Grey Elf (Race)

Additional Experience Cost: +15% exp required to level up each level.
Can exceed the level limits for the allowable classes if they have high prime requisite scores (DMG Table 8).
Can choose to use any kit allowed to elves. Can choose not to use a kit at all.
Special Advantages:
* Grey elves have unlimited access to their own libraries and sages. Any information the grey elf council determines to be good for the elf race may be furnished to grey elf PCs for a cheaper price than they would find elsewhere. 
** This is purely discretionary on the part of the DM and should be played accordingly.
Special Disadvantages:
* Grey elves receive a –3 on all reaction adjustments when dealing with non-elves.
* With other elves, grey elves suffer a –1 on reaction adjustments.
* With other grey elves there is no reaction adjustment.
==Standard Elf Abilities==
Unless otherwise stated above, each elf has the following abilities:
* Elves are 90% resistant to sleep- and charm-related spells. Even if they fail a check, they get the save usual for such spells.
* Elves gain a special bonus to find secret or concealed doors. Passing within 10 feet of a secret door, elves will detect it on a roll of 1 on a 1d6. If they search a 10-foot-square area, elves can find a secret door on a roll of 1 or 2 on a 1d6. Elves find concealed doors on a roll of 1, 2, or 3 on a 1d6.
* Elves gain a special bonus with bows, excluding crossbows. When firing a bow, an elf gains a +1 to hit. This does not apply to damage unless a specially made bow is used that takes advantage of a Strength bonus.
* Elves are especially good with short and long swords. Like their abilities with bows, they gain a +1 to hit (but not on damage) when using one of these weapons. This is in addition to any bonuses of the weapon itself.
* Elves move through forests and other natural terrain silently and almost invisibly. As long as elves are not attacking, they can only be spotted by someone who can spy invisible objects. When elves move through the woods, if they are careful, they will appear only as shadows of the leaves of trees, dancing in the undergrowth. This is of immense value to elves, who can thus gather information about their enemies—enemies who often do not even suspect an elven presence.
* Finally, elves have the ability to give their enemies a - 4 penalty to a surprise roll if the elf is: 1) moving alone, 2) is 90 feet away from the rest of their party, or 3) is with other elves or halflings and all are in nonmetal armor. If the elf must open a door or screen to get to the enemy, the penalty is reduced to —2.
