The Elari are an ageless, androgynous demonic race with glowing red eyes and bone-white skin covered with arcane tattoos. Elari are taller than human height, averaging over 6' tall, but tend to be thinner, with their naturally white hair often dyed black or other vivid colors. A pointy-toothed smile and small bony protrusions on face and arms are a dead giveaway that you're looking at one of the Elari.

Personality
Elari have no sense of morality whatsoever. They are driven by an insatiable desire for personal power above all else and, unlike every other immortal race on Lorithandar, they are willing to take high risk gambles to achieve it.
Unlike the Faerie whose memories overwrite themselves, making them forgetful and eventually insane, the Elari enter a form of hibernation - a decades long sleep - at older ages to reset their memories.
Relations
They are uniquely disdainful of every other race and hate the idea of being subservient to anyone or anything, including gods.

Language
The Elari are known to speak a mix of Pandemonian and Seelie, planar languages which often inspire fear or discomfort in the average citizen of Lorithandar. For the most part their speech is formed of long, garbled words spoken in a low register and often broken by hard consonants or abrupt stops. Some Elari incorporate more of the growling, gnashing verbage common to Pandemonian into their speech. Many consider the language to sound particularly sinister.
