Elf



Elves are tall, long eared and long lived. Elves vary widely in skin tone and hair colour, but most often they are shades of off-white or grey. Their eye colour also spans a wide spectrum. The skin of an elf is often described as similar to the colours of the clouds, while their eyes are more similar to the skies. Elven society is cult based, they are obsessed with the afterlife and the demonic. To an elf, the matters of the short-lived races are inconsequential. Elves are found in the deepest bog and marshes, and the darkest forests and valleys. They reside upon the edges of the world, concerned with their own culture and little else. While elves are long lived, they understand they are not immortal, not on this plane of existence. In death, however, there is endlessness. Elves spend their lives preparing for death, and they also spend their lives communing with the dead. Elves are aware of the realms of spirits and demons, and in fact long to achieve a place their themselves. Elves regularly summon demons and make pacts with devils. To an elf, ascension into the ranks of the higher powers of hell is the prime focus of life. Elven societies are based around these beliefs and practices. Elven cultures stem from their cults, and often the lord or leader of an elven society is also its cult master and grand magus. While elves do not see themselves as evil, their hidden nature, and tendency to disregard the pains and plight of the short lived races as unimportant, places them as a prime example of evil to the other races. Elves have a great tendency to dismiss and disrespect other races, and in turn are treated the same. Half-elves are an abomination to Elven society and likewise are usually seen as evil and unnatural by humankind. It is unlikely to see a half-elf warmly regarded within either races circle.
