Euripis

Euripis is a society of ukoven, or half-elementals. Like the lesser genies of other planes, the half-elementals of Euripis have abilities and powers that give them an edge over the other races of Athas. These abilities, however, can only be used if the ukoven maintain contact with the element that sustains them. In addition, if they range far from their island home, the ukoven slowly die. If any ukoven fails to return to the elemental springs of Euripis after more than ten days, he or she risks death and the permanent loss of his abilities.

The inhabitants of Euripis are philosophers and artisans. They welcome friendly visitors who truly want to admire the half-elementals' work or learn whatever knowledge they feel like teaching at the time. They aren't a violent people, but will use their powers to defend themselves against attacks. Currently, the half-elementals are establishing peaceful relations with their neighbors to the north.
