Basic Description:
Wood elves are solitary elves. They want nothing to do with the other species. They are friends with the wood and the beasts that dwell among them. They do not appreciate outsiders among them, and even distrust the special guests that are welcomed by the leader..

They are small, the tallest reaching to only 5'3. Even then it is rare to see them at that height. They usually range 4' - 5'. They are wear earth toned leather and elven clothes. They live high up in the trees, a city connected to large trunks. Trading, homes, and merchants are everywhere, hidden away from the dangers below.

Every elf has the classic long pointy ears. They're ears are longer than Dark elves and Half elves, but shorter than High elves, average of 8 inches in length have been reported as the longest.

Homeland: They originated from the Kelethin forest, which was later turned into their own unique city. Not much as changed over the thousands of years they have owned this forest however.

Gender: Male and Female

Breeding: While they are not considered immortal, because they live such a long lifespan breeding takes late in life. A wood elf does not sexually mature until around 100 years, though physically they finish growing at around 45, except for their ears. Ears grow their entire life.

Lifespan: The elves are still unsure how long they can live. The oldest elf they knew of was Heartrage, who lived to be over 600 years. Unfortunately a disease they deemed the 'wood death' takes effect on most of their kind at around 400, destroying their immune system and becomes fatal in the course of a year. The reason for this is still unknown.

Powers:
Magic is still very new among wood elves. In the past couple hundred years they have been able to control certain abilities. They have been able to name the certain traits that have come to play:

*Druids : Nature lovers who are able to master at one technique of healing, animal morphing, or fighting. The other two are just abilities they are somewhat good at. The animal sides they may choose from are either wolves, bears, or foxes.
*Cleric: A cleric is one who is able to heal deadly wounds and those who are close to death. These are about to only creatures who truely cannot die. However, they can still feel the pain when hurt, and it takes a while to heal if it is something like a spear through the stomach. Try living with that for a few weeks. They are able to give up their immortality however if they choose to revive one who is already dead. This is only a one time deal, if they do that, their immortality is gone, and they would be able to get killed.

For those who do not own the ability to create magic may become a ranger:
*Ranger: A ranger is one who is experienced in longshot weapons, like bow and arrows. They have silent steps, able to hide in bushes without another noticing and shoot very accurately.

Basic Description:
The species that have a ego as large as a castle. They think highly of themselves, head held high and not afraid to tell another one off. They dress in the finest of fabrics, their hair seeming to glow with their purity, and their eyes always shining like the sun.

They are a tall race, ranging from 5'5 - 8'5.

They live in a grand city, highly protected by guards. None but high elves can get in, unless another is accompanied by a friend. Inside lay beautiful buildings, each engraved with markings of the old languages, gardens decorating the walk ways, waterfalls from the sheer cliffs that protect their home. Everything seems so bright and cheery, and it hardly ever rains.

This is the oldest of all the elf species, and live the longest. They believe they are the only immortal race of elf.

Homeland: Faydwer

Gender: Male and Female

Breeding: This is next to impossible. A chance of a high elf coupling with another high elf is 1 in a thousand pretty much, so children are very rare with high elves. Almost no one in the city is younger than 200, the last known pureblood was Primeria. High elves cannot breed with other elves, as the magic in their genes are too strong. A high elf and another elf of different kind is more than capable of getting pregnant, but the magic will kill the child within the first year of its life. The only way a high elf will ever think to carry is if they pair with a human.

Lifespan: Unknown. The oldest high elf among them is Crestmoon, who is currently over four thousand years, the oldest living member on Uthop. He's stopped counting birthdays.

Powers:

*Cleric: A cleric is one who is able to heal deadly wounds and those who are close to death. These are about to only creatures who truely cannot die. However, they can still feel the pain when hurt, and it takes a while to heal if it is something like a spear through the stomach. Try living with that for a few weeks. They are able to give up their immortality however if they choose to revive one who is already dead. This is only a one time deal, if they do that, their immortality is gone, and they would be able to get killed.

*Mage: Mage, or magician, is one who has power over the four elements. They usually carry a staff with a stone embedded in the top.
