Half Elf

Children of a union between Elves  and Humans , half-elves are forced to live between two worlds. They live longer than their human relatives, but not nearly as long as their elf relatives, and consequently are peerless no matter which parent's society they remain in. While not particularly shunned by either culture, half-elves still struggle to find their place in the world.

Additional Information

Perception and Sensory Capabilities

Half-elves inherit their magical capabilities and darkvision from their elven heritage. While they do not inherently know certain spells as elves do, many half-elves find it easy to pick up magic, and most can cast at least a few simple cantrips.

Naming Traditions

Half-elves commonly are given names customary to whichever society they live in, meaning that those raised among elves are given elvish names while those raised among humans are given human names.

Culture and Cultural Heritage

Half-elves have no culture of their own. Rather, each individual identifies with the culture they were raised in.

Interspecies Relations and Assumptions

Having a foot in each of two worlds, half-elves make excellent diplomats.
