Rootless Ones

Rootless Ones

Fleeing the slaughter by the humans when the Palace first arrived, this group of High Ones fled deep into the wildwoods. Over time, they took shape-changing further than any other tribe, giving up their four-limbed, elfin form to mimic the fungus, mold and plant life of the forest. In doing so, they disappeared from plain view and from their human enemies, becoming the most hidden of all elves on the World of Two Moons.

They eschew hunting and instead survive by scavenging. They do not kill for food; instead they feed upon the decomposition of those creatures that have already met a natural end. So hidden and transformed are they from all other tribes of elves, they no longer think of themselves as individuals with names. Instead, they exist in a collective, communicating only through group sending among themselves. When necessary, to deal with other elves, they will — much to their displeasure — regain a semblance of their original form.
