The Elvish peoples descended from the forces of nature itself. Incredibly talented in focusing the arcane and many notable ancient scholars were elves. It is unknown where elves came from as they have no lineage through evolution but are believed to have descended from humans that tapped into a force so powerful that it changed them and their descendants fundamentally.
Arboriani (Forest) - Arboriani represent the arcane element of existence. Most Arboriani find city life to be suffocating, tending to mingle in small towns far into the wilds and countryside, incredibly in tune with their surroundings and possibly the most superstitious of any race. It’s no wonder since the Arboriani have a link with nature that no other could compete. It’s best that what they can see is unknown to the rest. Beasts and entities far beyond any human’s concept of perception are glimmers of auras hiding behind trees and street lamps to the Arboriani. Nearly every urban legend spawned from the gossip of Arboriani communities. Some mages can even see the lingering fog of death around those who’s time is limited. Others that brave the cities are known for their craftiness and agility to slip through alleys unseen. Rats and insects guide them through the underbelly to hide from the horrors that dwell within. Other are employed as smugglers or other more unsavory jobs that need the sixth sense to avoid detection. There is a large business in monster-hunting that Arboriani are commonly trackers for.
