Lumineth Realm-lords – Ydrilan Riverblades

Agile as a skimming stone and relentless as the driving current, the aelves of the Ydrilan temples serve the sacred aelementors of the realms’ rivers. They defend their blessed waterways with swift and merciless judgement, purifying tributaries befouled by corruption and slaying any who interfere. Those who seek to become one with the spirits of the riverlands must test themselves to their physical and mental limits, leaping into the churning rapids and attempting to weave their way past jagged stones and other obstacles as the current drags them along. As a result, these aelementiri warrior-mystics are distinguished – even amongst aelfkind – for the speed and agility of their movements. They embody in all things the restless motion of a free-flowing river. An Ydrilan warrior never retreats or hesitates but keeps surging forwards, their movements fluid and almost impossibly fast. Twisting and swaying aside at the last moment to avoid the enemy’s strikes, they respond with scything ripostes that open throats or pierce vital organs.
