Elves
Elves are very strange creature, their apparence and abilities varies deeply from individuals. Elves are in fact magical creature created during the god-know-when era, for god-know-why. Some elves take pleasure about giving thier particular breed a special name (and since the race vary deeply in apparence and ability there actually a shit-ton of elven "breed"). Some call themselves wood elves because they live in the wood, other high elves because they are pricks.
Let not even talk about the slime elves.
Satirical text and failed humor aside, elves are of any form, color and are incredibly different from each others, this make them pretty awesome as a race in theory. Too bad they tend to act like pricks and exile those with darker skin below the earth or simply fight between each others for trivial reason. The only common traits between elves apparence is their humanoid form, some elves can be red-skinned other may have bright purple hair. When a player is creating an elf, he can really unleash his creativity.
