Arvairians are most often typified by their obvious elven influences and their preference for building large, high-walled cities featuring tall towers and multi-storied homes. Arvairian architecture incorporates both stone and wood, and tends to be an eye-pleasing mixture of practicality and grace. The cities of Daemedra, Kin Sedra, Kin Kyn, and Tintrical are fantastic examples of this style.

Arvairian fashions range widely based on class and geography. In Varrus and Verdan, cotton is the dominant material, followed by wool and linen. Common folk tend to wear simple breeches, dresses, shirts, or tunics. Cloaks are common and footwear usually includes leather boots or lace-less shoes in the country and leather-soled cloth footwear of lighter designs in cities. Among the upper classes, it is popular to wear elven styles (well-fitted and thin cotton, linen, leather, or silk in satin or pastel tones) accented with decorative armor pieces.
