Alderis

The Alderis is an Ancient magical race on Heonia. They were the natives of Heonia and were the ones to protect Heonia when the great event happened. They are created by the shaper of the Magical Plane, whom they have been tasked with protecting the balance of the nature on Heonia.

"… And thousands of years ago, there were two entities. One of the physical plane, and one of the magical plane. They lived in harmony until a cataclysmic event knocked them off balance. The ending result was the creation of humans and their soul. The hatred between the two creators led to the negative attributes human withhold, such as anger, hate, and lust. While you people call us magical creatures, our species is called Alderis, and at first, we decided that we couldn’t like you. You see, physical plane humans have more power than us. The shaper of the physical plane created you with souls. Your soul is a magical gateway between our plane, and yours. We cannot tap into the magical plane as you can. Those stands objects you are finding, which are runes, help you with this power. You cannot charge the power in your souls on your own; you need the help of runes. These runes open your soul's gateway and transform something from the magical plane to the physical plane thus creating what we perceive as magic. The runes charges are not infinite, though, so one must be wary of that. While it would be an advantage to know dozens of spells from the planes, if one has knowledge of the runes, they can become much more powerful in their casts. As for the fighting… I believe we will cease our attacks. When you humans first arrived, we were startled. We thought the power from your souls would knock the balance of our island off, so we had to make you leave. It has been many moons now, and nothing has happened… Therefore, maybe we can live in harmony? And, do you know where our staff is? We would like it back."
