Homebrew Water Gendrin Species Details
Gendrin are the offspring of Fey Eladrin and Water Genasi.
It's hard to tell a Water Gendrin just by looking at them, given their Elven parentage they possess eldritch features and physicality. It's only when a Water Gendrin uses their powers that it is certain they are no ordinary Fey Eladrin.
Water Gendrin in appearance look almost exactly like Snow Elves, and most don't retain the ability to change their appearance based on their mood. They have skin in different shades of blue, green and aquamarine, and white or blue or green hair. Their eyes are like pools of liquid and range from silver to blue, green or black.
With their unearthly grace and fine features inherited from their Eladrin side, Gendrin appear hauntingly beautiful to humans and members of many other races. They are slightly taller than humans on average, ranging from 5 feet tall to over 6 feet. They are more slender than humans, weighing only 100 to 145 pounds. Males and females are about the same height, and males are only marginally heavier than females.
Water Gendrin Traits
Gendrin inherit most or all the racial features from both their Eladrin and Genasi parents.Trance
Gendrin 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.

Fey Ancestry
Being creatures of magic with strong ties to both Fey and Elemental magic you have advantage on saving throws against being charmed, and magic can’t put you to sleep. You can cast the misty step spell once using this trait. You regain the ability to do so when you finish a short or long rest.

Age
Depending on the world you grow up in, Gendrin could claim adulthood the way elves do, and pick an adult name around the age of 100, or mature as humans and reach adulthood in their late teens.
Darkvision
Accustomed to twilit fey realms or dark oceans and the night sky, you have superior vision in dark and dim conditions. You can see in dim light within 60 feet of you as if it were bright light, and in darkness as if it were dim light. You can’t discern color in darkness, only shades of gray.
Languages
You can speak, read, and write Common and Elvish. Elvish is fluid, with subtle intonations and intricate grammar. Elven literature is rich and varied, and their songs and poems are famous among other races. Many bards learn their language so they can add Elvish ballads to their repertoires. You also can speak, read, and write Primordial. Primordial is a guttural language, filled with harsh syllables and hard consonants.
