They value and protect others freedom as well as their own, and they are more often good than not.

Emotional, powerful, in-tune with nature, the eladrin represent everything that was once wild and primal within elven-kind.

While technically a subrace for elves, the eladrin are unique and diverse enough on their own to deserve a bit of the spotlight.

The first version is now called variant eladrin and the final and official version of their stats is just called eladrin.

You can technically still play that old version but, honestly, its not worth it.

Unless youre building something that needs Intelligence, simply use eladrin and forget about the variant version.

There theyve taken elven architecture and culture to creative heights, melding nature and structure through the feywilds innate chaotic power.

Most of the original eladrin have since lost humanoid form and have been elevated into powerful fey, strangely, the eladrin we know today are those that showed restraint.

Eladrin are passionate, prone to wild mood swings, and generally go where their hearts take them.

The eladrin value and respect personal freedom, love music and art, and often feel compelled to surround themselves with beauty.

Its the link between their emotions and their appearance that really sets them apart from other elves.

There are broadly 4 states for an eladrin to be in, each one linked to a particular feeling and one of the 4 seasons.

Some eladrin will spend their entire lives within a single season or state, while some will go back and forth between them as often as they change clothes.

This state is linked to joyful and playful emotions, celebrations, and cheerfulness.

Eladrin in this state are often energetic, exuberant, optimistic, and prone to mischief while acting naive and careless to potential dangers.

This state is linked to passionate and wrathful emotions, confrontations, and anger.

This state is linked to peaceful and calming emotions, self-reflection, and measured resolutions.

Eladrin in this state are level-headed, well-meaning, open-minded, and slow to act without careful thought.
