This is a site for discussing roleplaying games. Have fun doing so, but there is one major rule: do not discuss political issues that aren't directly and uniquely related to the subject of the thread and about gaming. While this site is dedicated to free speech, the following will not be tolerated: devolving a thread into unrelated political discussion, sockpuppeting (using multiple and/or bogus accounts), disrupting topics without contributing to them, and posting images that could get someone fired in the workplace (an external link is OK, but clearly mark it as Not Safe For Work, or NSFW). If you receive a warning, please take it seriously and either move on to another topic or steer the discussion back to its original RPG-related theme.

Elves, Elves & more Elves

High Elves: Live in Underhill, Pale skinned, blueish white hair, snob, really good at magic.

Silvan Elves: Live in the forests, their skin takes the color of the bark of the more prevalent trees around them, greenish brown hair, good at magic and bows, talk to animals and plants.

Dark Elves: Live in deep caverns, white skin and white hair, evil, their Queen wanted more power and married the God of the Underworld Veles, good at dark magic, the more powerful among them can command the creatures of the underworld.

Any more?

Here is why this forum tends to be so stupid. Many people here think Joe Biden is "The Left", when he is actually Far Right and every US republican is just an idiot.

Or as 4E put it, eladrin, elves, and drow. :) Everything else is mostly variations or other changes rung on the Eldar, Avari, and svartalfar. :)

Except the drow make zero sense, dark skin among beings living in caverns?

There's your run of the mill vanilla elves, and then there's delicious chocolate elves. But what you never see are strawberry elves. Why is that?

There'd be a lot less Elves if I had anything to say about it.

Demands vastly exceeds supply.  Mainly because of the way people underestimate the expected demand for the strawberry elves.

Wee Folk:  AKA, the house elves, gnomes, halflings, leprechauns, kobolds, etc. that come in a plethora of varieties, with no rhyme or reason to them, except that they are typically small, very good at remaining unseen, and accordingly have managed to stay in the midst of humans.

My personal fanon is that Morgoth captured, corrupted, or killed off all the red headed ones.

That's just one for one copy of D&D

Let's keep the Kelpies as Kelpies, seahorses that can take either human form or a weirdly formed horse form, eat human flesh and smell of brine.

Aren't halflings too big for that? I would make the wee folk 2 feet tall tops.
