The Haela posses exceptional drive and a great capacity to endure and expand, and as such are currently the fastest expanding sub-race in Faelar culture. It is believed that they were first moulded and infused 8,000 years ago. For this reason they are considered by many of the Faelar hierarchy to not be true members of the family, and that they should be treated the same as elves
Inner Haela society is a strange amalgam of nostalgia and futurism, being enamored of past glories and wistfully remembered “golden ages,” yet at the same time quick to discard tradition and history and strike off into new ventures. They understand the distaste for them, and so choose to avoid large gatherings and social events - choosing instead to form their own inner society. Most Haela families can trace their histories thousands of years into the past. But when compared to the societies of the others like the Círdan, Haela society seems to be in a state of constant flux as empires fragment and new kingdoms subsume the old. In general, The Haela are known for their flexibility, ingenuity, and ambition to expand.
Haela possess a wide variety of skin colours, body types, and facial features. Generally speaking, Haela’ skin colour assumes a darker hue - resembling their close ancestors. At the same time, bone structure, hair colour and texture, eye colour, and a host of facial and bodily phenotype characteristics vary immensely from one locale to another. Cheekbones may be high or broad, noses aquiline or flat, and lips full or thin; eyes range wildly in hue, some deep set in their sockets, and others with full epicanthic folds. Appearance is hardly random, of course, and familial, tribal, or national commonalities often allow the knowledgeable to identify a Haelas place of origin on sight, or at least to hazard a good guess. Their origins are also indicated through their traditional styles of bodily decoration, not only in the clothing or jewellery worn, but also in elaborate hairstyles, piercing, tattooing, and even scarification. Most Haela were born away from the south - travelling with Dilettantes and other nomadic tribes for the majority of their life.
