Art: Woodland elf by Artist Noelle Hunt
Creatures of Faerie . . . magic is in their very nature; they are supernatural beings

Created to be the gardeners of the earth, to cultivate life (plant & animal) after the dwarves shaped the elemental forces

The Woodelves They are the most common of elvenkind. They usually wear greens and greys to blend with their surroundings. Sandy hair and light blue, green or grey eyes complement their rustic demeanour. They are adept to moving silently and their presence in in the woods goes unnoticed among the shadows of swaying branches.

The elves are a highly civilized race, but in general elves of every single tribe live their own life far off from all other forms of civilization in their forest (with some very few exceptions). There are no forms of elected ot inherited governing among the elves, leaders are usually not assigned as such but simply respected from the tribe's people according to their nature-given authority. As intuition, feelings and sensitivity are very important elven virtues elven rulers are very often females. There is practically no jealousy or envy among the elves. Everything is shared and in every different field of artisanry each authority is accepted.
