Elves of the Moon

[Midnus_Anarion 50]

Before I begin Id like to say that this is not my original idea, but I believe it is a great one. Also I understand if the GMs do not want to work in another sub-race and I don't expect them too. Instead I would like them to ok this piece of lore for full incorporation into aegis.

In all the history of the Elves, there is only one occurrence to appear in their history that remains a mystery. The Birth and existence of the Moon Elves. In all the records of the past, the first known Elf was Lady Lorileyl Austril, also known as Lady of the Moon, to posses the unique characteristics of the Moon Elves. Even stranger to note, is the fact any Elf can be born as a Moon Elf, be it a High Elf, Wood Elf, or Dark Elf. So long as the child is born during a full moon, something occurs to alter their appearance.

Gifted the name: Children of the Moon, these Elves are few and far between. Recognized by their silvery skin and black hair, they appear to shimmer like the moon itself. Their nature remains closest to which sub race their parents belong to, though it has been recorded that Moon Elves hold a higher respect and fascination with night time. It is also said they also feel a kind of euphoria during the full moon, often breaking out into laughter, dance or song for the duration of the night.

The explanation as to why this magical shift occurs during birth has been explored for countless years. The true meaning is still lost, though it is known as a magical transfer from the moon light into the elf child. With the birth of elven children as rare as they are, it is not uncommon for a celebration or ceremony to be held on nights of expectancy when the full moon rises. Many Elves respect the Moon Elves for being one of their kind and unique at the same time.

While Moon Elves seldom travel, they will seek out other Moon Elves or Elves of their Sub race to live and laugh together.

I hope you will consider this!
