Their appearance is characterized by harmonious forms, straight hair and pointed ears. They are not as tall or robust compared to Diaboli and Humans, but still more so than Lemurs. The Elves are naturally inclined to philosophy, meditation and mysticism, with a strong respect for the ancestors; in fact, in spite of the prohibition, some groups secretly belong to the cult of the dead, stealing corpses from the procedure of expulsion.

Physical Traits

The Dermorians have an amber-colored or copper-colored skin and their hair ranges from brown to red, never black, rarely blond. They are from 1.50 m to 1.65 m tall.

History

The Dermorians originally come from Dermoria, about which little is known. They fled their lands, driven away by a horde of nomadic knights. After finding a magical portal, presumably created by Vodùl, they arrived in the Stone Labyrinths. Roaming these caves, they came into contact with an avatar of Laanx, who intended to prevent them from reaching Yliakum. Instead, he led them to a seperate cave full of water and game. As there are Dermorians living in Yliakum now, they eventually found their way, probably being one of the last races to arrive.

Abilities and Fields of Interest

Due to the long roaming in the Stone Labyrinths searching for a final place to live, their race developed even more their acute vision, at the point of being capable to see in the dark. In Yliakum, the best hunters of the Labyrinths are the Dermorians, mainly due to their aptitude of surviving even in extreme situations, obtaining food and water cultivating the soil.

They are native of a land called Dermoria and before the arrival to Yliakum their habits were tribal and characterized by the love of nature; they were nomads in search of new pastures and hunting areas.
