There were three groups within the Iylari sub-race: [[Elves\|Linaeri]] ''(Iruaric: "Singers")'', [[Faendryl\|Loari]] ''(Iruaric: "Builders")'', and [[Dhe'nar\|Dyari]] ''(Iruaric: "Dark Ones")'' which were the Dark Elves. Their languages were Linaer, Kritiri, and Dyar respectively, which were progressively harsher but otherwise musical. Elvish languages preserved a significant amount of [[Iruaric]] within themselves. Shadow World languages ultimately descended from Iruaric. Glossaries existed for Loari and Linaeri. The [[Shuluri]] ''(Iruaric: "Wet Ones")'' resembled Iylari, except they had gills.

	Strictly speaking, Linaeri were "Fair Elves" in [[ICE age\|I.C.E. Age]] [[GemStone]] III, with Loari as "High Elves." The Dyari were an off-shoot of the Loari, considered an extreme form of their wish for power. They were not physically darker, unlike our [[Dark elf\|Dark Elves]]. Erlini were the "Wood Elves", much more common, who became [[Sylvan\|Sylvans]] in the modern history. Inconsistencies exist in [[Rolemaster]] and Shadow World on these issues.
