Physical Description
Short and slim, standing about 4-1/2 to 6 feet tall and typically weighing 95 to 135lbs (elven men weighing slightly more than the women). They are graceful but frail. They tend to be pale skinned and dark-haired, with deep green eyes. Elves have no facial or body hair. They prefer simple, comfortable clothes, especially in pastel blues and greens, and enjoy simple yet elegant jewelry. Elves posses unearthly grace and fine features. Many humans and members of other races find them hauntingly beautiful. An elf reaches adulthood at about 110 years of age and can live to be 1000 years old.
Personality
Elves are more often amused than excited, and more likely to be curious than greeedy. With such a long lifespan, they tend to keep a broad perspective on events, remaining aloof and unfazed by petty happenings. When pursuing a goal, however, whether an adventurous mission or learning a new skill or art, they can be focused and relentless. They are slow to make friends and enemies and even slower to forget them. They reply to petty insults with disdain and to serious insults with vengence.
