ELF ELVES
Elves are one of the most ancient races of the realms, their ancestry
reaching far back into the early first age. Elves excel at arts and
crafts, producing the finest literature works and most well-known songs
known to Serin. They also are accomplished practitioners of magic, able
to learn arts of divine healing as well as those of witchcraft and
deception. They are very quick and light on their feet, able to enter
and leave places without being seen, and can see well even in darkness.
Because of their long lifespans, elves appear in a state of perpetual
youth, aging only very gradually, and are renowned for their beauty.
The elven race is very orderly and seeks to promote the harmony of
all living creatures. Elves and humans often join together to fight
for the same cause in times of war, though they tend to look down
upon their brothers in battle for their rashness. Wisdom garnered
through centuries of culture has given elves a unique intrinsic view
of the world, and they possess great intuition for the kinds of acts
that may lead to war. It is peace that an elf lives for, war being
the means to attain it, and they will settle by some other means if
the opportunity arises, usually the due process of the Law of men.
During the Great War, the elves were forced into a retreat from their
former home into the valleys of the north, by the invading armies of
orcs, and their beautiful homeland was ransacked. Though they have
rebuilt it again, the scars left by the orc forces, and later by the
attacking Legion, have left a mark in their history. Elves are known for
their chivalry and honour, and are always willing to fight for others
when their is a good cause. Despite their peace-loving nature, many
elves are prideful, making them quick to anger when taunted.
