Antalopians-The Monks of the Savannah

Origin of the First Mages
When the gods needed their influences spread into the world, Wey'vian took the purity of the antolope and asked Nautire to merge them with elvish purehearts. The result was beings that had the ability to call upon ether currents in a fraction of efficiency of Wey'vian herself! They with the help of the Rhinons, built the totems that allow the gods to travel outside to the ring of totems. They're usefulness grew when they taught elves to use magic, again the elve's abilities a fraction of the Antalopian. By the time war was on the dawn, most races knew how to use magic.

Attributes
The Antalopians physically look like a man or woman with the head and legs of an antolope. Their bodies are cover in fur and are thin. They stand about four feet tall without antlers, with them they stand about a foot taller. Many Antapolians are quick and agile. Almost none are warriors but they are skilled magic users and healers. Armor interferes with their magic skill and they aren't powerful enough to lift a blade. Many simply wield a staff for channeling purposes. Though easily defeated in close combat, when they begin mage duels, they normally win. Antalopians cannot be physically harmed by magic unless cursed, due to they're purity. They can read any magical charm,curse, or glyph. Overall, inside the frail Antalopian bodies are powerful wizards.
