Children of the Førstavoss

The Førstavoss are the common ancestor of all Elves today, they lived in the far north originating on the banks of the Northern Ocean. Legend calls them the fairest of all, and they were said to be of enchanting beauty, with skin tones ranging from grey-purple to silver, they showed great resilience to survive in their early years. The keen eyesight of the Førstavoss can still be seen in modern day Elves.

Førstavoss in the modern day do exist, but not as a stable sub-race. Every now and again, one will strike the genetic lottery and be born a Førstavoss. In most places this is viewed to be a point of minor intrigue, however in the Magolist Cults a Førstavoss’ birth indicates the parents have been blessed by their ancestors and are entitled to the same worship, even in life. This often means the child too is benefited indirectly.
