The Royal Locks are a hereditary trait of the Royal House of Idris on Nalthis. [1]
Members of the Royal House can change their hair color or cause their hair to grow quickly at will. Normally the color of the Royal Locks reflects the person's emotional state by default but this can be controlled through training and discipline. The ability to grow hair at will takes effort and leads to hunger and exhaustion.[1]
Only members of the Royal House that are potential heirs to the throne have and can pass on the Royal Locks. [2]
Hair Color Indicators
