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
alright that makes sense, thanks
also, i did not know elves could teleport
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
are those things that every player who gets the respective subrace gain automatically?
in pathfinder a heritage (subrace) will give you everything at first level, and any other ability will be chosen later.
for example a tunnelflood kobold will give you 15ft swim speed, and anything else from the ancestry (race) will come from feats instead of automatically gained
