in the first form they look like half elves due to their elvish apperance but lack of the elves grace.

flavor
the Kaslakian were originally the rulers of a mighty island kingdom. In a titanic struggle against the evil dragons, they and their metallic dragon allies were on the verge of defeat. The island of Kaslakian was under siege and on the verge of breaking. They, in a great feat of high elven magic, the Kaslakian managed to destroy much of the Chromatic dragon army, but at a great cost to themselves.
The once beautiful and enchanted island now lay in ruins, for the spell had unintended consequences. Firstly, all magic on and around the city cease to function. After some time they Kaslakian realized that by directly manipulating the universe, they could utilize magic, but only at great costs to themselves. Also, the magic caused upheavals in the earth, causing the ocean around the island to become almost completely impassable.
As they began to rebuild their society, they began to realize that they too had been changed by the spell. They realized that as they grew stronger a connection was formed with their unconscious mind that held great power, if one could control it...
