Elven Race

**The Elven Race** is one of the main races seen on the FFF-Class Trashero Series and one of the most notorius races that inhabitates Fantasia and recently have become the ruler race on the Festival World.

## Culture

### Social hierarchy

The elven society has recognized the autocarcy, absolute power, of their leaders and royal family since their begginins in Fantasia, without much as a formal rebelion nor an attemp to change the goverment system. Its said that back in their beggining as a tribal society, they have multiple leaders, nevertheless the absolute leader, or at least the most important, was the originator of this race in Fantasia, Phoenix, the First Elf, who oprimed the whole elf population. This could be understood by the harsh conditions of life that the first elves had and their need of a strong an centered leadership, although it was an abusive one as that of the First Elf King. However, following the great rule of Elfheim and the improvement of the standing of the elves in Fantasia, it could be supposed that the elf citizens get a great appreciation for their rulers, the royal family. Nowadays the elves, and specially the royal family, tend to consider the royal linage as a "sacred" thing that must be preserved no matter what.

### Lifestyle and population decrease

In actual times, the elf commoners have grown complacient with their social standing, even under the rule of the innept Elf King, since their lives have become very similar to the ones of first world wealthy citizens of Earth thanks to the exploitation of the spirits. Since the spirits make all the menial labors, farming and primary activities they could be considered the base of the social piramid of the elf society in the Elfheim Kingdom. However, this in turn have had a price that the elves that left go unnoticed; that is that at the same way in Earth the most wealthy countries' citizens doesn't feel the need to have offspring, the elf that nowadays live comfortable lives doesn't feel the need to get marry since they could subsit by their own without the help of a wife or husband, just needing the spirits, an aspect that Kang Han Soo compared with prefering 2D to real life relationships. This way the elf matrimonies have gone in decrease and their already low population has been becoming lower since the times where the spirits were enslaved.

### Love for the Nature & Spirit Frienship

As part of their initial association with the spirits and even nowadays the elf have a great respect for the nature in order to not get angry the spirits, who love the natural enviroment, for this reasons their architecture development or gastronomy culture doesn't developed with the killing of animals for their meat, nor the destruction of forest to open space for construction. As so, the elf kingdoms in Fantasia tends to get surrounded by dense forest and doesn't follow practices that spoil the nature in any way. This consideration for the spirits is preserved even nowadays because the common elves sincerely believe that the spirits loves the elven race for their respect of nature and that they developed an innate "friendship" upon their born. However at the same time the elves never questioned why the spirits had to make all the hard labor on their countries or fight for them even when they dislike violence, justifiying all that in the name of "frienship".

### Gastronomy

The elf gastronomu is mostly composed of fruits and grains, prodcuts derivated form them and sasuages created based in them, being considered as a good meal by the Earth citizen Kang Han Soo. Back in their ancient past 2000 years ago, the elves were insectivores that consume this tiny beings, like cockroaches, since their resources were greatly limited. This changed with Elfheim's ascense to the power and after the unification of the race and the creation of their kingdom a new gastronomy culture started to born.
