(PLAYABLE RACE)
Description:
The night elves are a retreated species of elf who in antiquities held several sovereign city-states in the vast underground realm that is Vechnost. In modern times, the night elves make up two distinct peoples; those who live in Vechnost, calling themselves the Silgothan, and those who live on the surface of the world and have decried their heritage to try and make a place among the surface folk.
Surface-dwelling night elves ruled in parts of Norrik for many generations and controlled a once tremendous realm with holdings in Navissia, East Tyria and what is now Earthrise. An army of mercenaries commanded by the Mithyr shattered their empire and left their people in ruin and retreat. Many of these night elves had no food, no water, no land, and no hope and so they followed long-lost pathways down into the world beneath and tried to make a home in the realm of their ancestors. The night elves found great cities, for generations abandoned, and made their home among the ghosts.
Of the few Silgothan factions who never left Vechnost, their cities that remain have suffered from ages of in-warring among their own people and poorly understood evils. The Silgothan owe their name to their sovereign god, forever coveting the lands of the sun, while most of their surface dwelling cousins prefer to worship Nocturne.
They range in skintone from a near-black to a pale blue, have white or cold-colored hair, and eyes in nearly every color. Silgothans who never left Vechnost are more likely to be of paler skin tones and shorter while the surface-dwellers are generally darker and taller.
