Delaren are shapeshifting humanoids with crystalline strands instead of hair. These crystals contain significant amounts of essence which can be used by the delaren, but doing so permanently drains away part of their life force and will turn the crystals gray.[1] They also had the ability to reconstruct their bodies, but with a catch - once they added someting to their bodies they couldn't get rid of it. Because of this, they were described in legend as "only growing larger over time". One Delaren king had a layer of bony armor and tremendous wings.[2]
