Elfil[edit]
Physical Description[edit]
Elfils vary in size and shape depending on their age. At a young age, they resemble chinchillas with gigantic, round ears that make up about twice the size of their body mass. These large, round ears can act as wings, though given their power, they are often used to propel the body through the air very sharply and quickly, instead of merely staying afloat. They possess stubby arms, legs, and a tail as big as their small body.
When they grow into adults, their forms change drastically. They have a slender build with incredibly long, lanky limbs and a very slim torso. Their gnarled hands are huge, sporting long nails bearing likeness to those of a humanoid's in their bluntness. Their legs resemble that of a generic mammalian hind leg with undefined nubs for feet. They have a long, scraggly, fox-like tail. They exhibit horns that curve inwards, four tiny spikes protruding out of each horn in the inner part. They have feelers on each side of their head. Their gigantic winglike ears follow a serrated pattern.
They have the unique ability to open dimensional rifts and travel through them to other dimensions. They also possess powerful psychic abilities; Whether they are awake or dreaming in their sleep, they are capable of emitting waves of psychic energy that can bring any and all simpler-minded beings to their whim. They are capable of absorbing other beings into their own body to heal themselves and gain more physical attributes.
History[edit]
Elfils are beings that hail from the depths of space. In the distant past, Elfils arrived upon multiple planets and invaded them, raining destruction on the native wildlife. One individual got themselves captured and was studied extensively because of their unique abilities. This led to the advancement of their civilization to the point of interdimensional travel and the invention of multiple inventions: artificial creations capable of their own sentience, the ability to create anything from nothing, and the ability to grant endless power. Upon reaching a deadly civil dispute amongst themselves, Elfils are now just as morally complex as any other people.
Society[edit]
It is unknown what kind of society the Elfils are a part of. It has been noted that because of their unique abilities, any civilization that has studied Elfils has been able to advance their own remarkably quickly.
Elfil Names[edit]
