Elven Factions - Lore Entry

Elves are one of the oldest races. While not as numerous as human they are also often would all over the world. They are slimmer than humans and have long ears. Their race is long lived and humans lives seems like child years for them. Elves are excellent craftsmen and have strong minds and nimble bodies. Elves don't usually fight each other and just look into their own matters, except for High Elves who love their political life and has to take part of it, even other kingdoms. Elf is weaker than human in raw power but faster and nimbler.

Elves are incredible archers and mages, also their lightly armored warriors are hard to hit. They also often live in human's settlements.

Elves can procreate with humans which brings a half-elf. Half-elves are builded more like humans and have face hair. They still have long ears but it's easy to pick them out from between the normal elves.

There are three powerful elven faction that have the most to say but there is a few other ones that also exist.

High Elves of Hareth

The royal elves who claim to be the first ones before anyone else. They live on a large island between the continents and many islands spread across the world. They have beautiful craftsmanship and powerful mages. High Elves belive to themselves to be the one true defenders of the world and shun most of other races despite having at least a few politicians in every court in each kingdom. Their arcane power is one of the most fearful weapons they use against others but their normal units are rather weak.

High Elves' army is set on their special units with basic ones simply being a wall to hold off enemy, not letting them throught and allowing others to do the job. The generals in their army are princes and princesses of the royal families and everyone lower is looked down upon. Often it turns out that it's the fault why their army is not as effective as it should be, since they often don't know how a war looks like except for those they read in books.

High Elves belive in many Gods who are supposed to favour them above other elves and races. The truth is only partially true as other elven gods look at other elven faction more. Those that favour High Elves are Thurdilan, The King-God, and Hyrius, The Lord of Seas.

High Elves were rulled by the Pheonix King, who was wielding a greatsword of eternal fire. That is until the Pheonix King was killed in a battle and the blade went missing. Since centuries High Elves' royal representatives meet in court to lead the nation while searching for the greatsword in secret from each other to gain the power as the sword marks the wielder as the next King.

Also, High Elves are exclusive slaves for representative meanings. They are very beautiful so if a girl is lucky she can become a maid of some noble family or even lady-in-waiting, if she's not then the large and influential houses of pleasure always seek a pretty High Elf...
