Shoudreh

An elven outcast. As this concept constitutes an elven taboo, it is only rarely mentioned by elves themselves. When they do, they translate the term to 'a human in an elf's body'. A more literal translation would be 'cut off', 'alone', or 'lost'. It is thought to be something the elf himself in question chooses because he wants to keep his own feelings secret from other elves. The number of shoudrehs is unknown, but is thought to be small. Possible shoudrehs include Fay Targamon, [file:///C:/Users/Jesper/Dropbox/Bandagora/encyc.htm#Teshilden Teshilden], Remenesh Turvalmor, and Augray Minesta. Also Firsyon Aesir, who fell in love with a human woman and married her, betraying many elven secrets in the process, is a likely candidate. Most sages consider him entirely fictitious, however.
