Despite Perception being the best skill, it feels the least elven.Elves can be keenly aware of the fate of each human, and aware of which fate a human merits. So, I am ok with Insight being elven. But I feel Insight itself − in the sense of empathy − is a social skill that should have Charisma as its main go-to ability.The Survival instinct feels especially British relating to fairy who associate fertile soil, whence groves and forests, whence hunting and wilderness. Less so a Norse thing. Some alfr do shapeshift into animals, but the wilderness itself feels less relevant.Arcana and Persuasion feel elven.Nature would be more helpful for upper atmosphere above clouds. It would also help with elemental, alchemical skills, including metallurgy. I would be fine if Nature and Survival merged into a single skill that either Intelligence or Wisdom utilizes depending on what action one does with this competence with Nature.</blockquote>
