Galelves, Wanders of the Stars

The Galelves, often called Void Elves, are a nomadic branch of elvenkind whose origins are steeped in tragedy. Legends tell that in the dawn of ages, they aided the god of the night sky in his forbidden union with the moon goddess, defying the sun god’s dominion. For their disobedience, they were cursed by the sun itself, their forms stripped of daylight’s warmth and recast in shades of eternal twilight. Their skin turned to deep grey, painted with living constellations of bioluminescent light that ebb and flow across their bodies like drifting stars. To gaze upon a Galeve beneath a starlit sky is to see the heavens mirrored in mortal form.

Cast out by their kin, the Galelves became wanderers of the world. They make their homes in deserts, plains, and grasslands where the horizon stretches endlessly and the night sky reigns supreme. Their nomadic communities are small but tightly bound, marked by intricate rituals that honor the stars as their ancestors. Among them, silence is sacred; speech at night is soft and deliberate. Despite their exile, they are known for wisdom and grace, their folk songs slow and weightless as drifting sand.

The Galelves are the creators and masters of gravity magics, bending the unseen pull of the world to their will. They can walk upon air, lighten burdens, or crush foes beneath invisible weight. With unmatched hearing and night vision, the Galelves thrive beneath the stars. Though cursed, they have turned their exile into transcendence: a people forever adrift between sky and soil, shadow and starlight.
