Valkihari

Valkihari (Homo sapiens nobilis) appeared for the first time roughly 20,000 B.C.E. Starting from this year, some human mothers bore dwarvish, valkiharian, or orcish children. Medical researchers called the transformation of these babies Unexplained Genetic Expression (UGE). This genetic alteration is thought to have occurred because of the Void and its influence on biology.
== Characteristics ==
Adult Valkihari are on the average slightly taller than humans (≈190cm), and they are usually somewhat more lightly built (i. e. thinner with an average weight of 72kg), but equally as strong. Their most remarkable characteristic are their pointed ears. Their skin color varies, similarly as with humans, from white to black. Body hair is sparse but head hair is full and fine. Elven eyes are almond-shaped. 
Thanks to metabolic testing, it has been shown that Valkihari have a potential lifespan of several hundred years or more, with certain unexplained genes (usually found in powerfully magical elves) giving some an even longer lifespan. Like Orks, Valkihari are endowed with more, and more sensitive, rod cells in their eyes, giving them natural lowlight vision. For that, they are believed to be naturally nocturnal, and a lot of elves - but not all of them - are vegetarians.
Elves have created their own countries: Baal Amori in western North America (WA, OR), Kael'escine (Ireland), the Renari Nation (South African) and Kael  in the North East of the Allied German States.
