Note: The First Elves are considered an extinct race. While their legacy is alive in elf minor races, the First Elves should not be used as a playable race by new characters.
The First Elves, or L’nai, are a mythic and foundational elven lineage believed to be the origin of all other elven races in Alathra. Existing in the ancient age of the world, the L’nai are regarded as the progenitors of the elven condition: long-lived, magically resonant, and intimately bound to the natural and cosmic forces of the world.
Though the L’nai no longer walk the world in their original form, traces of their essence persist in the bloodlines, rituals, and latent magic of their descendants. Their legacy splintered early into three dominant aspects: the Aure’lai (Sun Elves), the Sira’nai (Star Elves), and the Elva’rai (Moon Elves). From these lineages came all other elves, each carrying fragments of the L’nai’s primordial gift.
Some traditions suggest that rare individuals—most notably the Veyari—may still carry the L’nai spark in its raw form, allowing them to shift, adapt, and traverse boundaries between kin.
