Nymphs

==Nymphs==
===Opening statement===
Nymphs are a humanoid sentient species, as of writing this an uncommon sight in Eldham and I’d presume Rathnir also (albeit I’ve nether been). Nymphs could be described as the living embodiment of the differnt facets of the environment of which to a degree would be correct, the differnt races of nymphs all derive appearance and ability from natural occurrences such as the land , water or the sky.
“These writings are a collection of my own knowledge and experiences . As I myself Valrick am a nymph. So while this writing is as factual as I can find ,you may also get some inturjecture on interesting bits here and there from myself.”
===The variay of Nymphs===
Each nymphs 'race has certain bodily features which showcase the aspect of nature they derive power from, such as having parts of their body being ignited , Rocky protrusions or flora growing from themselves. There is one common aspect between each ‘race’ that is a diamond shaped crystal in the chest of each nymph. This acts as a sensory organ of sorts, enhancing the senses of them. It also acts as a way to measure the healthiness of an individual the brighter the shine and colour the healthy one is.
We have a word which describes the different types of Nymph which roughly means race , Variay. Nymphonian is written about further on.

====The appearance of Nymphs====
Nymphs can adapt and change much quicker, with The newest first know appearance of some Variay dating to around 300 years back. As a whole The first and oldest known nymphs appeared just over 1000 years ago around 1210 years ago according to a few early Liffore with all other variay appearing within that time frame, no new variay really have appeared since the full exploration of Weloutal believed to be due to a lacking of new environmental imputs, the arrival of Nymphs in Rathnir and Eldham however may change this and new variay may begin to appear. New variay appear based on the environment their born in, up until around a month before birth nymphs have no distinguishable variay. This explains why the newest known variay, Dousglasst appeared so late Because the deserts where mostly uninhabitable and dangerous for most nymphs. Very rarely nymphs can be born without having had a change to them, these nymphs are called Varial.
===Ageing===
All nymphs age much slower than humans, with sexual maturity being reached at around 32 human years, which is about the age of a teenager for nymphs. Furthermore the exact age limit for nymphs are unknown,
===Sensory crystal  ===
On the chest of all male and female Nymphs is a crystal that is embedded in the skin. This is a holdover from early evolutionary nymphs similar to a appendix in humans, however unlike an appendix it does serve two purposes one as a sensory organ, young Nymphs have smaller crystals and consequently less potent ability’s where , as it grows the ability becomes stronger. Furthermore the crystal can be used as a measure of health, with the gem becoming dull if the Nymph is ill or unwell. As mentioned the crystals are a sensory organ and touching  a nymphs crystal can Cause sensory overload for nymphs. All nymphs however bear this crystal. The colour depends on what ‘race’ of nymphs carries it.
===Nymphonian===
Nymphs don’t have their own full language due to that the sensory crystal Nymphs posses allow for translation between each other however place , people , country and some other commonly used words due follow a language
