[QUOTE="Gez, post: 894362, member: 1328"] Moon elves are the FR equivalent of high elves, but they're taller and thinner (they use human height chart, and elven weight chart). They have pale skin, sometimes a bit blueish. Sun elves are the equivalent of grey elves, but the difference here is more than in size and outlook. They are clumsier but stronger (GE have -2 Str +2 Dex -2 Con +2 Int, SE just have -2 Con +2 Int). They're blond and suntanned. Mystara had the shadow elves, elves driven underground because of a disaster (think of a magical tchernobyl). They are neutral in alignment, are prone to mutation (but abandon twisted babies in the underdark, where they are sometimes adopted by humanoids who confuse the monstrous infant for one of their). The FR also hold the deep elves, or rockseer elves (I think they are the same). I don't know much about them, but they're underground and prefer stones to trees. In that same vein, you have the dwelf. Yeah, dwarf-elf crossbreed. They are a part of FR 2e history (see [i]Dwarves Deep[/i]) but are don't said to be found nowadays. Malenti aren't elves, but elf-looking sahuagin... The star elves come from Unapproachable East, not Races of Faerûn. In Greyhawk, you also have valley elves. They live in the Valley of the Mage, and serve the Mage. (How creative are these names.) Their current leader is a drow. Kingdom of Kalamar has its own varieties of elves, including IIRC a non-ECLed dark elf (stripped of much of its special capacities). EverQuest d20 too (high, wood and dark). Otherwise, you've forgot santa elves, keebler elves, and house elves. Myself, I decided to limit the elves to three races IMC, grey (as civilized mariners), wood (as primitive wolfriders), and high (as decadent bastards). [/QUOTE]
