Message: <blockquote data-quote="weem" data-source="post: 5091361" data-attributes="member: 9470">Elves in my setting are the most 'tweaked'.Elves in my setting were once the greatest and most powerful race until an event long ago fractured the kingdom. None know for sure what this event was, but it found the race divided. Many moved South and became what are now called "Wild Elves" or "Jungle" Elves. They live in (you guessed it) the jungles of the South East. They are, despite the name, not "wild" and are as intelligent as ever, though very dangerous and distrustful of anyone not of their kind.The rest remained in the forests of the Last Lands (aka "Forest Elves" - the default elf in 4e).The Wild Elves, during a particularly harsh and devastating winter, crossed the mountains to the West and eventually entered the Zayn Desert. Some returned to the Jungles of the East later, some remained in the desert, becoming what are now known as "Desert Elves" which consist of two cultures...- The Zu'Rakan, or "Desert Elves" (the default Desert Elf - focused on trade and profit)- The Anashara, or "Scarabs" (now feral/wild elves that thrive in the harshest areas of the desert... think slightly mad Fremen from Dune)More recently, when Man was brought to the Last Lands by the One God, the Forest Elves once again faced turmoil as their numbers split down the middle... On one side stood those who wished to help the newcomers who faced starvation and various outbreaks of disease... on the other side stood those who thought it best to massacre every human now, while they were weak.The latter of this group eventually left the Elven kingdom for the great forests to the west. There, these elves gave in to their anger and hatred. They became what are now called the "Lost Elves" (not Dark Elves, just... evil elves who tap into the darkest magic, etc). Years later, as Mankind pressed beyond their new found lands, forcing other races back (including the Forest Elves), the Lost Elves smiled at their brother's misfortune and reveled in their suffering.</blockquote>
