Because Satisiun was an Elvaan in XI.
... what? Were you expecting some deep, thought out answer on the positives of the Elezen race, and why it is superior to all the others? No, no. Not happening. Satisiun is an Elezen purely because of strict, sentimental attachment. He was an Elvaan in XI. He was an Elvaan-looking Daeva in Aion. I've had him, both as just a character played in a game, and an RP/writing character since 2003, and I'm simply too attached to either make something new in the appearance department, or change him to some other race.
(Although I've dabbled making a Snidely Whiplash-type evil twin with an anagram version of his name, but ... still Elezen.)
While on the subject of race voices, since that seems to be what some people are focusing on the last few posts ... to all the beta testers, who else nearly did a spittake when they were browsing voices for Lalafel males, and after going from whiny doughboy, to mirthful child, you suddenly got this deep, smooth baritone voice reserved for Elezen and Roegadyn?
I know I did. Spent the next 30 seconds just laughing.
(And for those non-beta folk curious about what I am babbling about ... Click. Specifically about the 2:50 mark.)

A friend to the end to depend on you can.
I walk through the sea, swim through the sands.
To the edges of the earth, to your rescue when you hurt,
Only thing I learnt is I'm not Superman.
