Elves (called "Olve" or "Olvenfolk" in Flan) are a demihuman race that has inhabited the Flaeness for countless centuries, dating back to well before the fall of the Baklunish and Suloise empires. Diverse and populous, elves have survived incursions on their lands by humans and humanoids alike and are the dominant power in a number of different holdings on the continent, serving as a bulwark for civilization.
