-===== Elysians ===== 
  
-{{ :​image:​commonality:​elysians_walking_e1.jpg?​300|}}Elysians are humanoids, distinguished by their pointed or webbed ear-tips, unblemished skin and psionically active features. Although most Elysians have similar variation in skin colour to humans, some have a pale and washed out tone (This look can be accomplished with foundation or makeup). Their skin also appears to be partially translucent,​ and dark veins can be seen running close to the surface. Elysians are thought to have plant-like elements in their genetic structure, and have some ability to derive nutrients directly from their environment. 
- 
-Many Elysians possess psionic abilities, which express themselves physically – more powerfully psionic Elysians tend to acquire markings on their bodies or hair that glow in a psionically active area, and may be visible the rest of the time. Often this effect occurs in the iris of the eye, or on tattoo-like markings on the skin (which are said to be shaped by the psyche of each individual Elysian). This effect can be achieved with UV-reactive contact lenses or makeup. 
- 
-Elysian names are composed of an individual name and a family name. Both names tend to be vowel heavy, especially using a lot of "​a",​ "​ae",​ "​o"​ and "​u"​ sounds, and avoiding harsh-sounding consonants. Their names often have a flowing quality, and may reference philosophical or stellar phenomena, some examples being Lanthur, Iesmenae, Asdus, Nebala or Aster.

-==== Advantages ==== 
- 
-Elysians are the Dominant Species of the Commonality. They may purchase Commonality Status for 2 character points per rank.  
- 
-Elysians have 1 locational hit and a Death Count of 200 seconds. All Elysians are [[psionics skills|Psions]],​ and have 2 [[psionics skills#psi points]]. Elysians also have access to the greatest variety of psionic abilities in all of known space, and may purchase powers from the [[elysian_psionic_paths#​Coercion]],​ [[elysian_psionic_paths#​Psionic Resonance]] and [[elysian_psionic_paths#​Psychosomatics]] Root Paths, as well as any Branch paths that derive from them. 
- 
-Elysians are able to use their network of psionically engineered [[nexus tree|Nexus Trees]] to open stable wormholes across vast distances. These portals can only be used by Elysians and other species who have been psionically altered in specific ways.
