[QUOTE="MrApothecary, post: 4353408, member: 71646"] Kinda jumping around here.... Elves. For some reason, I really want to base the various subraces off of gemstones. I can see them being worshipped as lesser gods by many humans. Despite the fact that their empires are thousands of years older, humans came first. The Eladrin, hedonistic as they are, lay with ancient humans, and the race of elves were the result. Every year, each elven nation sends a representative to the the Suiislaan, the Elven High Court, where matters pertaining to the whole elven race are decided. There are eight elven subraces. The highest, the diamond elves, are the "purest of the elves", whatever that is supposed to mean. The ruby elves are from the tropics, and have a rich warrior tradition. The quartz elves are a result of ruby and diamond elf intermarriage. They have no organized society, living mostly with humans and psychics. They are apt at psionics. They is also the topaz elves. These elves usually live in arid areas, and are quite adapt at conjuration and transmutation. Emerald elves are forest dwellers. They are the most common elf race, and are oddly descended from a mix of topaz and sapphire. The Sapphire elves have a maritime culture. Their ships are the most beautiful in Alrune, but not the fastest. That honor goes to the Locathahs' partially submerged vessels. The Amethyst elves are very reclusive. They are masters of divination and enchantment, and are descended from ruby and sapphire. Finally, there are the shattered elves. These pale and evil folk live in the depths of the Underdark. They are not represented in the Suiislaan. [/QUOTE]
