Aen Elle

The **Aen Elle** (Elder Speech: *People of the Alders* or *Alder Folk*), are a cousin species of elves to the Aen Seidhe. The Aen Elle inhabit another world than The World as such they are culturally distinct from their Aen Seidhe elven cousin. The ancestral homeworld of the Elves was at the brink of destruction so both the Aen Elle and the Aen Seidhe left for new worlds long before the Conjunction of the Spheres. While the former arrived in a new world, the latter arrived and settled on the Continent.

## Physiology

Because of the superiority of the science and magic knowledge of the Aen Elle, they implemented genetic breeding programs as such some individuals can be 7 feet tall while the majority of the population is average human size. A good example of this is comparing Avaalac'h (average human size) to someone like Imerlith (who is tall and muscular). Like other elven races, Aen Elle have a century or two in the beginning of their lifespan when they are open to sexual relations and fertile as they get older they will lose interest in procreation.
