====== Histoire ======
The [[Qabalrin]] [[Elfes]] were the first mortals to discover the great mysteries of necromancy. They are said to be responsible for the creation of the first [[vampires]].

Their [[Qalatesh|city-state]] was destroyed by a Géant [[fragments_de_dragon|Siberys dragonshard]] that fell from the sky more than forty-millennia ago. The resulting impact created the [[anneau_de_tempetes]]. The [[Elfes|Elfique]] city existed over a thousand miles southeast of what is modern-day [[cap-tempete]].

The Qabalrin were powerful conjurers and necromancers. The [[Géants]] believed that the Qabalrin's magic was evil, and derived from [[L'Ombre]] of their version of the Sovereign of Light and Law, [[Aureon|Ouralon]]. When their civilization was destroyed the [[Géants]] declared that [[Aureon|Ouralon]] was punishing the [[Elfes]] for deriving their magic from his [[l_ombre|Ombre]].

===== Legacy =====
The impact of the [[Heart of Siberys]] striking the land created the [[anneau_de_tempetes]] and dropped the ruins of the [[Qabalrin]] city-state into [[khyber_trefonds_obscurs|Khyber]].

The traditions of the [[Qabalrin]] are rumored to have Inspiré the {{tagpage>"Mabaran Necromancy"|dark}} practices of [[maison_vol|the line of Vol]], and the faith of [[le_sang_divin|The Le Sang Divin]] was first started in the island of [[Farlnen]] in the [[Principautés de Lhazaar]].

The ruins of the [[Qabalrin]] Elfes are now occupied by various [[Mort-vivant]] remnants of their people.

====== Notes ======
The fortress city of the [[Qabalrin]] is not named in any {{tagpage>"Eberron sourcebooks"|Eberron sourcebooks}}. The capital of the Perdu Elfique civilization of the [[anneau_de_tempetes]] is named Qalatesh in the [[Dragonshard|Dungeons & Dragons: Dragonshard]] real-time-strategy video game.
