Normally I don't come across this question in my games, but one of my players threw me a curve ball. I figured if anywhere EN World would have an answer.
We are playing D&D 3.5 with some stuff borrowed from Pathfinder. Usually I have a pretty high amount of humans in my groups. Very few nonhumans. I do have a player who wants to play a half elf. Thing is the plain vanilla half elf is not very common in this region. In this particular region wild elves are much more common. Think the spear wielding Gurgach of Greyhawk or the painted and tattooed Kagonesti of Dragonlance.
So my question is with half elves it is assumed it is human and standard or high elf. What about human and some other kind of elf...like wild elf, sea elf or drow? Does WOTC have an official ruling on it? Have other publishers come up with their answer to that question. What about you DM's and players out there, how have you all addressed this.
