[QUOTE="Derro, post: 4140048, member: 51010"] What he said. There is some pretty good elf literature out there. It may not all jibe with your vision of 4e but it's good to mine everywhere. -3.5e Races of the Wild has some decent elf stuff -3e Races of Faerun as well -2e Complete Book of Elves, broken mechanically but not without some interesting elf-flavor -Anything Elfquest, from comic to game. Again maybe not your cup of tea as it is rather a different envisioning of elvish culture than base-line D&D. -Quite a few 3rd part 3e elf books. I believe both Green Ronin and Mongoose released a book. Might be more crunch than you want if you'll be using them with 4e though. -OD&D Elves of Alfheim as somebody mentioned above is pretty good. Very conceptual as to D&D elves and took them that much further from their Tolkienesque roots. -Anything Dragonlance with a good amount of elf culture might be inspirational. It might just be my memory playing tricks but I seem to remember getting a very distinct impression of how different elves are from humans from Krynnish works on the subject. [URL=http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Category:Fictional_elves]Here[/URL] at Wikipedia is their collected link of fictional elf stubs. I've played the all elf campaign a few times. Of course it was always drow... Maybe not the route you want to take with an inexperienced, mainly female group. Might be a bit harsh. [/QUOTE]
