Like the latter, they gear their lives toward survival in the polar wilds. However, they have the same loves of beauty, learning, and exploration as the Moon elves. While the Voneress consider the wilds to be a source of beauty and art, like the Wild elves, they also appreciate their own creations and are experts at building and carving large ice cities from the living glaciers they call home.  Furthermore, creative talents and taste range through forms of music and other artistic expressions, although, as a whole, they tend to prefer their own culture's art to that of others.    Physical Description: Voneress are physically adapted for survival in the harsh terrain of the arctic region. They tend to be stronger, faster, more fit, and more agile than most of their elven brethren.  They have a sky blue skin tone evolved for easy camouflage in the icy wastes.  Their hair tends towards silvers, whites, and various shades of blond with eyes generally of sapphire blue or lavender. Ice elf clothing is functional and simple, yet elegant.  They prefer icy colors of whites, blues, soft grays, etc. and generally tend to wear light leathers and soft furs.    Relations: Winter elves are surprisingly open emotionally to strangers and visitors. They are not as open as their Moon elf cousins but more so than their xenophobic sylvan cousins.  However, if crossed, the vengeance of a Voneress is unmatched by any but their distant Drow kin.  Ice elves are on good terms with the human races of the great glacier as well as having allies among the Alaghi who also dwell in the icy region.       Alignment: Although of elven descent, winter elves tend toward neutral good, not generally having a need for a strict law system, but have learned through the necessity of survival that the more frivolous nature of their kin is not the way of life for them.       Voneress Lands: The Voneress live in the wilds of the arctic regions. They live in great cities carved out of ice and crystal in the deepest of glacial wastes. They hunt game, gather food, and even grow plants in special greenhouses – their skills and magic allowing them to support themselves amply. Their contact with outsiders is generally very limited and generally only with ambassadors of the elven court or with the other races that have made the frozen tundra their home, as well as the few Voneress that make a living trading goods with the outside world.    Religion: Above all others, Voneress worship Rellavar Danuvian, the Deity of Frost Sprites, Protection from the Elements (especially cold), Ice Magic, and Ice Elves.  It is held in elven theology that Rellavar carved the first of the Voneress elves from the ice of the very heart of the first glacier. There are other Deities followed by the Voneress from the Elven pantheon such as: Mythrien Sarath, Tethrin Veralde, Fenmarel Mestarine, Sehanine Moonbow, Solonor Thelandira, Angharradh, and Corellon Larethian.        Language: Voneress are elves and speak elven as all other elves.       Names: Voneress are elves and use the standard elven naming convention.    Adventurers: Voneress take up adventuring out of wanderlust as do other elves. VONERESS RACIAL TRAITS·    +4 to Dexterity,  +2 to Constitution, -2 Wisdom, -2 Charisma: Voneress are graceful and extremely hardy due to their exposure to the harshness of their homes.  However, their remoteness and distance from the rest of the world’s sentient species tends to make them withdrawn and gruff.·    Medium Size: As medium-sized creatures, Voneress have no special bonuses or penalties due to their size.·    Voneress base speed is 30 feet.·    Immunity to magic sleep spells and effects, and a +2 racial saving throw bonus against Enchantment spells or effects.·    Low-Light Vision·    +2 racial bonus on Listen, Search and Spot checks.·    +4 racial bonuses to Hide and Move Silently checks when in their native arctic terrain.·    Immunity to all natural cold effects but suffer the following effects due to heat exposure: suffer a -1 (-5%) to all die rolls in temperatures between 35 and 60; a -3 (-15%) to all die rolls in temperatures between 60 and 85; and a -5 (-25%) penalty in temperatures above 85.  ·    +2 racial saving throw bonus against magical cold spells or effects, but suffer a –2 racial penalty against all Heat and Fire magic.·    +2 Natural Armor Class bonus.·    Proficient with Long Bow, Long Spear, and Long Sword.·    Voneress can Pass without Trace at will in any arctic region.·    Upon attaining 6th level in any class, a Voneress may summon a Medium Ice Elemental as per the spell Summon Monster 5 once per week, as long as there is enough ice to form the body of the elemental.·    Automatic Languages: Common and Elven.  Bonus Languages: Draconic, Giant, Gnoll, Goblin, Orc as well as Iulutiun, Angulutiun, and Alaghi.·    Favored Class: Barbarian (or Warlock - House CLass)·    Level Adjustment: +1Voneress    100 years: +3d6 / +4d6 / +5d6Voneress    175 years / 233 years / 350 years /+4d%Voneress, man    5’ / +2d6 / 100 lb. / x(2d6)Voneress, woman    4’7” / +2d6 / 80 lb. / x(2d6)</blockquote>
