Detailed Description

Elves can live for hundreds of years. Their skill and knowledge are usually superior to humans but they are usually more fraile and less resilient. Their resolve however can be just as strong as any other creature. In stature, they are slightly shorter and lighter than most humans and are generally considered fairer in appearance. They can move just as fast as humans and their senses are significantly sharper. Elves have low-light vision which allows them to see twice as far as humans even in near darkness.

Most elves are sylvan folk. They tend to live in great forests where they are in harmony with nature and free to uncover natural and arcane secrets of the world without interference from less sympathetic civilizations. Many elves thus become rangers and druids though wizard is their favored character class. Elves are also inherently resistant to certain forms of magic. They are immune to all sleep spells. In addition, elves have the following racial traits.

• +2 bonus when rolling Dexterity scores
• -2 penalty when rolling Constitution scores
• +2 bonus to saves against Enchantment spells and spell-like effects
• +2 bonus to Listen, Search, and Spot skill checks

Elves typically exist in fantasy campaign settings.
