Aelfants are the unfortunate outcome of a tryst betwixt Pyxie and pachyderm. It is a little known fact that Pyxies, when intoxicated on fermented Fefferberry wine, will begin to shapeshift and become quite randy. They are responsible for most of the legends of halfbreeds and man-monsters that have come down to us from long ago. Alas, as the Aelfants' time has passed and their numbers have grown ever smaller, the few remaining Aelfants have retreated further and further west into the protective shadow of the two great Alezanian spires. They have fled the inhabited Evesque Valley never to be seen again.

Citations: Fefferberry, Pyxie.
