'''Aonic''' is the term used to refer to an ethnic group that exists on the planet [[Sel]].{{book ref|Elantris|2}} The Aonic people migrated to the region surrounding [[Elantris (city)|Elantris]] several thousand years before the [[Reod]] occurred. Aonic people are morehave lighter skinnedskin than people from [[JinDo]], with people from [[Duladel]] in between, since they're a mix of Aonic and JinDo.{{citebook ref|Elantris|19}} Most people in [[Arelon]] and [[Teod]] are of Aonic descent. They look similar for the most part, although the Teos tend to be taller than people from Arelon, and [[Sarene]] (who was from Teod) had light hair, as opposed the average brown hair in Arelon.{{book ref|Elantris|6}}

Only people who are of Aonic descent can be taken by the [[Shaod]] and become [[Elantrian]]s.{{book ref|Elantris|19}} The precise reason for this is unknown as Elantris predates the arrival of the Aonic people.{{wob ref|7592}} They are generally followers of [[Shu-Korath]].
