Humans
Elves
Elves are longer lived than Humans on Reydala. The average raito of years in development compared to Humans is 1 human year for every 5.5 elven years.
High Elves
The term high elf in Reydala more often than not refers to elves from Leyandra. Highly cultured and civilized, and for the most part arrogant, high elves see themselves as the direct descendents of the gods, forged in their own image. They are often studious or artistic, and the ways of magic came rather easy to them. Most high elves worship a pantheon that includes the four elemental goddesses and Nathicana.
Sylvan Elves
A term introduced to distinguish them from high elves, Sylvan elves mostly reside in Walstad and environs, though many exist across the globe. Not nearly as arrogant or as studious as their brethren in Leyandra, the Sylvan elves are known to be willing to make comprimises with their human neighbors. Landed long ago from Leyandra in the lush woodlands of Walstad, the Sylvan elves have grown an even deeper consideration for the land and its beauty. Sylvan Elves mostly worship the same pantheon of the High Elves, though they tend to emphasize Terrema in their prayers.
Ice Elves
The Ice Elves are a small, very mysterious, race. They live on the frozen wastes, the large ice plain that lies between Leyandra and Krasevae, a cold and bitter land where very few things survive. Militaristic and isolationist, both Leyandra and Kaltia have been threatened many times by Ice elf attacks. The reasons for their belligerence is largely unknown, though some attribute it to their worship of the Ice Queen, a cold and war-like matron.
