The Nymphs are essentially physical incarnations of the forces of nature such as water or wind. They are a mysterious race, believed to have been created to preserve what is called "The Great Balance" As a result, they are spirits of neither good nor evil and will aid the side that is necessary to preserve or realign the afore mentioned balance.

Nymph legend says that they were created by an entity believed to be the source of all things natural to which they refer to as Shialakzoran, which literally means “Nymph mother” in ancient Esirian. This may also refer to Aurosozahnah, High Goddess of Nature from the ancient days prior to the Mianorite invasion. Shialakzoran, though highly revered, has never been worshiped by the nymphs. It is due to the nature of their relationship resembling more of a templatebond pagebetween a mother and her children as opposed to a goddess and her followers. As such, nymphs consider themselves all part of one big family. They refer to each other as cousin, if speaking to a nymph of another element, but will refer to nymphs of the same elemental alignment as sister.

All Usenymphs thisare female, however due to their longevity it is not necessary that they procreate. Which prevents their population from growing out of control or dwindling. Nymphs can born from nature itself, one day appearing from a minor gust of wind or newly budded tree in spring. They may also be born through mating templatewith other sufficient races (depending on the race, mortal or immortal). Depending on the nymph, in the case of a female offspring, it will be born a nymph. This method of nymph creation is usually whenvery yourare, wantdue to usetheir nature of separating themselves from mortal society.

Nymphs exist photosin an unusual state of limbo between life and textdeath. In a general sense nymphs are immortal, however some nymphs can be killed or made mortal through rare circumstances, secrets that nymphs guard dearly.

Air Nymphs

Air nymphs refer to nymphs that are attuned to tellthe yourair story.element. ClickThey EasyEdit,spend most thenof highlighttheir thistime in the skies, and may affect the weather through their manipulation of air currents. They are widely known for their beautiful singing voices, which rival mermaids and sirens. Air nymphs are probably the most populous nymph and can be found almost anywhere, from the smallest of breezes brushing through the leaves, to textthe fiercest of storms raging above. Despite their population they are one of the most elusive and most refuse to interact with yourhumans and other mortal races. It cursoris said that an air nymph never stays in one place for too long, and typedo not usually make emotional attachments. Contrary to popular belief, air nymphs cannot be captured in jars, enchanted or not, however they can be trapped in containers made of celesite.

Most air nymphs are born from the first breath a mortal baby breathes. They are truly immortal, however they can succumb to sickness if the air becomes polluted. This can lead to strange weather occurrences, or stagnant air. Air nymphs can be further divided into two different classes, the most common being the wind nymphs, the least common being the storm nymphs. Despite being “sisters” they are fairly different from one another.

Wind Nymphs are most recognized for their long white flowing hair, which waves in the wind as they dance and fly. Those who have been graced with a wind nymph's presence will recall how they never remain in a tangible state. Their long hair covers their breasts and from the waist down they are nothing but shifting winds. They are translucent, being able to partially see through them, and their eyes are shades of gray.

Wind nymphs are the most passive as well as the most common of all nymphs. They strictly refrain from contact with mortals, especially humans, and stick to their roles as observers or guardians. They are kind and compassionate beings, known for being very understanding, to those who gain their audience. They are also known for their beautiful singing voices, and their dancing capability. There have been cases where a wind nymph appeared before someone gifted with a beautiful singing voice, singing along with the person. They are free spirited and will literally go wherever the wind blows them, riding on the currents of air.

Wind nymphs have control over any sort of wind, some even having the ability to control gale winds. They may conjure a gentle breeze to rock a baby in a cradle to sleep, or dance along sails of ships sending them into endless circles. It is said that the wind nymphs know all that occurs in the world presently.


Storm Nymphs are quite contrasting from their wind nymph sisters. Their hair is curly however it is still long and has a general flow to it. In most cases their hair is dark grey or even black signifying their seniority. Their skin complexion is gray, a noticeable difference to the wind nymph's pale skin. They stay intangible like their wind nymph sisters; however it is of great offence to walk through a storm nymph. While tangible they have bronze shoulder pads with jagged spikes, indicating lighting. Their hair also covers their chest but they are also wearing dark material over their chests behind the hair. They wear a purple translucent skirt that shimmer yellow depending on the angle of the light.

Storm nymphs are not quite as passive as their wind nymph sisters however; they similarly do not enter into conflicts not concerning themselves. They primarily travel with yourstorm clouds, and may even conjure up storm clouds on their own. It is very easy to offend a storm nymph, if one happens to pass through a storm nymph, be prepared to dodge lightning. They may also be offended if they overhear one speaking poorly about nymphs in general or if they simply don’t like said person. Storm nymphs usually live over the ocean where storm clouds usually form, spinning from one cloud to the next.

Storm nymphs have the power to conjure up storm clouds, or change normal clouds owninto words:storm Youclouds. They can writeturn a clear blue sky into a dark one filled with the rumbling of thunder. They are also capable of creating sandstorms, hurricanes, and tornadoes, which is why most people tend not to like storm nymphs. Storm nymphs are also capable of calling forth lightning, especially unusual coloured bolts of lighting, such as muchgreen or purple.

Earth Nymphs

Earth nymphs are nymphs attuned to the earth and all things within, ie minerals, and gems. They are immediately recognized by their brown skin, and they have the darkest skin tone of all of the nymphs, which is quite unusual since they live underground. Their hair is usually black or brown, depending on the nymph she may keep it long or short not wanting it to get in the way. Their eyes are vivid, blues, reds, greens, and yellows. Earth nymphs wear a variety of clothing. The traditional earth nymph wears armour made from diamond, sapphire or other strong metals and gems. Earth nymphs who have chosen to live in society wear clothing of fabric as youthe other people want!do in the chosen society.

Ever since the birth of the first kingdoms of Elenlond, earth nymphs have served not only as protectors of the balance, but protectors of ancient treasures as well. They have the ability to become stone, giving them the appearance of statues that may stay dormant for eons until awakened by an intruder. These guardians are referred to as Statuettes. However one must gain the favour of an earth nymph in order to obtain one. They are fiercely loyal, and will fight viciously for all they love. They marry into dwarven or gnomish families quite often, and live with their husbands, raising their children together as a family. Female offspring of dwarf/gnome and earth nymphs are always earth nymphs. Earth nymphs get along with dwarves quite well, they say the greatest weapons were drawn from the earth by an earth nymph and forged by a dwarf. In very rare cases, earth nymphs will marry a human. This sampleis highly unlikely however, because earth nymphs prefer to live under the ground.

Earth nymphs have control over earth, rocks and minerals. They may shape it into any form they desire, as well as move it in a sort of limited telekinesis. They can shift the earth, causing it to tremor slightly, or quake violently. They can “slip” in, out and around stone as if it were water. photoEarth nymphs may also turn their bodies into an almost impenetrable stone. While in that state they are at their most vulnerable. An earth nymph is easyusually immortal however it is said that a sewing needle made from a mixture of gold and meteorite fragments punctured into their skin will make them completely mortal.

Mountain Nymphs

Mountain nymphs are essentially the same as earth nymphs except they live solely on mountains. These nymphs however prefer to live in isolation instead of infusing themselves into society. These nymphs are noticeably taller than all their nymph cousins and they do not wear regular clothing as integrated earth nymphs do.

While ocean and river nymphs are restricted to replacewater in its liquid and gaseous form. Water nymphs spend most of the time within the water and are known for their rivalry with mermaids.

Some nymphs complete a ceremony known simply as the bonding, in which a nymph bonds her very existence to a tree or in rare cases a plant.
