HighElf
Elf, noun. A word defining a group of races that generally have above average intelligence and agility, but are known for aloofness and isolation. High Elf, noun. A word defining a particular race of elves that practically defines the elven group of races as a whole. Racial Tensions and OpinionsMountain ElvesMountain Elves and High Elves have an almost hatred for each other stemming back thousands of years. Even though each race lives in the other's lands, High Elves (in general) would trust a random human being more than a random Mountain Elf. However, specific exemptions abound in society and the conflict between the two races is generally overstated. Silver ElvesIf there was a race of elves to be trusted outside of a High Elf, this would be it. High Elves and Silver Elves share some common lands to the south and generally get along with each other. Standard High Elven aloofness tends to put off an average Silver Elf, but in general things work. Half ElvesIf a half elf is to be present in front of a High Elf, the other half better be elf too. Mixed race Elves are typically treated the same as their non-High half, but half-humans are ignored at best and treated as hunting targets at worst. Other ElvesHigh Elves trust races of elves generally the same (exceptions above) as a beneficial outsider race. That is to say that they will acknowledge their presence, talk to them, but want them to leave their sight. High Elven Adventurers, on the other hand, tend toward working well with elves of all races (including the above) due to their common heritage and background. ImpsHigh Elves dislike Imps. They are beneath them. Even High Elven Adventurers tend to agree. SpritesHigh Elves view sprites as they would children. They have a generally positive viewpoint of them, but do not trust them due to their childish ways. All Other RacesHigh Elves regard other races as inferior. Not an active dislike, just that they aren't elves. Specific exceptions to the rule will abound, however, and High Elven Adventurers typically do not hold a similar perspective. StereotypesPositiveHigh Elves are incredible mages and archers, among the best that have ever lived. A single track of thought for a High Elf encompasses more than that of the entire contents of another person's brain, and a High Elf can think their way out of any situation. They tend to be full of curiosity and wonder the moment they leave home and are very devoted to their duties. NegativeHigh Elves give a bad name for the rest of elvenkind. Their anti-social tendencies tend toward the sociopathic, they hate practically anyone who isn't a full blooded High Elf, and they regard others with annoyance at best. They're magical murderers who will stop at nothing to get their way, and most have absolutely no knowledge of the real world outside their Guilded Trees. Average members of the raceRandom PersonAn average High Elf is typically trained in limited ways of warfare (typically with a bow) and demonstrates superior intelligence and above average agility (or the opposite, depending on their family lines and history). However, they also demonstrate a lack of social skills and their other physical abilities suffer. Anime RPG 3.X
