Elves of Amar

Elven culture began on the distant continent of Xen’drik. Tens of thousands of years ago, the elves rose up against the giants who ruled that land. Ultimately, the elves fled from Xen’drik and settled the Solufin Isles. There they split into two distinct cultures: the introspective Aereni and the warlike Valenari. While neither of these cultures have much interest in human activities, a small number of elves have immigrated to Amar over the years and have integrated with the cultures of the Five Dominions.   As a whole, elves are driven by tradition and respect for the past. Where humans value innovation, elves strive to perfect the techniques of their ancestors. With centuries to devote to their studies, the elves are masters of their chosen crafts; at the same time, their society has changed very little over the last five thousand years, while Amar is constantly evolving. As an elf, consider your relationship with the past. Do you value the traditions of your ancestors? Or do you fear that your people are too mired in the past, and need to find a way forward?   Elves are uncommon, and generally social outcasts and pariah's due to their role in the Black Crusade's. They are expected to always be subservient to humans. Elves are not allowed to hold high stations in life, and generally relegated to lives of service or slavery.
