They would have exceptionally good diplomats and would likely be very good merchants and traders. Now, it depends on the usual demenor of these empathic elves. I would seriously not be happy with someone who could read my thoughts and would then proceed to jibe  me about it. However, if they were subtle - kept their empathic abilty secret - most people would regard them a mysterious or exceptionally preceptive.Depending on the exclusive empathic elven society, language would be both a combination of thought and speech. This could also lead to some misunderstandings with foreigners and possible difficulty learning other languages, however, once mechanics are down - they would quickly pick up subtleties like sarcasm, innuendo, and partial truths. Society as a whole would be a very open thing, lying would be almost inexplicable and their expression of emotions would be sort of a out in the open experience.Hmm, I'm drawing a blank on anything else right now. I'll add some more if I think of anything.Erge</blockquote>
