Avalors (3.5e Race)

Avalors

Physical Description

They have smoky granite colored skin and large, pointy, fin-esque ears. Their eyes lack pupils, (making them blind) but still have full irises. Height-wise they tend to be on the shorter side, between the height of a Dwarf and an Elf. Much like elves, they have pointed, angular faces. Having to navigate the tight, dark underground caverns they frequent, their bodies have become small, agile, and lithe. A full adult male, weighs about 115 lbs.

Lands

The Avalors have adapted to a lifestyle under the crusts of the land, deep into the abyss. Their eyes have long since lost their usefulness in the pitch black caverns of which they dwell. Cities have been erected in the largest of caverns to accommodate the various crafts and trades that frequent through the deep underground passages to other lands.

Language

Common is the general language of the people, but many know the languages of the other creatures that reside in the depths of the land.
