Who Have All the Best Mysteries

CG; CR 5 ‡

Yamah are butterfly eladrin known for their grace, beauty, and fierce resistance to misuse of magic. They appear as radiant, fairy-like cutters with flowing hair and vibrant wings that shimmer with the colours of dawn. Their blue skin is covered with sparkling white sigils, which flare brightly when they cast spells. Yamahs bridge the realms of artistry, religion, and divine warfare. Revered by mystery cults and secretive religious orders, yamahs are sacred intermediaries between mortals and divine mysteries. They often serve as muses to bards, inspiring devotion through music, poetry, and visions of celestial beauty.

Their presence on the Prime is tied to rituals of purification and transcendence, where initiates seek spiritual enlightenment through symbolic acts. However, yamahs are far more than passive figures of inspiration—they actively seek out wicked magic, absorbing its corrupt essence into themselves before redirecting it back at its source in devastating bursts of force. This unique ability makes them feared by necromancers and witches, especially in numbers. Yamah also enjoy secretly following interlopers in Arborea, ruining their protective magics from the shadows.

Though they prefer subtlety and artful persuasion over brute force, yamahs are fierce combatants when called to battle. In celestial armies, yamah azatas are invaluable assets against fiends, hags and other forces of darkness. Their ability to neutralise harmful magic allows them to disrupt enemy spellcasters while bolstering their allies with protective cover.
