Elf

Elves are a humanoid race common throughout Vedar. Elves are generally recognized as one of the Major Races, and play an important role in world history. Elves are one of the longest-lived species in Vedar, with some Elves reaching up to almost 1,000 years old.

Modern elves are descended from the Elders, who claimed dominion over the entirety of the Known World for thousands of years. In the modern day, elves are spread across Vedar in numerous nations and settlements, with a variety of different cultures, traditions and philosophies.

In the Aurelian Empire, Elves are normally divided into three nations: High Elves, Wood Elves, and the Drow. This, however, is a very simplistic viewpoint - those deemed to be wood elves may live in cities and 'high elves' could live in forests. Two different high elf towns may see themselves as allies, rivals or even enemies, with completely different cultures and views.
