Elf

Category:Species
The Sciotopis dryadalis, also known as the Elves who often called themselves Aeldari are one of the most fairest and wisest of all the intelligent races of Gaia. They are tall, slender humanoids who are inherently magical and live for millennia. There have been three known races of Elves in history: the High Elves also known as Calaquendi, Dark Elves also known as Dökkálfar and Silvan Elves also known as Asrai.
Much like humans, Elves vary in appearance between races. They however regularly possess high cheekbones and slightly angular faces and slanted eyes. Some depictions show them with completely black eyes, while in others they possess human-normal pupils and irises.
High Elves are often distinguished from their distant cousins. With powerful traits such as an imposing height that bordered between six feet and eight feet on average, and visages that personified their very gender. Dark Elves however have some qualities that they shared with High Elves, they lacked the height and beauty of their higher kin. Silvan had the greatest difference between the two, shorter than even a Human on average, they retained their beauty however and are still considered the most beautiful race on Gaia.
Assuming they do not die a violent death, Elves are capable of living for several thousand years. However, Silvan Elves do not share the same longevity as their cousins. It is not considered impossible for an Elf to live seven thousand years or more. Most often an Elf will not die of old age in the human sense, rather he or she will simply grow weary of the world's troubles and lose passion for life, eventually slipping away into death.
Elves are inherently magical, and their long lives provide magically-gifted elves more than enough time to train their skill at controlling many of the Winds of Magic. This is in contrast to human wizards, who can usually only hope to wield one form of magic during their lifetimes. Elves are resistant to disease and to physical mutations.
