🕑 Added 2020-01-09 15:00:03 +0000 UTCAlso known as "the Elves of the Other" the arnitikos are a rare humanoid species that live in Omeria. Typically, Arnitikos are outsiders and wanderers who have no community to call their own. However, they are highly sought out for their martial skills as well as their ability to go unnoticed by undead creatures.
Arnitikos were brought into existence during the Hand of the Four when a door to the Other opened in Ayas Olyothyr and consumed the elven city of Ise Serin. Most of Serin's populace were killed during the event, but a small portionβ known as the Pale Fewβsurvived. These were the first arnitikos. The Pale Few resembled their former selves, except they lacked color in their skin and clothing, and their features were reversed, like a mirror image.
In addition to their undead invisibility and color draining features, Arnitikos do not require food or water to survive. Unlike elves, however, they do require sleep and must do so in total darkness. Without total darkness, they cannot gain the full benefits of a long rest.
