malaphon,
N’Sumah, Temzir, Vudil, Zirut.
Elysians always hear their name when spoken intentionally, even
across vast distances. The Elysian may attempt a Lore check to
identify the speaker.
Adventures: Elysians are driven to adventure by emotions. Justice,
anger, sorrow, and love are often strong motivators.
Average Starting Age: Elysians don’t generally leave their family
until they are an adult, which could be from 3 to 40 years, depending
on how large their family is.
Gender and Family: On Elysia, the Elysian family varied from a
single Elysian to hundreds. Families in Elysian culture are about
deep emotional connection. On Annor, the rarity of Elysians is such
that families of more than half a dozen are unheard of.
Elysians are born of intense emotions, usually from the joy of
Elysians bonding together in love or from the sorrow from the death
of someone they loved. The process looks much like a slowly
growing orb of light that follows its parents about and usually takes
anywhere from one to five years from inception to glimmer. The
more Elysian parents of a child, the faster the creation of the Elysian
child, as life experience of each parent is what nurtures and forms an
Elysian child. When the orb matures, the Elysian bursts forth in

As Riala’s mother mourned the death of her people in the Calamity,
Riala was born as a pale blue orb of light. In the battles for Prax
against the subsequent Infernal invasion, she was slain over the Sea
of Val. Adrift and alone, Riala’s orb sought its own kind.
Riala’s orb wandered the sea for three hundred years before arriving
in Skevin. Sadly, no Elysians were to be found. It was another twenty
years before an Elysian arrived and recognized Riala’s orb for what it
was. He then took it under his wing and home to his family in Siathu.
