Spirit Child

Spirit Children are a race native to Cerphixen. The name Spirit Child is a bit of a misnomer, as Spirit Children are no more connected to the divine than other species. Currently, Spirit Children are nearly extinct, with few known surviving members.

Physiology
Spirit Children look similar to humans, but easily differentiated by their set of wings. In addition, Spirit Children tend to have a skin tone paler than most humans. They are also known to be physically frail compared to other species.

Like Existen, the color of a Spirit Child's wings and hair help determine what element they have an affinity to. Unlike Existen, Spirit Children have the ability to learn multiple types of magic easily, and it's possible for a Spirit Child's hair and wing color to change throughout their life depending on the level of mastery of the elements. Surprisingly, despite their close affinity with magic and the elements, Spirit Children are very resistant against corruption.

Spirit Children tend to live longer than humans, but shorter than Existen. The typical lifespan of a Spirit Child is 200 to 300 years.

Relations to other Creatures
Spirit Children have always had a good reputation of peacefulness and friendship with the other species. Most Spirit Children are vegetarian, though this is by culture and not by diet.

Despite rumors, Spirit Children and Existen were once close allies. Their rivalry only came about after the corruption of the Existen, and the Spirit Children were forced to fight to survive. Unfortunately, they were quickly overpowered and driven to extinction. It is known that at least one Spirit Child escaped Cerphixen, and there's hope for more.

Notable Spirit Children
Danil - Currently the God of Dreams and Patron Diety of Xephixir. Danil ascended before Xerizero's rise to power, and helped his defend his species in their final hours. After being unsuccessful with that, he became possesed by his impure fraction, so things haven't been going too well for him lately.

Zepheus fi Nintendria - Zepheus' origins are largely unknown, other than he was dropped off at the Nintendria castle as an infant. Ever since, he's been raised as our loving brother.
