Hello friends, I'm looking to make a subrace mod of Astral Elves to add to the game.
Id like to add at least three armors and weapons specially made for Astral Elves, and two helms. In the wiki they are described as hiding their faces so id like to have a design where the helms cover most of their faces similar to the ones shown below (but obviously not exact copies, please respect the artists original design! Also I added the original links to the artists)
Astral elves use starlight for weapons and to power their ships called 'spell jammers' so I would like to see some sort of star design incorporated in the armor and helmets. Id like the helms to cover the eyes at the very least but besides that, below is just examples I quite liked that I found online.

Here are some examples of armor I'd really like to see for Astral Elves. It should be light armor with ability to glow as its made of starlight.

For eyes, it is said that Astral elves gained starlike quality to their eyes, and in the wiki, it seem their sclera is black with bright iris's, so I was thinking something similar in color and look to Star Saphire's as shown below:

I was also wanting for their skins to have a sparkly quality to represent their consummation of divine and star energy...yes similar to the twilight vampires lmao (if its possible, if not, it isnt the biggest deal in regards to making this subrace mod)
As for stats, scripts, spells and buffs:
They have Darkvision and elven training, knowledge of astral realms, illithids, githyanki, and githzerai, so if its possible to tweak the script to allow tag responses for giths and illithids Id lik to see it. They are immortal in the same sense of Gith's as the astral plane lent a sense of divinity to them. Id like to see a 'spark of divine' buff thats permanent for them.
Astral elves do not sleep, they meditate the same way that high elves and wood elves do. Astral elves can teleport up to 30 ft (9.1 m) and their darkvision extends up to 60ft (18m).
Leaders of the Astral elves can summon solar dragons, so it would be neato if at level 8 and up, they have the ability to summon a dragon, big or small.
Astral Elves have an affinity to radiant energy, spells, due to being gifted divine energy by living so close to the Gods. They also worship the Seldarine Pantheleon.
For most scripts you could just use the 'high elf tag', as its the most similar to the race's script.
Id expect to see rather high wisdom and intelligence for this subrace, aswell as arcana and constitution, as they have done battle with githyanki and illithids and come out victors before.
Let me know if anyone is interested in taking on this mod project : )
