Tall and lithe, Elves are by far possibly the most beautiful race known to Realm, and also the most civilized, or at least thats how they think of themselves.  Other races beg to differ, especially the Elves long standing enemies the Humans, who have, time and again, been enslaved by the Elves.
The elven empire stretches across half of Realm and the capital city is Karnish which lies on the Norinthern side of  the Kuso mainland.  The current emperor is a young man named Key'Ann, who is well on his way to his third centennial birthday.
 
    The Elves are not one good terms with Humans, they never were, many a Human remembers well when the Elves raided their lands and enslaved their children.  But of late there has been an uneasy truce, and the air between the kingdoms of the Humans and the empire of the Elven kind is filled with tension, there are rumors that Key'Ann wants to get a messenger secretly to King Dankiran of Kandirk, but the Queen (Highest ranking priestess of Peyitin.) Kira'Na would like nothing more then to go back to war with the Humans.  Currently there is much political unrest within the Elven empire, and roving bands sympathetic to both sides roam the country side  looking for fight.  Its not a good time to take a holiday in the Elven empire.
 
    Kira'Na, the current Queen of the priestess hood of Peyitin is secretly buying up as much political support as possible, and anyone who defies her is. . .made less obtrusive.
Since she can't wrap Key'Ann around her finger like she did his father she opts for his elimination.

Nickname: Fop's

Character creation: Elves make excellent Archers, and they prefer nature magick above all the others, some Elves can be cold blooded to the core while others, though sharing the same views, absolutely faint at the site of a paper cut.  Most Elves find anything that is not Elven "Distasteful" at best, they all have exquisite manners though, so maybe you wont know until its too late that you been insulted.

Appearance: All Elves are 6-7 feet tall at full height, their eyes are slightly slanted but very large and they have long pointed ears that fan out from the face (they don't go straight up like a vulcan thank you so much), eye and hair color may vary, be creative!  There are so many colors in the rainbow.

Starting Stats: Elves start with a 3 in Willpower and Ability Points, they get 15 freebie points to use.

Life span: 1,500-2,000

Weakness: Elves have a forest affinity, when they are away for too long they begin to feel profound feelings of homesickness, a player, after spending more days away from the forest then he has points in Willpower must make a willpower roll difficulty 6+ everyday after allotted time.  Once the difficulty reaches Ten it can go no higher but the feelings become more urgent and the cool shade of the forest clouds the Elf's mind and fills his thoughts with mossy green floors and large immortal oaks, a botch will cause the Elf in question to loose his sanity until he is brought to the forest of his homeland, then he must rest for as many days as he was away from a forest.
