Homebrew Bloodflow Elf Species Details
"However long life is, it is never long enough. Bloodflow elves, also called sanguine elves, took up vampirism as a means of extending their already long lifespans. In retribution, the gods condemned them to a life reliant on bathing in blood, absorbing it through their skin in order to prolong their existence. Now, they live in small, tight-knit, and conniving communities hidden among normal elves, which they hunt for sport but take great pains in covering their tracks."

Trance
Elves don’t need to sleep. Instead, they meditate deeply, remaining semiconscious, for 4 hours a day. (The Common word for such meditation is “trance.”) While meditating, you can dream after a fashion; such dreams are actually mental exercises that have become reflexive through years of practice. After resting in this way, you gain the same benefit that a human does from 8 hours of sleep.
