Saris'are (Grey Elf)

Grey elves are the natives of Phaelyn. Very few of them survive, as most bloodlines have died out since the majority of the population was turned into drow. A shallow gene-pool has resulted in loss of physical strength in many families, and barring inter-breeding with other Elvish lines they may eventually die out.
The Enchanters
Most of the surviving lines carry at least a small amount of Fey blood, resulting in increased facility with magic. Those from the surviving minor royal and minor noble lines carry decidedly more, and sometimes manifest deformities such as misshapen teeth, bark or leather textured skin, long four-fingered hands, and/or a crown of small spikes around the head. They also often have a peculiar resistance to charming magic, and may have some innate facility with it. These trait are carefully concealed from any non-Saris'are, and often from their own kind as well. Many Saris'are view "The Enchanters" (the connotations of the specific word used are negative in their tongue due to a distinct intonation, but it is otherwise identical to the La'Vin word for enchantment specialists, so it remains the best translation) as a cruel reminder of the magic and power they once had.
