A quote about the race
The Fallen
You can't stand the smog that blankets most of Saevalux. If you are unmasked you have disadvantage on checks and saves involving sanity. You'll be irreversibly insane if you go uncovered for more than a year.

When you remove your mask, you must make a Constitution saving throw at the end of your turn. On a failure, you must roll on the Short-Term Madness Table.
Reequipping your mask is a bonus action.
While unmasked and making Constitution saving throws to maintain your sanity, you may substitute your Strength or Dexterity modifier for either your Intelligence, Wisdom, or Charisma modifier when making attack rolls. You also add your Intelligence, Wisdom, or Charisma modifier to your damage rolls.
If you remain unmasked for an extended period, you risk developing permanent madness.
Eladrin Racial Trait - Seasonal Essence
Autumn's Leaf Trail: As you move, you leave behind a swirling trail of autumn leaves. The spaces you move through during your turn become difficult terrain for other creatures until the start of your next turn. This does not affect you. You can use this feature a number of times equal to your proficiency bonus, regaining all expended uses after a long rest.
Winter's Grasp: Once per turn, when you hit a creature with a weapon attack, you can reduce its speed by 10 feet until the end of your next turn. You can use this feature a number of times equal to your proficiency bonus, regaining all uses after a long rest.
Spring's Zephyr: Your base walking speed increases by 10 feet. Additionally, when you take the Dash action, difficult terrain doesn't cost you extra movement until the end of your turn.
Summer's Scorching Stride: Your movement burns with the intensity of the summer sun. When you move within 5 feet of a hostile creature during your turn, you can choose to have that creature take fire damage equal to your proficiency bonus. A creature can take this damage only once per turn. You can use this feature a number of times equal to your proficiency bonus, regaining all expended uses after a long rest.
