Alfar

Alfar
Both Plains and Valley Alfar come from a shared heritage as children of Feyus, the sun god. Their ancient homeland was destroyed by Iridian and Tokai invaders, and then torn apart by civil war and famine. Those who remain in Morata serve as followers of Zastillifar and shun the “traitor-god” Feyus. Others exist as "Blood Knights" who wander the islands of Iridia as pirates, taking revenge on the Iridians who destroyed their home.

Alfar are friendly and open to new friends. They enjoy casual conversation and getting to know new people and places. They are loyal to a fault however, and will never forget an enemy in their long lives. They tend towards good alignments and usually worship Feyus or Lesellia. Alfar society is egalitarian and very respectful of religious figures. Age matters little to them, and after reaching adulthood all Alfar are considered equal.
