 Elves are some of the oldest known humanoid species in //Felwind's// history. Known as //Tel-Quessir// in the elven language this species of magic attuned people have as much variety in their biology as colours of the rainbow. \\
-Like Humans, Elves biology is very malleable and flexible tough rather than the spawn adapt to the parents. Elves adapt naturally (Or Un-Naturally) based on their environment.

-**Common Trait.**  \\
+**The Community of Elves**  \\
+Elven people tend to stick to their communities. Like magnets Elves like to stick together or at least stay as a group, their morals and personality tend to alienate them from other races and a sense of superiority is rather common among their culture.
+Elves that do seperate from a community are often solo for life, Elves that leave home are often doing it for a major reason such as a clash of ideals or culture.
+Some Elven Communities are far more welcoming than others

+Elves in Felwind tend to fall into a few common but varied categories. Some become teachers of the Arcane arts or scholars, in an effort to research and further Arcane knowledge for themselves or the greater populous. Most tend to be rather loyal to those they form bonds with at a young age. \\ Others take up a more active life as rangers, protectors or lawful mercenary groups for the oppressed or defenceless. quite a large number of elves live and protect the nation of //Greyhawk// its people and its forests. \\ Its common that most elves in Felwind are rather xenophobic or just generally untrusting of adventurers. Most adventuring elves are treated rather badly due to their tendency to indirectly or directly harm those that are supposed to be comrades. \\ Not all elves are like this though...i hope.

The hand was forced and Oxtrad invaded the Underdark, Committing to the death of over half the population of Drow at the time, They plundered thier capital and ransacked its artifacts, Leaving the Drow Queen dead and its capital in ruins. almost all known entrances to the Underdark were sealed in Mor-Thir after that invasion and Drow raids all by ceased. \\ Today Drow raids are aboust as common as a hurricane, Once or twice a year. \\
+Most Drow are still looked at with caution but with the // Outlawed Races// in Mor-Thir, Over world Drow don't cop nearly as much abuse as they once would.

 ===== Wood Elf=====
 {{ :culture:wood_elf.jpg?200 |}}
+Wood Elves are well known for being a danger to anything that's not the forest, a dwelling creature or another elf. Anything else is often seen as a threat and is dealt with in kind. If not for Drow, Wood-elves would be seen as the most violet of Elven kind. At least this is true for outsider interactions. Within their tree bound villages, Wood-Elves are known to be very mild and kind. Singing and Dancing as if it was a fairy tale. The way that they can so quickly change their attitude is a marvel to other species. \\
+There are many large villages of Wood-Elves around Felwind. Always found deep in thick forests or similar areas where nature has rained supreme. \\ There is a widely known unspoken war between wood elves and Drow. Wood-Elves tend to intercept Drow raids and spare none. //Folklora// are treated as royalty by the Wood-Elves, Though their interactions are low, Elven scripture and art depicts //Folklora// being very will respected. \\ Often found to be expert hunters & Archers they only really leave their villages to seek out revenge for a burned down forest, or the odd one who is curious of the outside world.

 ===== High Elf =====
 {{ :culture:high_elf.png?220 |}}
+The High-Elves of Felwind are known to be more extream versions of their regular kin. More natural mastery over the Arcane, Longer lived and can either be even more loyal and noble or even more xenophobic and stuck up than their other kin. They are typically the tallest of elven kin and although not all high-elves share this trait, their fair features have been exaugurated so much their bodies and faces are far more elongated to the point of looking uncanny or alien in nature. \\
+There is still a deep rooted tradition for Pure-Bread high elves. Many High-elves seen in Felwind are often of a long heritage of pure family. Its very rare to see a High-Elf that isn't in some sort of high ranking position in society, As advisors to royalty or scholars for nobles. Strong mages for Generals or even in some level of nobility themselves. With all that said a High-elf as an adventure or soldier is almost unheard of and will be looked down upon by other high-elves. But Desperation can cause even the most snobby people to pick up a blade.

+Elves of far off worlds or realms. A relatively new species of Elven kin that has yet had a recorded sighting in Felwind. \\ Said to be travelers from other worlds or mutant elven kind. An Astral elf found in Felwind would be a big deal. Other realms would be dependent on situation. \\
