Elf-Fey
From Caeladonia, Bastion, Various Locations, Mature at 30, Life Expectancy 200
Tall with thin, elegant features and pointed ears, the elves are one of the most common races in the world. Their blood links back to the original Ancient Elves who, with the Dragons that the fought against, were one of the first two races to exist on Abilor.
Created on their home of the Eridium Spires, while the realm of Terra was created below them. In the belief that the world below was created for them, they started colonizing the world and using the vast magical stores of energy in the Eridium of their home to terraform the world and create all the natural species.
They first created the Dwarves to work the land; basing them off of their own image but in a way that would allow them to preserve their own vanity, they gave them physical traits that were the opposite of what they viewed as ideal.
The quickly found themselves in conflict with the massive Ancient Dragons who also wished to spread across the world, creating the various monsters of the world for that purpose. The Elves combated the Dragons for supremacy of the world, using their ingenuity to develop weapons, copy the magical powers of the Dragons, and creating The Feywild as an emergency fallback location that would also allow them to strike at the heart of draconic territory without having to physically pass through it. Eventually, they won out and drove the ancient dragons into hiding and near extinction.
They took control of and colonized all of Abilor along with the dragons former home of the Obsidian Brink. Their empire was established stretching along the entire world of Terra and beyond, but their empire would not last for long before they were embroiled in The Ancient Elven Civil War between brothers Eradin and Bhato Va'Losh, ending in the awakening of Balimor.
After their civilization collapsed, some elves adapted to the Deridah, some isolated themselves from the magics of the world becoming the first Humans, while others were able to ride out the spread that stayed very close in physiology to their ancestors becoming the modern Fey Elf
