Elduain
Elduain: Elduain are Archosa Elves of 3rd or higher generations. They are an elven people out of ancient origins whose blood lines originated on Dark Star. They are also called Dark Star Elves and have branches of their own, the Elsuven, or Nether Elves, included. Few Elduain dwell beyond their home world. These people were blessed with supernatural gifts and immortal death transitions by their Archosan bloodlines, and traveled either by star ship or planar gates to the New World of Yhajma's creation (earth) and to Morashtar. The Elduain can only conceive children out of other Elduain, Archosa of elven lines, Arcanon, Mogduain, or Anduain. Every Elduain has a first name followed by the line they were born from, for example; Morgrim of the line of Agreph, Achillian of the line of Belial. This aids both in preventing inbreeding and strengthening lines.

Dark Star Disadvantages
Resurrection Penalties: The risks taken in resurrection are a penalty alone, but added to that, each transient death makes subsequent resurrections harder by +10%, at up to 90% difficulty max.
Regeneration Penalty: Dark Star are self healers, and any attempt by others to heal them damages them by power of healing roll at normal damage.
Legendary Immortals: Anduain, Mogduain, and Arcanon are legendary as immortals and as such; they are sought after by those who would try to control, destroy, or enslave them. Other Dark Star are also risk as they might be targeted to bait their progenitors, who will not stand idle while their kin are being threatened.
Hard to Kill: Though an advantage, it is also a disadvantage, for they are forced to suffer incredible pain at the hands of those who attempt to slay them.
Dark Star Resurrection and Fate Rolls - 1 d6
1-The Resurrection fails owed to past mistakes and the Dark Star is plunged into either Acheron (1-3) or Annwn (4-6). In one of these underworlds the Dark Star undergoes a Death Journey which pits him against his sins, fears, doubts, and flaws, and if the Dark Star fails his test, he becomes one of the fallen and either a ward of Acheron or Annwn whose fate is out of his hands. If he succeeds, a powerful denizen of the underworld he fell into raises him as a mortal with no memories of his past, power or greater knowledge.
2-The Dark Star's soul is seized by the Morning Star and his spirit is ripped from his body and plunged into rebirth to be reborn as a mortal child of mortal parents. He lives as a mortal until he dies as a mortal to undergo a death journey in Acheron (1-3) or Annwn (4-6) which triggers his immortal resurrection if he triumphs against his sins, fears, doubts, and flaws in one of these underworlds. If the Dark Star fails his test, he becomes one of the fallen and either a ward of Acheron or Annwn whose fate is out of his hands.
3-The Dark Star is resurrected but plunges through a dimensional gate to a random location on either Planet Dark Star (1-3) or Morashtar (4-6) and wakes on the world with no memory of his past, his powers, or who he is. He is however immortal when resurrected.
4-The Dark Star's resurrection leaves him completely vulnerable and either (1-2) his body and soul are snatched by an Alamascan who possesses his form and traps his soul within a powerful ring he wears; or (3-4) a powerful demon or devil snatches his body and soul to do with him what he will; or (5-6) the Morning Star guides his destiny in rebirth or resurrects him in a chosen location.
5-The Resurrection fails and his spirit bypasses a death journey to raise him in spirit form. He must remain in spirit form until the Morning Star determines his fate by guiding his rebirth, choosing his destination and parents for him.
6-A Self Resurrection goes as planned and as hoped for and all memories as they were are intact. If resurrected by another the Anduain suffers a penalty (as called by GM).
Note: If Arcanon come under the control of another being, they have a 50% chance of resisting any influence or force beyond themself and their death journey.
