Vili

The Vili are a playable race in OtherSelf Online.

History
Eons ago, Ivaldi, the God of Destruction was slain by his rival Surtr, the God of Creation, after a fierce battle. Purified by the holy flames of Surtr's lance, Ivaldi's body gave birth to smaller versions of him, each slightly different in appearance from one another.

Surtr called this new life "Vili, Children of Ivaldi". Seeing them as yet another threat to life in Laevateinn, he created the Frey to keep them controlled. However, seeing how they loved life in their world, he decided that they were not a threat any longer and ordered the Frey to share their knowledge with them, and guide them as their new life unfolded.

Appearance
The Vili are tall, pale human-like beings with delicate features and a thin build. They mostly sport brightly colored hair and eyes, with the most common colors being blue, green and purple.

Some of them have long, pointed ears, further showing their resemblance to Ivaldi. They also have a blue rune, symbolizing their affinity the Ice element, drawn over their chest.

Gameplay
Being related to Ivaldi, they share his affinity with Ice, gaining the passive skill Frozen Birthright. This enhances the power of Ice-based skills and items by 10%, while reducing all Ice-based damaged by 25%.

They can also take the shorter path during the quest To Kill a Hummingbird, thanks to their rune reacting to Ivaldi's Lock.
