"Don't go into racism with me Vanitri. Some of my good friends are half-elves and a gnome. There's a difference between races that are different and those that are evil. Dark elves are evil Vanitri," Elektra sighs, "And besides which, she killed Imruphel in an illegal mageduel."
 


*Lex shakes her head.*

"No, it's not. There's precedent that if you claim it was an accident, you are punished for the illegal spellduel but not for the murder."
 

"Well, I'll ask her about it at some point, but she certaintly seemed nice enough to me. Did you ever think it was an accident?"
 

"Vanitri, lying about illegal mageduels and saying the death of the other student was an accident is a longstanding tradition. And she's a dark elf. They are evil creatures who worship a demon god and a spider queen and they hate other elves, like Imruphel. It's not hard to put two and two together. Vanitri, don't tell me you fell for a pretty face without thinking about that."
 

"I wasn't told till well after I met her, and she told me a story 'bout how she'd been raised by other elves. I'll keep my eye open, but I'm willing to believe she could simply be a nice girl who's misunderstood. Besides, I can't tell you how many times I've heard references to evil outsiders here, let alone what people think of the 'Folk."

"'Sides, wouldn't I just be trusting one pretty face over another if I took your word for it?" He says teasingly.
 

*Lex shakes her head, but she laughs at the end:*

"See, that's your mistake--I'm not the pretty one, I'm the smart one," she becomes serious quickly, Seriously, though. You don't kill someone if you're just a misunderstood little girl. She's a murderer and as a dark elf probably a demon worshipper--I mean Misha, that's named after Mishtuli the demon prince. She deserves the treatment she gets."
 

"Well, I'll keep my eyes open, but I think you could be wrong. Honestly, I hope you are. It'd be nice to find a good dark elf in the world."

[Cheese]"I know a test, we can see if she dual wields scimitars and can track! Never seen a dark elf do that, so if she can, she must be good!"[/cheese]
 

"Vanitri, it's a sweet thought, but that kind of naivete can get you killed. Do you also talk to demons or undead to check to make sure they aren't the rare good one?"

(OOC: Or if she has a black panther familiar)
