These elves lead the elven people by birthwright. Tall, willowy and graceful, with light hair and fair skin. +2 Dex, -4 Con, +2 Cha.Favored class: sorcererbonus proficiences: longsword, rapier, bows.High Elves: The elven commoners: The common folk and the most common elf in the world. These are the standard elves presented in the PHB, but they are still taller than normal elves.Favored class: wizardbonus proficiencies: longsword, shortsword, bows.Wood Elves: the rebel outcasts. Elves that have returned to the forests to live in harmony with nature. Slightly shorter and more robust than other elves, they tend to have brown hair and vibrant green eyes. Their skin tone has a slight green cast. +2 Dex, -2 Int, -2 Cha.Favored class: druidbonus proficiencies: bows, spear, slingDark Elves: jungle dwellers. Dark-skinned, white-haired elves that inhabit the jungles as the wood elves inhabit the forests. More survivalist and pragmatic than other elves, they have a more neutral outlook compared to their goodly cousins. They are similar to the drow of other worlds, but they are pre-descent. +2 Dex, -2 Con, +2 Int, -2 Chabonus proficiencies: rapier, shortsword, shortbows, handaxeFavored class: wizardThe elven kingdom of Cerryn has existed in its present state for several hundred years ad the basics of elven society have been in place for thousands of years. Elven society is one of benevolent segregation. The grey elven nobility lives mostly apart from the high elf commoners, who manage the workings of the kingdom: agriculture, defense, maintanence, commerce, etc. A high elf council oversees the common matters of the kingdom and the grey elven court of nobles oversees diplomatic relations with other nations, education, organization, etc. Several large cities exist, as well as the capital city, and many smaller communties. The wood elves exist apart from the others, preferring to live closer to nature, as they believe the elves were meant to live. Their settlements are at one with the forest. The dark elves live in the darkness of the deep jungles, and defend their territory zealously. They have representation in the elven court and maintain good relations with their neighbors, as long as their rights are respected.Some notes: Grey elf children are born to both grey, and high elf parents, however by law, any grey elf born to a high elf couple must be given up to be raised in the grey elf noble court. High elves born to grey elf couples are given into orphanages where they are adopted by high elf families, and on occasion, when a high elf and grey elf are born on the same night, their parents swap children.The government is run by a ruling councel which supports the monarchy and is composed of equal representation from the nobility and the commoners, with the wood elves and dark elves each having an independent seat on the councel (the wood elves rarely attend, but there is always a dark elf representative on hand, from whichever dark elf clan currently rules their society).</blockquote>
