Elf
Elves were formerly the most dominant species in The North and were the second most prevelant race on the continent before The Elven Genocide. The Elves in exile on the Southern Continent can be categorised into two primary Sects.
The Halenthans, servants of the God of Mortality Harlak, hold ambitions of uniting the two Elven Sects through the conquest of Lorintha. If they were to unite the Elves, their goal is to cross the sea and reclaim the Elven lands of old from the Human Usurpers. They have taken up residence on a chain of islands north of the southern continent and have been practicing Piracy against Human maritime trade since.
Variants: Corsairs, Cultists, Raiders, Sorcerers, Witches
The Lorinthans, followers of the Lady of Knowledge Lorinth, view their banishment south as ordained by the gods as punishment for their sins. After arriving on the Southern Continent, they established cities on a large Plateau and cut themselves off from the outside world. Lorinthan rangers intercepting the occasional Halenthan raiding party that attempts to intrude into their territory, allowing their scholars to pursue their work in peace.
Variants: Rangers, Scholars, Wizards
Additionally, in the far west of the North, the Elves of The Siar Conclave inhabit the Free City of Cymara and The Conclave (Building).

Interspecies Relations and Assumptions
Many Elves harbour prejudice against other species, viewing Elves as superior to their short lived counter parts. Humans are viewed with particular disdain, the memories of The Human Rebellion still fresh, and with Halenthans in particular believing that humans are rightfully servants of the Elven Race as ordained by the Gods.
