A Reflection of the Inner Light
The elves of Nhera possess a unique characteristic – a faint, ethereal luminescence that emanates from their bodies. This phenomenon is a direct result of their deep connection to aether, the life-giving essence that permeates the world.
Magical Talent: Elves with a strong affinity for magic often have a brighter and more vibrant light aura. This is because their bodies naturally channel more aether, causing the luminescence to increase.
Perceptions of the Light.
The Elven Light Aura is easily visible to other elves, who are attuned to its subtle variations. However, other races often struggle to perceive it. Humans and orcs, with their less refined senses, may only notice it under ideal conditions, such as deep darkness or very close proximity. For these races, the Elven Light Aura remains a thing of mystery and wonder, a glimpse into the otherworldly nature of the elves in the rare chance it's perceived.
More Than Just Light.
The Elven Light Aura is not merely a visual phenomenon. Skilled mages and those with a deep understanding of aether can sometimes sense the subtle fluctuations in an elf's aura. This allows them to gauge the elf's emotional state or magical power.
