Lore and Information
-
Elsin are a race of agile Aphex that are usually found in naturally dense areas of the wilderness. They are incredibly quick and flexible, allowing them to easily dash from threats. Aside from their agility, Elsin have a strong connection with nature. They can listen to the trees and plants, allowing them to know of incoming threats or locations of others and objects. Plants are not the only beings they share a connection to , however, animals are much calmer around them and cautious creatures often let Elsin close enough to touch.
One of the most defining aspects of Elsin is their exotic voices. They can sing the most beautiful melodies which can reach up to a 1km radius. An Elsin song can be used for many different reasons. Sometimes they are used to attract a mate, warn of danger, to lure a being towards them, or even entertainment for themselves and others. Elsin almost entirely live among the wilderness. They often feel disoriented when away from large patches of forest.
Elsin also have the unique ability to change into their "true form". This form has the body of a deer and the head of an Aphex. The Elsin's horns in this form have the ability to glow and leave trails of light in the forest that slowly disappear over a few minutes. Coupled with their songs, Elsin have been documented singing in this form as they dance, leaving unique trails of light in their wake.Tainted by hands that we do not call home.

True Elsin Form
Elsin True forms can be added to an Elsin's gallery through a claim. You do not have to submit this form as soon as they are changed to the sub-species, Elsin.
These forms must share identical coats as their normal forms, and the same traits and placement where possible (excluding body modifiers like Naga anatomy, mermaid tail etc).
True Elsin form anatomy can not be changed. They must keep their hooves/ deer body but mouths can be added if the normal Elsin form has a mouth.
True Elsin forms must essentially be identical to the normal form in trait and marking wise where possible.
The horns have the ability to glow and make a trail, this can be shown in this masterlist entry or in a separate headshot on the same image. It isnt required.
