Elves

Elves (, Erufu) are people that bear numerous similarities to humans, but with sharp elongated ears and long lifespans.

Overview
Elves come in variations, but overall they are noted for their otherworldly beauty and sharp elongated ears. Unlike most races, they hardly age and they can live for many thousands of years. For elves, having children is often only considered after centuries of marriage, likely due to their longevity. They have a distaste for fire that goes to the extent of them setting up wards to combat it. Their language is said to have the rhythm of a song or spell. There is an enmity between them and the dwarves that is said to be as old as the gods.

Elves do not eat meat out of a desire of balance. According to Forest Princess' husband, fruit ripens quicker compared to an animal and is more abundant. Additionally, the ecosystem would be threatened if they had to hunt for food.

High Elves
High Elves (, Hai erufu) are descendants of faeries that sport longer ears than other elves. High Elves make for a rare sight, as they don't often leave their forests; rarer still are ones that decide to become adventurers to sate their curiosity about the world.

Dark Elves
Dark Elves (, Dākuerufu) are deceptive descendants of their kind who pledge their loyalties to the Demon Lord. However, there are a handful who do not choose this path.
