Half-Elf (DHR)

__TOC__
Half-Elf (Cha'Tel'Quessir)
Major Homelands: See the following. No half-elves can live on Evermeet, though some can visit there briefly. The information below on the frequency of different types of half-elves is an update of material in A Grand Tour of the Realms, page 12, from the 1993 FORGOTTEN REALMS boxed set.
* Half-Gold Elf: Very rare; a handful live in Cormanthor near the Elven Court.
* Half-Moon Elf: Common; individuals are widespread across Faerûn, especially in cosmopolitan places where humans and moon elves meet regularly (for example, Everlund, Neverwinter, Silverymoon, Sundabar, and Waterdeep in the North, and Baldur's Gate and Berdusk in the Sword Coast). The presence of half-moon elves is more a testimony to the wanderlust of moon elves than of humans.
* Half-Wild Elf: Uncommon; many appear in Aglarond's Yuirwood and the coastal city of Urve, and some are from Deepingdale, Cormanthor's Tangled Trees community, the Forest of Tethir, Elventree and Elmwood along the southern Moonsea coast, and various forests and small towns in the North (for example, Everlund and Loudwater), the Sword Coast (Baldur's Gate and Daggerford), and Turmish (Gildenglade and Xorhun).
* Half-Drow Elf: Varies; nearly 15% of the entire population of small, isolationist Dambrath in the Shining South is of this type, but individuals elsewhere are extremely rare.
* Half-Sea Elf: Very rare; most of these come from western shore communities of Waterdeep, the Sword Coast, Tethyr, Amn, Calimshan, the Moonshaes, and Lantan; extremely few are known around the Sea of Fallen Stars.
