Elves

Referred to as Epichants by scholars, they are a minority race in both Magnia and the Skahazadans along with the dwarves. Elves are characterized by long faces, pointed ears, and a skin fold of the upper eyelid, making their eyes narrowed and slanted, known by scholars as an Epicanthic Fold. It is unknown where they originated from, although some legends suggest they hail from the far east, from lands yet undiscovered.
Whatever independent culture they once might have had, is now non-existent and most Epichants dwell in city slums, or alm houses, or work as slaves. In the Chorenese, elves have always been the victims of brutal pogrom's and racist proclamations and in recent years, paranoia surrounding elves are at an all time high. Many fear that the elves are secretly working together to take control of the Kingdoms.
=== The Danse Macabre ===
Many elves, especially in the Chorenese, believe that one day, their ancestors will arrive on earth to play the most wonderful music and lead the world into a long procession, forced to dance until they drop dead. Only the strongest of mind, who have endured the most torment, which they believe to be elven-kind, will be able to stay alive until the procession reaches the New World, where they may live in peace for eternity.
