Summary

The sun elves (also known as the Flametouched) are a subrace of elf native to Ibaya. They are typically dark-skinned, with hair which usually ranges from red to black, and tend to be more strongly built than other elves. They earned their name from their apparent resistance to fire damage; those who have seen the sun elves in action have witnessed lava-like patterns form on their skin when they are exposed to fire, which seems to grant them some degree of protection from the element. Due to their isolationism, little else is known about them.

Making a Sun Elf

You gain the following traits when choosing the sun elf subrace:

• Child of the Flame
  You have resistance to fire damage. In addition, when you take fire damage, you can store the energy as if using the absorb elements spell. The first time you hit with a melee attack after absorbing the energy, you deal an additional 1d6 fire damage. You can use this ability a number of times up to your CON modifier.
• Ability Score Increase
  Your Strength or Constitution score increases by 1. 
• Sun Elf Magic
  You know the produce flame cantrip. When you reach 3rd level, you can cast the burning hands spell once with this trait and regain the ability to do so when you finish a long rest. Constitution is your spellcasting ability for these spells.
• Sun Elf Weapon Training
  You have proficiency with the longsword, shortsword, shield, and longbow.
