Homebrew Dwelvan Species Details
Dwelvans, referred to as dwelfs by those not of their ilk, are few and far between. In fact, those that don't go out adventuring may never meet another in their first 100 years. Inheriting traits and characteristics from both races, while never truly belonging to either, both the words limber and lumber can define their features. Shorter than the average human, but they are often as stocky as a smith. While strong, many are believed to lack the lifepower (lower constitution) of either of their kin.

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.
