Light Elves

***LIGHT ELVES*** - ***Khirin***

Ruler's introduction <- TO WORK ON

Light elves are an outcome of Celestians somehow mixing with humans. Starting as a rare specimen, they grew as a whole, independent nation, having their own separate from others' culture and history over many many years.

Light elves live close to nature, therefore their buildings are rather simple, not interfering with or destroying their surroundings too much. They tend to place their pieces of architecture on trees, buildings connected by various bridges. Being one of the most athletic races in Perridora they find no trouble with surviving in extreme situations that require a lot of fast reflexes.

This society is very gentle and outgoing, even towards their opposite, younger sibling of a nation - dark elves. Even if one came out of another, the two don't seem to find a common ground, a language. But even despite that, dark and light elves aren't at war with each other.  Other than that, this kind is open to welcome any newcomers and guests, making them one of the most known allies for pretty much all of the nations.

**Characteristics and basic information:**

Light elves are characterized by their unique beauty. Hair colors range from a warm blonde to fire-like oranges and reds, and eyes are often as blue as the ocean or silver like the moon. The most common trait, however, is their tail - it's strong enough to work like a third hand in many situations, but it's mostly used to keep their balance when they are off the ground. Other than that, they are great for expressing emotions. Light elves are easily charmed by beautifully decorated clothes, jewels, and especially gold.

Most of the light elves live off of sewing and - they are very skilled in cloths production that they sell overseas. Some nature friendly farms often let's them be self-sustainable fully.

**Aging:** Light elves can live up to 1000 years. They are not immortal but have one of the quickest healing processes in Perridora.

**Height:** Usually ranging from 6'0 to 7'5.

**Religion:**

Light elves celebrate the passing of seasons. Each season is represented by a figure, Veremis (God of Spring), Azana (God of Summer), Fidon (God of Autumn), Nadionne (God of Winter), and the changing of each one is loudly celebrated by feasts and dances. The gods don't have a very established appearance, but this nation enjoys dressing as their deities to show respect and admiration for them. Light elves aren't fans of sacrifices, but there definitely were instances of things, even living, being offered to the gods by the cultists.

**Strengths:**

*Courage and confidence* - Light elves are very outgoing, making them one of the most charming creatures in the world. It seems they are very easy to trust. Rarely do they have ill intentions, though.

*Athletics* - Each of the light elves is skilled in acrobatics. Their bones are bending further than most of the nations, so it's easy for them to dodge nearly every attack.

**Weaknesses:**

*Naive* - Light elves usually believe each person can be trusted, and that there's always some good in each creature. They can be hesitant when it's time to kill someone, even in self-defense.

*Loud* - Some of the Perridorans can't stand how noisy light elves are. Most are extroverts who cannot seem to know where boundaries are, especially when having fun.
