I have "sky elves" in my world (which at one point had a thriving Spelljammer component) who now consider anything flying to be off limits and demand anyone flying to have a license that they provide at a very steep price. The elven sky fleet are the remnants of a much larger fleet that is now grounded, and they live on their ships. They consider groundlings beneath them in the most patronizing way possible, and they gleefully shoot down anyone who invents flying technology or otherwise abuses it. They are my excuse for why any one nation hasn't used magic or steampunk tech to just invade everyone else.And when push comes to shove, they use the bombing tactic [USER=30518]@lewpuls[/USER] has mentioned in the past (<a href="https://www.enworld.org/threads/worlds-of-design-death-from-above.678384/" target="_blank">Worlds of Design: Death from Above</a>), which is pretty effective at reinforcing why you don't want to mess with the elven fleet.</blockquote>
