Message: <blockquote data-quote="Yaarel" data-source="post: 9349779" data-attributes="member: 58172">Every Elf innately casts three spells: cantrip, slot 1, and slot 2. Different cultures tend toward different magical preferences. (The player should choose these three spells, but the culture that the character is from will have statistical tendencies.)The different physiologies are ethnicities. Elves generally lack facial hair. A few individuals have beards because of some Human ancestor. Drow cultures have individuals with solid eyes, wolf eyes with large irises, and human eyes. Elves are shapeshifters, and continue to have shifting appearances, including the possibility of glowing eyes. The same Elf individual can appear differently at different times, such as Eladrin culture shifting seasonally. But all Elves shift in ambient ways, including to appear hyper clean, groomed, and polished.All Elves are eternally youthful. They age at a human rate until 20, then remain apparently 20 ever after. Elves can die of non-age-related causes, thus on average live for various numbers of centuries, depending on environment. But individuals are still around since the dawn of time. Some Elves might use magic to appear differently.There is a single simple Elf species. There are over a hundred different known Elf cultures.Now that 5e makes the Ability improvement part of background. The Elf species can feature individuals with any Ability being exceptional. Possibly a prevalence of certain backgrounds tend to promote certain Abilities on average within a particular culture. But any individual can heighten any Ability.</blockquote>
