-Drow are the Elven people who have called the //Underdark// their home for tends of thousands of years. By far the most aggressive of all Elven people In Felwind and the reals around. They are ruthless hunters and slavers of overworld species. You often hear stories of Drow raids on settlements as they pillage supplies and people. \\
+Drow are the Elven people who have called the [[planes:Underdark]] their home for tens of thousands of years. By far the most aggressive of all Elven people In //Felwind// and the realms around. They were ruthless hunters and slavers of overworld species until the great war with [[faction:Oxtrad]] in the year 8490. You still hear tales of Drow raids on settlements as they pillage supplies and people, however true or fantasy they are today. \\
 All Drow are tied to the Goddess //Loth// Also known as the Spider Queen. \\
-The land of // Mor-Thir// was plagued by Drow raids during the years 9000~. The Northern lands of //Oxtrad// being the most to suffer. 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.

 ===== High Elf =====
 {{ :culture:high_elf.png?220 |}}
-The High-Elves of Felwind are known to be more extreme 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. With celestial heritage 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. History says they first came about when the Gods of [[planes:Celestia]] created them for the humble task of tending their vast glorias libraries, This has long fallen out of favour due to the [[location:fate_weave|Fate's Weave]] taking that jurisdiction of stored knowledge and High-Elves were cast to the mortal plane. Only a few remain in Celestia as personal servants to high ranking celestinas. \\

 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.

-===== Astral Elf =====
+===== Half-Elf =====
 {{ :wiki:media:template.png?100 |}}
-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. \\
+The Half-Breed of Elven and Human blood. Very common in //Felwind// due to the high number of Human/Elf couples weather from one night stands or long lasting marriages, Half-Elves can be found all over the world. They often share none of an Elf's typical xenophobic nature due to their heritage. It would be rather hypocritical if they did. The qualities and sturdiness of human with innate magical abilities make them rather well versed for a life of adventure and travel. Commonly known as 'The Mule of the Adventuring world'. \\ its almost one's best life to be born a Half-Elf and you will very rarely find one that has had a hard life because of it. If one sad factor is that Half-Elves typically do not share the longevity of a full blood elf, Although it has been recorded it is the exception. most Half-Elves will pass before their elven parent and such an event is typically the emotional death of the parent. a factor not many think about until they experience it first hand.

-===== Drider =====
+===== TEXT =====
-Drider are a rare type of Drow. Normally as a punishment the //Spider Queen// Will curse an unfavourable Drow to become a Drider. Their lower half/legs are transformed into that of an arachnid such as a Spider or Scorpion. A very monstrous and painful transformation. \\
-For male Drow, Becoming a Drider is all but total exile. Male Driders are shunned and shamed by other Drow, Even other Male Drider tend to not interact with each other, As all know to take the Queen's curse is to remain alone forever. \\
-This leads to Male Drider being rather friendly to other species of the Underdark, and more notable, Travlers to the Underdark. A Male Drider in the Underdark while is normally in a sad state will often be overjoyed to meet creatures that are not out to hurt or harm. and will offer guidance if however temporary trough the upper levels of the //Underdark// \\
-Female Drider on the other hand can go a entirely different direction. Like Male Drider's most Feale Driders are also doomed to a life of isolation from their people but rarely Female Driders become a being of worship.
