In the Elfen race they were called Witches or Warlocks. No race since, has been so closely attuned to this power, as were the original three. "Other races used Eldritch differently.

Dwarves there are in that land, and they have long life and can coax precious metal and gems out of pure rock and shape them into precious treasure. Gnomes, too, can coax gems and precious metals and can infuse those treasures with power. Humans who have a spark of Eldritch become sorcerers. Though their magic is weak, they can call upon the power in other things to create spells, potions and the like. Other races use it in different ways, but all access Eldritch in one form or another.

I bring you the 'Thief of Roses'..."
