Eladrin
Eladrin are elves of the Feywild, a realm of perilous beauty and boundless magic. Using that magic, eladrin can step from one place to another in the blink of an eye, and each eladrin resonates with emotions captured in the Feywild in the form of seasons—affinities that affect the eladrin’s mood and appearance. An eladrin’s season can change, though some remain in one season forever.

Advanced Race Expectations
Eladrin are intrinsically tied to their emotions and their bodies can change with them. They may go through these Seasons daily, or never at all. Each Season represents a different emotion for the Eladrin and are as follows:
​
-
Autumn: Peace and goodwill, when summer’s harvest is shared with all.
-
Winter: Contemplation and dolor, when the vibrant energy of the world slumbers.
-
Spring: Cheerfulness and celebration, marked by merriment and hope as winter’s sorrow passes.
-
Summer: Boldness and aggression, a time of unfettered energy and calls to action.

At Season's Change
An eladrin’s season can change, though some remain in one season forever. You may change your current season once per Long Rest. Each season greatly effects your character's mood:
Autumn: Peace and goodwill, when summer's harvest is shared with all.
Winter: Contemplation and dolor, when the vibrant energy of the world slumbers.
Spring: Cheerfulness and celebration, marked by merriment and hope as winter's sorrow passes.
Summer: Boldness and aggression, a time of unfettered energy and calls to action.
​
Trance
Elves don’t need to sleep. Instead, they meditate deeply, remaining semiconscious, for 4 hours a day. While meditating, you can dream after a fashion; such dreams are actually mental exercises that have become reflexive through years of practice. After resting in this way, you gain the same benefit that non-elves do from 8 hours of sleep (a long rest). Furthermore, Eldarin may change their season upon using their trance.
​
Trancing is an intrinsic part of the elven experience, for elves peer back into their past memories to dissect them and learn from them. These memories extend back a century, and it is for this reason why elves are not considered adults until they've aged 100 years, for their trance will include memories of their past elven life within that span.
