Update 1.3 -  9th July 2024 - Fixes

Patches don't require updating


This mod adds a total of 18 additional Elven, Drow, and Half-Elven subraces to the game.
This includes 6 subraces for Elves, 4 subraces for Drow, and 8 subraces for Half-Elves.

These subraces are inspired by or based on a variety of TTRPG, including D&D 5e, D&D 3e and Pathfinder, as well as
a variety of older D&D content, including novels, sourcebooks, short stories, and adventures.

All subraces included in this mod are Homebrew in some capacity.
They are inspired by their sources, but their implementation may vary; some align more closely with their source
in skillset and/or lore, and for others their source was merely a starting point for my own interpretation.

Lolthtouched

Favoured of Lolth, whether through achievement or birthright, Lolthtouched Drow are outstanding members of their community. Afforded far superior
training than the average Drow, the spider's blood within their veins claims any weakness they may have harbored, resulting in a
near fearless avatar of the spider queen that instills fear and dread into anyone who lays their eyes upon them.

Half-Dusk Elf

Feeling a deep connection to both the natural world and the shadows, many Half-Dusk Elves leave their parents' secluded enclaves to discover what
Faerûn may offer them. Their elven ancestry imbues them with a subtle grace and an innate understanding of the shadows,
allowing them to comfortably navigate both light and darkness.

Half-Snow Elf

Half-Snow Elves are usually born to the few Snow Elf ambassadors sent to establish contact with human settlements beyond the frigid north.
Raised in these settlements due to the perilous nature of travel, they often lack the endurance of their Snow Elf parents, although they still retain
traces of the frigid magics inherent to their lineage.

Half-Star Elf

Star Elves enjoy integrating themselves deeply into unfamiliar cultures as a means of study, sometimes discovering love in the process. As a result,
Half-Star Elves are not uncommon and frequently viewed as a blessing. Blessed with some of their elven parent's abilities, they lack their distinct
naivety and wonder, as they are more familiar with Faerûn.

Half-Sun Elf

settlements, they lack much of the immense direct exposure to their elven parent's culture, yet still inherit some of their inherent abilities.

Half-Lorendrow

It is not uncommon for Lorendrow to ally themselves with one of the human settlements within the jungle they inhabit, often resulting
in the birth of a handful of Half-Lorendrow. They inherit the skill for jungle survival from both of their parents combined with a touch of
elven grace, making them formidable survivors.

Half-Lythari

While Half-Lythari inherit certain animalistic traits from their Lythari parent, they frequently lack their parent’s lycanthropic ability.
This distinction can sometimes leave them feeling estranged within the lupine packs they call home, prompting many Half-Lythari to wander
beyond, seeking a place where they can truly find belonging.
