Elf Elimination League

The Elf Elimination League (EEL) is a hate group located 30 kilometers north of White Salmon near Trout Lake in Salish-Shidhe. They are primarily aimed at the elimination of Elves for various offenses. They were founded in 2055 by Parker Matos and his second in command Scotty Harbin after both lost their jobs in Hood River, Tir Tairngire.

## History

The League began after Parker Matos and Scotty Harbin both lost their jobs as laborers at the Marchesi Vineyards & Winery. Despite evidence at the time pointing to poor work performance, both Matos and Harbin claimed it was discrimination for them being humans and the Vineyard having a preference for either Elves or Orks (the latter for their increased strength). The two briefly made motions of filing anti-discrimination lawsuits, but were laughed out of the Elf-controlled courtroom.

The two relocated across the Columbia River and worked for a time in White Salmon, both taking up work at various organizations such as a composite manufacturing company and a bakery. In 2049, Matos bought the Elk Meadows RV park near Trout Lake, which he rented out to campers enjoying the beauty of the area. While tending to the grounds one day in the spring of 2055, Matos overheard disgruntled complaints from a visitor that he couldn't visit Wahtum Lake in Tir Tairngire due to restrictions on the area near Chinidere Mountain. A brief discussion followed, and Matos came away with the understanding there was strong resentment not just at the nation of Tir Tairngire but elves in general for their perceived superiority to normal humans.

Meeting up for beer with Harbin in White Salmon, the two were still disgruntled over how they were treated over a decade ago and how elves coming across from Tir Tairngire were rude and inconsiderate. They decided to put out feelers into the local communities to see if there was a strong anti-elf mentality, and they received a resounding confirmation. It was then that Matos and Harbin decided to create the Elf Elimination League.

## League Compound Alpha

Already an owner of the Elk Meadows RV park, Matos decided to expand the RV park further and invited people to set up permanent housing on the land to form a compound. Anti-Elf sentiment in the area was exceptionally high, and both humans and other metatypes flocked to what Matos declared to be Compound Alpha. At first there was friction between human members of the league and the other metatypes, but an ork named Malcolm Potter proposed that as they were all anti-elf, that it made sense they would all have common complaints against the "Knife Ears". This cooled tensions and eventually the group became a cohesive whole.

The Compound would center around a central office structure that was expanded to include a cafeteria and street clinic, as well as an outdoor gun range. Due to the frequency of drones either observing or taking shots at the compound, there is now an active anti-drone swarm in the area targeting non-Compound drones, as well as a local area network with a single, high-defense firewall connected to the larger Matrix network.

## Controversies

The League has been involved in a number of controversies over the years, yet has managed to avoid serious legal ramifications thus far due to several prominent lawyers who work pro bono for the League to support their cause.

### Tir Tairngire

Despite never having committed any crimes in Tir Tairngire, both Matos and Harbin are wanted fugitives in the elf nation for "Crimes against the Elven People". As Salish-Shidhe does not currently recognize a formal extradition treaty with Tir Tairngire, there has been no move to actively arrest the two and hand them over to the Principality.

### Lawsuits

To date there have been 5 lawsuits filed, with 3 dismissed and two more still pending against the League. One was put forward by a pro-Elven group within Salish-Shidhe, the other a division of the NAACP. At present, the two lawsuits do not appear to be related, but developments in both cases have influenced the plaintiffs of the other.

### Olivia Clark

One of the dismissed lawsuits was filed by Olivia Clark, an Elf woman living in White Salmon who wanted to challenge the anti-Elf sentiments by claiming she could not move in to the community and thus violated the nation's Equal Housing Protection Act. In court, Matos showed evidence he'd never received such a request to move in, and when asked if she would be allowed to, Matos responded, "She's more than welcome to move in. Whether she chooses to do so is up to her." Despite this invitation, Clark has so far not chosen to take up Matos on his offer, citing various excuses.
