Though basically similar to Humans in many ways, Elves have several important, if subtle, differences. Elves are more refined in appearance than Humans, having finer features and unmarred skin. Their long lifespan, of approximately 450 to 500 years, tends to give them a more unique perspective of the world, to be able to take a long view on plans. They often have no problem waiting decades for a plan to come to fruition.
Demeanor: Elves deeply respect nature and this shows in their outlook on the world around them.
Appearance: Elves are shorter than Humans, and more slender overall, though still muscular. Elves average 5’ tall, with females of the race ranging only a few inches shorter. All have very lithe forms with Elven males weighing around 140 pounds. They have upswept ears that top off in delicate points. Elves are unable to grow beards. Their skin color is usually a light brown, similar to that of an acorn, while their eyes are often some shade of grey, green, purple or amber.
Elves retain a youthful appearance until just before the end of their lives, aging dramatically over their last 5 years.
