 +
 +====== Histoire ======
 +The elans represent a dark side of the process of [[inspire|Inspiration]] that allows a [[Quorien]] to posses a willing [[inspire|empty vessel]].
 +
 +Elans contain the [[Quorien]] spirit, condemned to reside powerless within a [[Humain]] form by its kin for crimes against the [[Quorien]]. This process is not voluntary, and it often ends with the vessel eventually falling to madness over its long life.
 +
 +====== Appearance & Personality ======
 +The elans resemble the [[inspire|Humain vessels]] from whom they are derived, and retain much of the variety in personalities and appearance of their [[Humain]] forebears. Elans often go mad, and some believe they hear the voices of the [[quorien|spirit]] trapped within them.
 +
 +As with all residents of [[Riedra]], Elans are indoctrinated into the [[Chemin de l'Inspiration]] and believe their noble actions can redemn the evil spirits bound within them. Most elans in [[Riedra]] join the [[Harmonious Shield]], and many belong to the [[Edgewalkers]].
 +
 +A few elan have been known to reject the [[Chemin de l'Inspiration]], and flee to other parts of [[Sarlona]] to make their own path.
 +
 +====== Capacités ======
 +Elan can potentially live for many centuries.
 +
 +Elans are naturally [[Psioniques|psionic]] [[Aberrations]], and have several supernatural abilities stemming from their nature. They do not sleep, instead //trancing// for 4 hours each night to replenish their psionic powers. They can temporarily protect themselves from harm, or reduce the damage of an attack.
 +
 +An elan can sustain itself purely on its own psionic power, and would not need to eat for a day after it uses this power.
 +
 +====== Society ======
 +Elans are often integrated into the surrounding [[Humain]] society.
 +
 +Elans loyal to the [[Chemin de l'Inspiration]] remain in [[Riedra]], where they join the [[Harmonious Shield]] and the [[Edgewalkers]]. Those who learn the truth or reject their lot in life have been known to flee to [[Adar]], where they are treated with suspicion but may prove to be powerful opponents to the might of [[Riedra]]. 
 +
 +====== Lands ======
 +Elans hold no land, but primarily reside in [[Riedra]]. Besides [[Riedra]], Elans have been known to flee to the continents of [[Khorvaire]], [[Xen'drik]], or [[Argonnessen]] as well as to [[Adar]].
 +
 +====== Notable Personalities ======
 +  * **Murephan, Summit Road Guide:** Murephan is formerly one of the [[The Inspiré|Chosen]] of [[Riedra]], and now an amnesiac elan [[Ranger]]/[[Psion]] who abandoned the [[Chemin de l'Inspiration]] for [[Adar]]. Along with his [[Dromite]] sidekick Kelki, Murephan travels [[Syrkarn]] where he works against the hated [[Inspiré]] and to begrudgingly aid travelers.
