Plus Psionic and Primal were common, but Divine rare, and Martial virtually nonexistent among the Eladrin.In 5e 2024, these are several specific backgrounds, that grant the +2 to the score of Intelligence or Charisma, and relate to officials and other courtiers within a Fey Court.Especially, Eladrin politics revolves around magical pursuits, of person and community, and the meritocratic status of powerful mages.The Eladrin culture features an annual sacred Revelry that representatives from all Fey Courts attend, from around the multiverse. In the Material Plane, High culture also maintains Fey Courts as the government system of each of its communities, and representatives from these also attend the Revelry. Individuals attend the Revelry on their own volition. The Revelry is a time of intense political alliance building, diplomacy, economic transaction, as well as extravagant magical entertainments and mage duel sports, plus a time of dating, love, matchmaking, and wedding celebrations. This is also when the Eladrin perform massive collectively participating "mythal" rituals that alter Eladrin communities in various ways. This sacred Revelry is mainly an Eladrin Bard institution. Similarly, thru the year, Bards are often the leaders of local spiritual communities, who celebrate the Eladrin heritage and values, and emphasize creative self-expression via magic. During the year, the Eladrin tend to focus intensely and stoically on various magical pursuits and ambitions. But during the week of the Reverly, the Eladrin tend to go all out.The High Elves have a distinctive Ancients Paladin faction which enjoys some prominence at certain Eladrin Fey Courts. Certain (Scottish-esque) Eladrin Courts privilege Ancient Paladin and Fey Warlock, with features boosting Healing magic, and whose head of court is a matriarchal office. The Bladesingers and Eldritch Knights tend to be High culture only, but are appreciated and respected even if viewed as "exotic". Notably, there are Elves from the Eladrin culture who immigrate to become part of the High culture, and viceversa.</blockquote>
