Faraelin

The Faraelin, are a mythical race of nature guardians native to the wilds of Kylorne. Shrouded in mystery, the Faraelin act as guardians of the world's forests. Due to the sheer size and biodiversity of the lush jungles of the far southern wilds, Faraelin are most common in Vaurutir, where they stand guard, hidden behind the jungle foliage with bows drawn, protecting their forests and civilization as a bastion of the natural world.

Appearance
As kindred spirits of nature, the appearances of the Faraelin can vary greatly. It can best be represented by a scale from 1 to ten with 1 being an elf-like humanoid and 10 being a plant. Most Faraelin are around a 5. While variations in pheneotype can occur between individuals, there are also variations based on the biome and climate where the individual was born. Despite any variations, all Faraelin possess large, vivid green eyes that reflect light in the dark and even glow when magic is being performed. Faraelin are humanoid and have a slender, short build and are on average 5'5". Their skin tone can be any earth tone or shade of green. They also have large, pointed ears which lead many travelers to speculate that they are a race of elves, however, pointed ears is where their similarities with elves end. The most notable feature of Faraelin anatomy is the plantlike growths that grow on their body. They most commonly grow on the head, shoulders, elbows, and back but their placement and quantity vary depending on the individual. These growths reflect the origin of the individual Faraelin and reflect the biome of their birth. For example, a Faraelin born in the jungle might have jungle tree branches and leaves sprouting from their head and elbows. The growths can be any type of plant or fungi and that contributes to their extreme diversity sinc individuals can have flowers, trees, mushrooms, berries, etc. growing from their body.
