History
The Tathvirs are an ancient bloodline emerged from the Mali’fenn. The founder of the Tathvir Bloodline, Amara Tathvir, was one of the few first Mali’fenn, and fought alongside her kin over the many decades until death do her part. Following the events of Amara’s passing, the Tathvirs were left for the wind and spread to cities far beyond their own. Only now, they are to be rediscovered, small in numbers, but thriving. Returning to their Fennic homeland, they have once more begun the effort to regather their kin amongst the people of the Princedom.
Physically Dominant Features
The Tathvirs range from 5’5 to 6’ tall, and have lean athletic builds - making them on the shorter side for Snow Elves. They commonly have pin straight silver locks, and turquoise eyes ringed in gold, which serves as a major giveaway towards their identity. Known for their skill as scouts in the Ivae’fenn, they are swift-footed and agile.
Attitude
Tathvirs are raised with ambition and pride in mind. They are humorous and carefree people, always looking towards the best in life. Due to these traits, they can usually be misinterpreted as reckless or childish when that may not be the case. The Tathvirs are race neutral, never welcoming, but neither against anyone of different kin. However, they do tend to stick to mating only with those of their race.
Specialties & Proficiencies
This bloodline is famous for their interest in herbalism and apothecy. They provide their knowledge of medicinal practices towards those in need, and are always busy researching new antidotes. Some Tathvirs take a different path, seeking interest in the performing or fine arts. In the past, they have been famous for their refined artists and talented performers. Their contribution towards the Bilok'thuln leans towards alchemy, relating towards their curious and creative nature.
In the sense that the Tathvirs are very lithe and agile people, they make great scouts in the Ivae’fenn. They always wear lightweight armor, or no armor at all, and use knives and short swords as their primary weapon, alongside the bow - making them some of the Princedom’s finest archers.
Ancestral Belongings
The Tathvirs have two ancient belongings-- The sword of Skalaer, an ancestral weapon passed down only to the bravest of Tathvirs. It is a short sword made of the lightest of metals, said to make a sharp whistling noise before being brought down on its enemies. Besides this, the Tathvirs have a family heirloom named the Ring of Skalaer which is handed to the eldest of their generation.
