Elves
Elves are apart of the four major species that inhabit the continent of Archtun. They reside within the eastern portion known as Evermist.
Basic Information
Anatomy
Similar to that of a human, elves are biped creatures that have two arms, and two legs. They stand at a taller height than most humans, with their average height standing at 6'3. They have skinny frames, yet are incredibly lean and toned with their muscle. Elves have a higher than average metabolism, thus it is harder for them to gain fat. They are very flexible, and their joints stand lose, easily allowing movement that would normally be impossible for the average human. Elves also have pointed ears, marking their early ancestry, although sharpness of the ears varies per ethnicity of elf.
Growth Rate & Stages
Living for at least a thousand years, elves grow much slower than humans. Their childhood usually lasts for upwards to a hundred years, before transferring to teenagers. Adulthood is finally reached at around three hundred years of age, before they reach their final height and growth. They begin to slightly shrink at about eight hundred years of age, although this is uncommon with certain types of elves.
Ecology and Habitats
All elves prefer different habitats and environments, with Wood Elves preferring the deep jungle, the High Elves prefer high ground and serine lakes, the Earth Elves preferring the ground, and so on. Elves usually tend to build homes within their natural environment, and make great use of the land and tend it with care and respect.
Dietary Needs and Habits
Eating almost a strictly vegetarian diet, elves typically do not eat meat, and find food within their environment, such as fruits and vegetables. They are also known to make delicious bread, and other dishes that are vegetarian.
Additional Information
Perception and Sensory Capabilities
Elves are very susceptible to magic, and can easily learn two types of magic, while a human typically can only master one type of magic. Their magic is usually stronger than that of any other species as well. They are known to cast faster, stronger, and more durable and lasting spells than that of any other race.
