Now I'll post the traits of the elven races
----------------------
Elves
Common elven traits
All elves have this traits, unless it's mentioned in the subrace description
* Keen senses: all elves have a +2 racial modifier to spot and listen, and low light vision
* Clear mind: elves do not need to sleep, but only to "dream" (actually a form of meditation) for four hours a day; note that they also need another four hours of non stressfull activity to regain forces, because their bodies are just like those of the other people (except that elves live longer).
This makes them immune to magical sleep and grants them a +2 bonus to will saves vs enchantments.
* Elven fraility: -2 Constitution: elves are not tought as humans or dwarves
* Weapon training: All elves are proficient with the standard bows (short, long & composite) and with the short sword, regardless their character class.
* Automatic languages: Elven
The elves are divided into four enthinc groups: sea, coast, wood and star elves; there are also the winged elves, that originally were star elves but changed much when they attained their transformation to flying creatures.
Wood Elves (Quendi)
Wood elven traits:
* +2 Dex: they move swiftly throught the trees like the wild animals.
* Wilderness lore is a class skills
* Favored class: ranger

Wood elven subgroups:
Green elves (Laiquendi): as standard wood elves, except that they have also Knowledge (nature) as a class skill: interest in nature is present in all these elves, even in those who choose other classes that ranger
Brown elves (Varniquendi): as wood elves, but they have -2 Cha instead of -2 Con: they are stronger than ordinary elves, bu they don't like outsiders and tend to be rought

Silver Elves (Silmeldar): proficient also with the longsword and the long and short spears; the character can choose his favored class between wizard and figher. They cannot choose Perform as the skill that receives the racial +2 modifier of star elves.
I have a feeling it was somewhere on the Places & Plots forum.
