Newly arrived in Elanthia from a home where they served as a slave race, the [[Aelotoi]] loosely follow the direction of their rebellion leaders, but by and large they prefer to simply enjoy their families and explore their new home. They are so fresh from slavery that they are not yet empowered by the ego necessary to have a detailed political structure, with all its inherent struggles for power.

The Aelotoi are humanoid, standing an average of 5 to 6 feet tall. They are thin with slight bone structure. They greatly resemble humans, except their heads are slightly larger, their eyes are slightly larger. Their eyes are their most distinctive facial feature, the iris being always of dark hues (dark green, brown or black) and having no whites at all; the pupil of the eye is round.

Most interestingly, the Aelotoi are winged creatures. While their wings made them valuable for slave work on their home world, they are not strong enough to fight the gravitational pull of Elanthia. Thus, they are flightless. The wings fold against the back, and are diaphanous, insect-like, and can have varying shades of golds to silvers, greens, blues and browns. It is often easy to tell how an Aelotoi is feeling based on the position of his or her wings.

The three Aelotoi clans formed out of their distinct responsibilities during slavery.


Three aelotoi clans formed out of their distinct responsibilities during slavery. A fourth culture has emerged since their arrival in Elanthia.
'''[[Gaeh'deh]]''' consisted primarily of physical laborers who worked in the kiramon mines, and they now serve as the protectors of their people, learning to become adept in weapons and combat. In the Aelotian language, warriors are known as ''aehdo'' (m.) or ''aehda'' (f.).


=== Mrae'ni ===
'''[[Vaer'sah]]''', once prospectors who scoured their homeworld for minerals to harvest, have taken up roles as scouts and explorers. In Aelotian, travelers are known as ''vaerno'' (m.) or ''vaerna'' (f.).


<section begin=mrae'ni />The smallest of the three aelotoi clans, members of this group lived scattered among the mining camps of the old aelotoi homeworld. The Mrae'ni worked primarily underground as healers and performing minor magics to aid their people in enduring their slavery under kiramon rule, and thus their interests have evolved towards the mind. In their new home on Elanthia, they are actively pursuing the craft of healing, knowledge of plants, animals, and all things magical. The Mrae'ni are highly interested in all the elves are willing to teach them on these intellectual subjects.<section end=mrae'ni />
'''[[Mrae'ni]]''', the smallest clan, were the caretakers and healers in their mining camps, and have been eager to learn more of the flora, fauna, and magic of Elanthia. In Aelotian, healers are known as ''raeno'' (m.) or ''raeni'' (f.).

|Spirit Regeneration
<section begin=vaersah />This group of aelotoi are refugees from the roving colony of slave workers that the kiramon employed to scour their old homeworld's surface for potential mining sites. Because they had somewhat more freedom than the other two clans as they roved the planet's surface, individuals within this group are also among the most resourceful and forward-thinking of their race. Because of their background, the members of this clan are most interested of the aelotoi in pursuits such as tracking and stealth, but are not above lifting the occasional purse. The Vaer'sah have taken to wandering the continent of Elanith, much as they did their old homeworld.<section end=vaersah />

=== Gaeh'deh ===
==Race-specific verbs==

<section begin=gaehdeh />The Gaeh'deh are revered by the other aelotoi clans, for they bore the brunt of the physical labor demanded by their kiramon masters. Spread among all the mining sites across their home planet, the Gaeh'deh did the hard labor required to extract the metals, minerals, and other natural resources the kiramon demanded. Any Gaeh'deh would nearly always volunteer to take punishments in a Mrae'ni clan member's stead, to spare those selfless caregivers additional torment. The Gaeh'deh have, by virtue of their labors, become the warriors among the aelotoi. They are most interested in learning all they can about the weapons and combat styles of their new home on Elanith, but still hover protectively near the members of Mrae'ni.<section end=gaehdeh />

=== Cyrtae'ni ===

<section begin=cyrtaeni />After twenty years living in Elanthia, many aelotoi have wished to shake off old designations and embrace a new one. These have taken the clan name [[Cyrtae'ni]] and look toward a brighter future.<section end=cyrtaeni />

== History ==

{{main|A Brief History of the Aelotoi}}

While living on their First World, the aelotoi were offered sanctuary by the [[Arkati]] [[L'Naere]] during the [[Ur-Daemon War]]. There, on the new world they called [[Bre'Naere]], they developed a peaceful civilization and lived in prosperity—until the [[kiramon]] arrived.

On Elanthia, as the power of the [[Elven Empire]] waned during the Age of Chaos, many hostile and cunning creatures that had once been kept in check arose to prey on the vulnerable peoples of Elanith. One of these was the insect-like kiramon. Possessing a hive-mind intelligence and a singular will to harvest natural resources to aid their own transcendence, they battled the [[Illistim]] elves for a thousand years until at last the Illistim expelled them through a portal to an unknown world.

When the kiramon went through the portal, they found themselves on Bre'Naere. The aelotoi, having never faced any threats in their history, were unprepared for war and were quickly enslaved by the kiramon. Over the next fifteen thousand years, they toiled under their overseers, harvesting the once-lush world's resources until it became a barren wasteland. Their physical bodies were modified by the kiramon that they might serve better as workers.

In the year 5103, a rift opened in the Wraithenmist near [[Ta'Illistim]], and a band of aelotoi stumbled through. With their pupil-less eyes and membranous wings, they little resembled the humans that they once were. They were quickly pursued by kiramon hunters, but the Illistim guard fought the kiramon back and took in the refugees. In the months that followed, the aelotoi learned the elven language and recounted their history to their hosts.

On 13 Eoantos, 5103, speaking for a united Council of the Elven Houses, [[Myasara Illistim|Argent Mirror Myasara]] announced that the aelotoi would be granted the right to citizenship in all elven cities. In addition, an abandoned town off Whistler's Pass would be given to the aelotoi to settle as their new home. The town would become known as [[Cysaegir]].

{{main | A Brief History of the Aelotoi}}

The Aelotoi were once humans from Elanthia, given their own world by the [[Arkati]] [[L'Naere]] during the [[Ur-Daemon War]]. There, on the world they called [[Bre'Naere]], they developed a peaceful civilization and lived in prosperity—until the [[kiramon]] arrived.

On Elanthia, as the power of the [[Elven Empire]] waned during the Age of Chaos, many hostile and cunning creatures that had once been kept in check arose to prey on the vulnerable peoples of Elanith. One of these was the insect-like kiramon. Possessing a hive-mind intelligence and a singular will to harvest natural resources to aid their own transcendence, they battled the [[Illistim]] elves for a thousand years until at last the Illistim expelled them through a portal to an unknown world.

When the kiramon went through the portal, they found themselves on Bre'Naere. The Aelotoi, having never faced any threats in their history, were unprepared for war and were quickly enslaved by the kiramon. Over the next fifteen thousand years, they toiled under their overseers, harvesting the once-lush world's resources until it became a barren wasteland. Their physical bodies were modified by the kiramon that they might serve better as workers.

In the year 5103, a rift opened in the Wraithenmist near [[Ta'Illistim]], and a band of Aelotoi stumbled through. With their pupil-less eyes and membranous wings, they little resembled the humans that they once were. They were quickly pursued by kiramon hunters, but the Illistim guard fought the kiramon back and took in the refugees. In the months that followed, the Aelotoi learned the elven language and recounted their history to their hosts.

On 13 Eoantos, 5103, speaking for a united Council of the Elven Houses, [[Myasara Illistim]] announced that the Aelotoi would be granted the right to citizenship in all elven cities. In addition, an abandoned town off Whistler's Pass would be given to the Aelotoi to settle as their new home. The town would become known as [[Cysaegir]].

Aelotoi
Aelotoi.gif
Decay Timer 10 minutes
Spirit Regeneration 1 per 4 min, ×2 on node
Height 5' to 6', max 6.5'
Weight 68 to 203 lbs.
Languages Common, Elven, Aelotian

Newly arrived in Elanthia from a home where they served as a slave race, the aelotoi loosely follow the direction of their rebellion leaders, but by and large they prefer to simply enjoy their families and explore their new home. They are so fresh from slavery that they are not yet empowered by the ego necessary to have a detailed political structure, with all its inherent struggles for power.

The aelotoi are humanoid, standing an average of 5 to 6 feet tall. They are thin with slight bone structure. They greatly resemble humans, except their heads are slightly larger, their eyes are slightly larger. Their eyes are their most distinctive facial feature, the iris being always of dark hues (dark green, brown or black) and having no whites at all; the pupil of the eye is round.

Most interestingly, the aelotoi are winged creatures. While their wings made them valuable for slave work on their home world, they are not strong enough to fight the gravitational pull of Elanthia. Thus, they are flightless. The wings fold against the back, and are diaphanous, insect-like, and can have varying shades of golds to silvers, greens, blues and browns. It is often easy to tell how an aelotoi is feeling based on the position of his or her wings.

Cultures

Three aelotoi clans formed out of their distinct responsibilities during slavery. A fourth culture has emerged since their arrival in Elanthia.

Mrae'ni

The smallest of the three aelotoi clans, members of this group lived scattered among the mining camps of the old aelotoi homeworld. The Mrae'ni worked primarily underground as healers and performing minor magics to aid their people in enduring their slavery under kiramon rule, and thus their interests have evolved towards the mind. In their new home on Elanthia, they are actively pursuing the craft of healing, knowledge of plants, animals, and all things magical. The Mrae'ni are highly interested in all the elves are willing to teach them on these intellectual subjects.

In the Aelotian language, healers are known as raeno (m.) or raeni (f.).

Vaer'sah

This group of aelotoi are refugees from the roving colony of slave workers that the kiramon employed to scour their old homeworld's surface for potential mining sites. Because they had somewhat more freedom than the other two clans as they roved the planet's surface, individuals within this group are also among the most resourceful and forward-thinking of their race. Because of their background, the members of this clan are most interested of the aelotoi in pursuits such as tracking and stealth, but are not above lifting the occasional purse. The Vaer'sah have taken to wandering the continent of Elanith, much as they did their old homeworld.

In the Aelotian language, travelers are known as vaerno (m.) or vaerna (f.).

Gaeh'deh

The Gaeh'deh are revered by the other aelotoi clans, for they bore the brunt of the physical labor demanded by their kiramon masters. Spread among all the mining sites across their home planet, the Gaeh'deh did the hard labor required to extract the metals, minerals, and other natural resources the kiramon demanded. Any Gaeh'deh would nearly always volunteer to take punishments in a Mrae'ni clan member's stead, to spare those selfless caregivers additional torment. The Gaeh'deh have, by virtue of their labors, become the warriors among the aelotoi. They are most interested in learning all they can about the weapons and combat styles of their new home on Elanith, but still hover protectively near the members of Mrae'ni.

In the Aelotian language, warriors are known as aehdo (m.) or aehda (f.).

Cyrtae'ni

Main article: Cyrtae'ni

After twenty years living in Elanthia, many aelotoi have wished to shake off old designations and embrace a new one. These have taken the clan name Cyrtae'ni and look toward a brighter future.

History

Main article: A Brief History of the Aelotoi

While living on their First World, the aelotoi were offered sanctuary by the Arkati L'Naere during the Ur-Daemon War. There, on the new world they called Bre'Naere, they developed a peaceful civilization and lived in prosperity—until the kiramon arrived.

On Elanthia, as the power of the Elven Empire waned during the Age of Chaos, many hostile and cunning creatures that had once been kept in check arose to prey on the vulnerable peoples of Elanith. One of these was the insect-like kiramon. Possessing a hive-mind intelligence and a singular will to harvest natural resources to aid their own transcendence, they battled the Illistim elves for a thousand years until at last the Illistim expelled them through a portal to an unknown world.

When the kiramon went through the portal, they found themselves on Bre'Naere. The aelotoi, having never faced any threats in their history, were unprepared for war and were quickly enslaved by the kiramon. Over the next fifteen thousand years, they toiled under their overseers, harvesting the once-lush world's resources until it became a barren wasteland. Their physical bodies were modified by the kiramon that they might serve better as workers.

In the year 5103, a rift opened in the Wraithenmist near Ta'Illistim, and a band of aelotoi stumbled through. With their pupil-less eyes and membranous wings, they little resembled the humans that they once were. They were quickly pursued by kiramon hunters, but the Illistim guard fought the kiramon back and took in the refugees. In the months that followed, the aelotoi learned the elven language and recounted their history to their hosts.

On 13 Eoantos, 5103, speaking for a united Council of the Elven Houses, Argent Mirror Myasara announced that the aelotoi would be granted the right to citizenship in all elven cities. In addition, an abandoned town off Whistler's Pass would be given to the aelotoi to settle as their new home. The town would become known as Cysaegir.
