They are the most numerous of the eladrin cousins, being of fair complexion and appearing blue in certain light.
Racial Traits[]
Moon Elves have the following racial traits, which supersede existing traits
- Moon Elf Skill Bonuses
- Moon elves gain a +2 bonus to Insight checks and Streetwise checks. This benefit replaces the normal eladrin skill bonuses to Arcana and History.
- Elf Weapon Proficiency
- Moon elves gain proficiency with the longbow and the shortbow. This benefit replaces Eladrin Weapon Proficiency, which provides proficiency with the longsword.
Other racial traits are identical to normal Eladrin:
- Eladrin Will
- You gain a +1 racial bonus to your Will defense. In addition, you gain a +5 racial bonus to saving throws against charm effects.
- Fey Origin
- Your ancestors were native to the Feywild, so you are considered a fey creature for the purpose of effects that relate to creature origin.
- Trance
- Rather than sleep, Eladrin enter a meditative state known as trance. You need to spend 4 hours in this state to gain the same benefits other races gain from taking a 6-hour extended rest. While in a trance, you are fully aware of your surroundings and notice approaching enemies and other events as normal.
- Fey Step
- You can use fey step as an encounter power.
