Human, Elfmarked

The elvish legacy lives long in its people, and the half-elven people known as the elfmarked are no different. Many try to hide their elven heritage, but their ears and the elven magic that still runs in their blood sometimes makes the deception impossible. Because of their elven blood, the elfmarked are indelibly linked to the natural magical power of the world. This link can be useful to those who train in magic, though even those elfmarked who do not train have some magical abilities. When focused properly, the elfmarked can draw upon that power to do incredible feats.
