High Elf

The longest lived race by far, elves are believed to be descended from fae lords. This is incorrect. Elven histories go back further than most others, other than those kept in the Cloister of Ioun in Firion.  
- From the Notes of Lady Rhewa;
Dated the 15th of Stægmus, 128

Basic Information

Genetics and Reproduction

Elves do not breed often. Due to our long life span, we usually don't feel the need to procreate. It is fun though.

Growth Rate & Stages

High elves, like our wood elf and moon elf brothers, mature physically at the same rate as humans. However, due to our long lifespans, we view our children as adults after they have gone through the Drawing of the Veil.

Additional Information

Perception and Sensory Capabilities

High elves are capable of seeing in the dark up 60 feet, though are unable to see color in such conditions.

Civilization and Culture

Common Dress Code
