The War against the Drow continues

This countess didn’t appreciate me yeeting a psychic grenade at her before she could monologue. Her warriors preceded to cast Darkness on the bridge we were at and she teleported with three Shadow Demons before taking me to full health to 0 (Though I stayed up thanks to Gift of the Protectors).

But unfortunately, she could not shake the Synaptic Static debuff and didn’t really accomplish much after that before trying to run. If not for the fact Dimension Door has a size limit (Which I hadn’t realized until my DM remembered), I’d have teleported over the giant kobold Rune Knight, but settled for bringing the Rogue over to finish her

          Eladrin is a subrace of Elf that are more closely tied to the Feywilds, having a form for each season that they shift between based on emotional state and which effects their racial teleporting ability (Spring can teleport an ally instead, Summer deals fire damage to chosen targets on arrival, Autumn can charm up to two targets on arrival, and Winter can Frighten a target next to the point they are teleporting from)

          Synaptic Static is a Intelligence save spell that deals AoE psychic damage and on failure also inflicts a lingering debuff that subtracts 1d6 from the targets attack rolls, ability checks and concentration checks until they pass the save at the end of their turn.

          Dimension Door is a teleportation spell that can carry you and one willing creature of your size or smaller up to 500ft and doesn’t require line of sight

              Eladrin do, they have a racial ability called Fey Step which lets them use a bonus action to teleport up to 30ft (With the added options I mentioned earlier). The only other elf race that gets a natural teleport ability is the Shadar-Kai (Elves tied to the Shadowfell and the Raven Queen), who can teleport as a bonus action and at higher levels gain resistance to all damage for a short time after.

              Other Elven subraces don’t inherently have the ability to teleport but do have other abilities, usually some combination of Spellcasting, Weapon Proficiency or Supplemental Skills. The only other thing close to a racial teleport is High Elves can take a racial feat to get the Misty Step spell (Teleport 30ft) with one free cast per short/long rest
