Shinel
Ice Magically Based Elvish Subrace
Blue Elves, Ice Druids, Shineys
General humanoid shape, except slightly pointed ears.
Skin colors can range anywhere from pale lavender to almost violet. Since they're not affected by the sun in the same way humans are, skin tones are not based on that; rather, it's based on the four main shades of their ancestors; the first four Shinel.
Average adult male height is 6'
Average adult female height is 5'9
The Shinel reach their peak height around 13 years of age.
The average adult male weight is 160 lbs.
The average adult female weight is 150 lbs.
The Shinel do not struggle with obesity.
The Shinel's hair is commonly a bright blue-ish color. Other colors include purple, teal, and very rarely pink.
Shinel's eyes most commonly have heterochromia; this is a dominant gene trait and a majority of the population has separate colored eyes.
Shinel actually are cold-blooded, but their blood isn't any normal blood. They thrive in colder areas; they can adapt to warmer temperatures, but it's not ideal. When they bleed, the color is a soft, thick blue.
While it is simply blood to them, other races treat their blood like we treat liquid nitrogen. Alchemists would use Shinel blood in freeze-based potions.
Shinel usually wear pale and cool colors. Their attire is crafted with cotton, leather, and the like.
Ice magic, strictly used for trivial and conventional purposes.
Shinel are not recognized for it but are responsible for the heavier appreciation of art and many discoveries in history.
Shinel are not fighters; they are not trained to fight and can barely defend themselves. They pride themselves on their peaceful and pacifistic nature. They are not very social outside of their own race and thus are a little known race.
The InHuman War
Humans still felt threatened by the Shinel, despite the Shinel being known purely for their pacifistic nature. Because of their irrational fear, humans sent out to massacre the Shinel to avoid a war in the future. The humans won with ease, wiping out the entire Shinel race, except for one survivor. The Shinel went down in History as an innocent and quiet race that fell victim to the humans' violent nature. Nobody really remembers anything else about the race.
