Ilyana

Ilyana, or Elves, is a race that appears in the roleplay.

Description
Ilyana are the elves of this universe. The race's origins are unknown but from them being called the "third most sentient being on the planet", it is rumored they appeared sometime after the Humans and Kalinth did. The Ilyana are a powerful race of hunters, gatherers, and marksmen/women. They also have an affinity for nature, with their magic and love for the environment coming from that. They have well balanced physical and magical strength, and often use bows and arrows or swords as their main weapon.

They have the ability to use their ears to hear far away things and can pick up on the fact that people are lying to them almost instantaneously. The Ilyana themselves have claimed neutrality for decades and prefer not to get mixed up in the affairs of people outside of their race. They have a very strict rule about not harming the nature in their respective cities/towns/villages. Ilyana are quite easily set off by people harming anything in nature and will go to great lengths to see to it that certain someone will feel the same pain nature did when they harmed it. As for the families inside of their villages, they are usually named after the element of magic they use. For example, if an entire clan of Ilyana used light magic, they might be named something like the "Lightbringers." Their first names are usually relatively normal and do not normally reflect the clans naming convention at all.
