Elves, Dusk (Jekkan)[edit]

The origins of the Dusk Elves can be traced back to the Wood elves who lived in the Grove of the Premordial Night. It is unclear why the Grove is enshrouded from the light of dawn, nor why the Elves entered the Grove in the first place, they most certainly underwent fascinating changes. From their hair to their skin and even their physique, they emerged from the Grove as an entirely separate people from their Woodland cousins.

Personality[edit]

Due to their narcissistic nature Dusk elves typically come off as jerks to people they just meet, and they are all the more rude when they are agitated. When among friends, they tend to be nicer but still has a tinge of jerkiness. Many Dusk elves find it difficult to be modest or generous to anyone beneath them in rank or stature.

Dusk Elves, also called Jekka, are taller and thinner than most elves. Their skin is pale, and their hair is either black (usually for males), or dark crimson (females). Brown or white hair is quite rare, while blonde hair is impossible.

Relations[edit]

Dusk elves often find themselves enstranged from other races and civilizations due to their supremacist disposition. They compulsively argue that their race is the greatest among all others. If their friends are of different races, they try their best not to enter such a debate unless invoked.

Dusk Elves are any alignment but Lawful Good. The is no such thing as a Lawful Good dusk elf.

Lands[edit]

Dusk Elves prefer nice, rather temperate forests. On occasion a Dusk elf may be found residing in the city.
