[Blue's] Elf Files

Introduction (08/06/10)

These are my Elf files. People have many wrong ideas about elves. I shall right them. Elves:

are not tiny
have nothing to do with Santa
do not wear jingle bells
are fairy-sized
are very beautiful
are the second-smartest creatures on Naiko (after dragons)

There. I have succeeded. I have righted the wrongs. Now you know the Truth about Elves.

A very common Elf tradition is Ear piercing.

The 3 Elf Lands

There are 3 elf lands:

The Elemental Elves
The Season Elves
The Nature Elves

The Season Elves' throne and whoever sits in it legally has the title of Sun. The Elemental Elves' is the same except they go by Stars, and the Nature Elves' go by Moon. ON THE NEXT FEW PAGES I WILL WRITE ABOUT THE DIFFERENT KINDS OF ELVES.
