Hrarii
The Hrarii are a slender humanoid race that arose as a mixture of human and elvish blood. They have pointed ears much smaller than a human's, about the size of a fingernail, bone white skin, and either blonde, red, or transparent hair. The Hrarii average around five feet in height. Legend has it that the ancient Hrarii race performed some great sin, and to atone the gods cursed their race with the Obligation. Due to this curse the Hrarii live in utter isolation from the outside world, often building their villages behind dangerous obstacles or terrain.

This geas cannot be lifted and only ends if the quest is achieved or somhow becomes impossible. The quest cannot be something that would reasonably take more than a year, although if cirumstances delay it further the Hrarii remains bound. They can only be under one obligation at a time. Most Hrarii do whatever they can to avoid being forced on a mission, though there are some heroes that accept it willingly.
