[QUOTE="SpiderMonkey, post: 2208766, member: 11385"] I have two (known) tribes of elves in my homebrew. The "good" (i.e. the ones that the PCs are allied with) are inspired by the Eberron "death elves", while the "evil" (well, they pretty much [I]are[/I] ) elves are very Moorcock inspired. However, instead of demon patrons, they are very involved with the Cthulhu mythos, and many of them worship/try to gain the favor of Shub Niggurath and her servitors. That is one elven wood you do NOT want to go to. Both are very Fae influenced (think of Gaiman's Faire Court). Even the sole PC elf in the campaign (there were some half-elves though), while an outcast, was something of a degenerate and hedonist. Come to think of it, he was a really interesting character in that in trying to emulate human morality, he tended to overdo it, nearly needlessly martyring himself on several occasions, while still maintaining a subtle sort of noblesse oblige with the 'precious humans.'
