Dust Elf (5e Subrace)
Dust Elves[edit]
Dust Elves are natives of the Cresent Isles, east of Iriqualah. Their tan skins reflect on their sandy surroundings. The elves' barren homeland caused these elves to know how to live under extreme conditions. Due to the lack of rations, the dust elves can go for days without eating or drinking without being affected by that.
Similar to other elves in Iriqualah, the Dust Elves arrived in the Cresent Isles from the Star of Sharna (IPA:[ˈʃɔnə], translit.[Shauna]). Unlike the other Iriquali Elves, the Dust Elves chose to remain on the island. They used the desert island to their advantage by building sandstone buildings and Najaruf-skin tents. They settled near a prebuilt Dwarven well and named their settlement Meah Shaeriah.
Poetry and ballads are an important part of Dust Elven culture. It is said that 9 out of 10 Dust Elves can write decent poetry.
