Template:Magical Entities The Elantrians are a race of incredible grace and beauty that reside in the city of Elantris. People of any age, who are of Aonic descent, and who reside in or near the border of Arelon, are occasionally taken by the Shaod, which changes them into Elantrians. This consists of physical and mental alterations, and gives the capacity to use AonDor.

Physical Changes

Elantrians have "brilliant white" hair and "metallic silver" skin and appear to shine with an inner light.[1] Elantrian bodies are fueled and constantly renewed by the Dor[2], and if the Dor is blocked they quickly deteriorate. Elantrians heal quickly and can live much longer than a normal human.

Mental Changes

Elantrians have increased "insight."[1]

Magical Abilities

Elantrians have access to AonDor, a symbol-based magic that can be used in seemingly limitless ways. By drawing specific symbols, usually in the air, Elantrians were capable of instantaneous travel, healing, turning garbage to food, creating light, creating fire, creating a telescope made of air, creating disguises, etc.

It should be noted that their power seems to diminish the further they travel from the city of Elantris.
