Teled, sometimes called Teledden or just Elves, are the most commonly found Elves, and inheritors of an ancient legacy of the Allorn Empire, an Elven Empire that lasted for thousands of years. While their Empire eventually fell, the Teled continued to thrive in politics, art, trade, and magic and continued to be the second most populous people across the world of Aloria, only out-classed by the much shorter-lived Ailor. Teled offer an experience in both the traditional fantasy Elf, but also several variations with unique design alterations.
Design
Teled vary from culture to culture, but can generally be understood to look like traditional Elves with only the Llasada Culture appearing more mer-folk-like with tails, fins, and scales. They have a wide variety of different long/pointed ear shapes, skin tones, and eye-colors of practically any variation, except the Solvaan who are always blue-tinted in skin tone. When Teled mix with other heritages, their traits are often dominant, resulting in the typical Half-Elven ear-shapes, but generally they are not dissimilar from the other people of Aloria.
Cultures
The Teled Elves have over the millennia divided into Cultures much like the Ailor have, with customs and traditions that transcend nationhood. While once most if not all resided within the (old) Allorn Empire, these Cultures express different ways to play a traditional Elf. Below are depicted various Cultures of Teled, hover your cursor over the text to read more about them. You should choose one dominant culture for your Character.
Neo-Allorn, also known as Imperialist Elves, hail from nearly all states and nations that have Elves in them, but notably Val Allornavaal. They continue the pro-Magic and Imperial reclamation traditions of the fallen Allorn Empire and seek to establish the new Allorn Empire as a world power. Neo-Allorn are gracious, and poised but capable of deep insidious plotting and deceit. They seek conquest and glory for the Estelley Empresses. |
Amontaar, also known as Diplomatic Elves, hail from the city-state of Amontaar, a center of politics, commerce, and diplomacy. As a nexus between Empires, the people of Amontaar have always had to cultivate social networks and connections, a willingness to listen, and to pragmatically act and mediate to preserve their independence. Amontaar Teled frequently travel to Regalia to do political or economic business, a city like their own. |
