The term 'Wells People' refers to the Eloi, a fictional species of humans who appear in the 1895 novel by H. G. Wells, The Time Machine. They are a peaceful, childlike race living in a utopian society, and are the descendants of the human race from the future. The Eloi are described as being small, frail, and timid, and they live in a seemingly perfect world with no need for work or struggle.
