Myriden Race - Elf

Elves
There are two types of elves common to the Southern Reaches. The wood elves, native to the Ravenwood, and the high elves, recently returned from the Feywild.

Wild Elves
Wild and free, these elves guard their forested lands using stealth and deadly arrows from the trees. They build their homes in close harmony with the forest, so perfectly joined that travelers often fail to notice that they have entered an elven community until it is too late.

High Elves
Referred to as high elves, grey elves, eladrin, or elves of the moon, the high elves are creatures of magic with strong ties to the Feywild. Their twilight cities cross in and out of our world, appearing and disappearing every 500 years. Those who leave the isolation of their cities do so because they see themselves as guardians and architects of civilization. It is only in the past five years that they have returned to the world, only to find some of the glades and valleys which held their cities destroyed by Skyfall.

Dark Elves
Not available as a player race

Svartálfar…drow… moriquendi…there are many terms for these elves. Legends of these creatures vary, but common to them all is that a faction of elves chose to follow (or were seduced by) the dark goddess Lloth. This faction sought to subjugate all of the Feywild, but were thwarted and thrown back to the depths of the earth. There, it is said, that they created strongholds of dark beauty, and mastered arts of vicissitude. These dark magicks have allowed the dark elves to alter themselves, either enhancing their natural beauty to unearthly levels, or merging their forms with other creatures…or in some cases, both.
