Elves

In ancient, mythical times, the elves had a heavenly war with their gods. They have since diverged into several distinct cultures.

High Elves
High elves are haughty and precious about their great achievements of the past. Though they are now independent again, there is a stain on their collective ego as they had capitulated to the Heimsveld Empire and a great many daughters were taken for trophy wives.

Sea Elves
Though similar to High elves physically and in attitude, Sea elves have a distinctive culture. They are militaristic raiders who pride themselves on their outdated fleets of galleys.

Wood Elves
Wood elves are isolationists who tend only to leave the eletfa rootweald to scout, spy and assassinate fey beings. They all have live plants threaded into their skin, which gives them a tattooed appearance and protects them from the depredations of some rootweald plantlife.

Dark Elves
Only very rarely and accidentally encountered. Dark elves are zealots who still follow their ancient dead gods in hidden places and other planes. They are extremely long-lived, depressive and make high elves seem humble.
