The Sylvakith are faelari-touched lithe humanoids imbued with wild magic, childlike wonder, and endless laughter. Their eyes are wide and gleaming, their hair a riot of untamed color, and their skin is painted with spiraling runes that shimmer with enchantment. They are tricksters, yes, but their mischief is rarely malicious. It is joy given shape. Born in [[Eldarwyn]], a twilight drenched forest realm where magic hums in every petal and root, the Sylvakith thrive beneath the canopies of ancient trees and ever blooming flowers. Here, the largest Sylvakith of any forested region is often crowned King—a role more ceremonial than controlling, but still held in reverence. Sylvakith rarely see danger as others do. They trust openly, laugh quickly, and approach life with an irrepressible sense of delight. ## ✦Roleplaying a Sylvakith Sylvakith are joyful agents of chaos, wrapped in innocence and wonder. They view the world as a playground, a puzzle, and a poem... often all at once. Consider: * Embodying their trickster spirit. Mild illusions, clever wordplay, or harmless pranks woven into daily life. * Speaking with musical cadence, letting your laughter become a magical motif throughout your journey. * Using your faelari-imbued runes for light, minor environmental control, or emotional enchantment. * Exploring the tension between their trusting nature and the world’s harshness. How do they respond to betrayal or cruelty? **The Sylvakith gain +1 to their [[Running]] skill upon [[character creation]].** *“We laugh because the world is heavy. We dance so it doesn’t catch us.”*
