== Description ==
== Description ==
Elves are the most ancient race. They have mastered the arts of Magic and are able to use the spells of man. Elves are much taller than [[Dwarf|Dwarves]] and [[Gnome|Gnomes]], and possess an impressive affinity for magic. It is unknown if they sleep or not as there are claims they do not sleep, but meditate instead. However, these stories are uncorroborated and may be untrue, although Elves are able to fall into an unconscious state that resembles sleep. Elves bury their dead by sprinkling small amounts of dirt over the corpses [http://live.urealms.com/cards#accessory-00016-jarofelvenbrownsand].  
Elves, along with [[Highbear|Highbears]], were the first two races known to be created by the Sun Dragon Gods during the Hatching. The Elves have a very distinct appearance, being taller than [[Dwarf|Dwarves]] and [[Gnome|Gnomes]] with long pointy ears, and notably fair skin. Elves are also noted to be more powerful as they age, or at least this was claimed by [[Virgo Sunsword]], who was a Grand Paladin before his death and has lived since before the Birth of Magic.  


===Elven Culture===
Elves are notably proficient in magic, often learning multiple schools of magic from different classes. This gives them a wide range of abilities from simple jobs, such as [[Zanaria Vinisto]] using her Ice Magic to run an Ice Cream Parlor, to being militaristic in nature, such as the [[Sunswords Military|Sunsword Military]].  
Elves do not view [[Goblin|Goblins]] as their equals, and most will not refrain from killing Goblins almost immediately. Elves have been known to mix with other races as they even have a sub-race, [[Elf#Dwelf|Dwelf]], through mating with Dwarves.


====[[The Elven Families]]====
There is some conflicting information about some things the Elves have claimed. For example some Elves have claimed to not require sleep, but meditate instead, while others do sleep. One notable example of an Elf claiming to sleep is [[Ca-Rell]].
Elves took control of much of the land, with certain families rising to power in different regions with their own militaries and leaders. While these families may appear hostile to each other on the outside, they may rely on trading certain materials, such as Dragon Scales, in order to help each other survive. Even though some Elves view themselves higher than the other races, they have created treaties, such as [[The Elven Families#The Ironstone Accords|The Ironstone Accords]], to set out laws that treat, in this case, Elves and Dwarves the same.


====The Elven Alphabet====
== History ==
Elves have their own alphabet in URealms Live. A guide to translate the letters can be found [http://i.imgur.com/JvlyWYl.png here]
Elves were created in the Realms by the Sun Dragon God [[Phanto]] after the Hatching, and were protected by him. During this time, Elves could not feel any physical pain and could not die. However, the Old Gods killed Phanto and caused the Birth of Magic, so this caused Elves to no longer be immortal and allow them to truly feel the harshness of the world they live in. It was seen in [[The Senate of Deadlantis]] that several Elves simply went insane due to their newfound ability to inflict pain unto others and plunged the world into chaos for some time, it was said that 80% of the Elven population was killed during this time.


===Elven People===
==Elven Culture==
====Dwelf====
The Elves control most of the Realms, with certain families rising to power in different regions with their own militaries and leaders and are known as [[The Elven Families]]. These families are known to ally themselves with the [[Dwarf|Dwarven]] Kings (as seen in [[The Fall of Dundinborough]]), with other Elven families (as seen in [[The Cobblers]]), and with other military orders (as seen in [[The Grand Paladin Order]]).  
Dwelves are a sub-race of Dwarves and Elves that tend to associate more with Elves, and have more Elven traits. On the other hand, Dwelves are able to grow beards and facial hair, unlike most Elves who must use spells of bearding to achieve this. Dwelves aren't protected under treaties such as the Ironstone Accords which has caused problems for families such as the Gandolins, who are mostly Dwelves.


====Gobolf====
However, Elves did have to ally with the Dwarves through treaties, such as [[The Elven Families#The Ironstone Accords|The Ironstone Accords]]. Elves have been known to work closely with Dwelves, unlike their Dwarven counterparts, [[Gnome|Gnomes]] and [[Porc|Porcs]]. However, they do seem to have a low opinion of [[Kobold|Kobolds]], believing them to be mostly bandits. The Elves are most hostile towards [[Goblin|Goblins]], regarding them as scum of the Realms and not truly people, even going out of their way to kill them on sight, as seen in [[Porc Hunters]].  
Goblofs are a sub-race of Elf that, through plagued evolution, have gained the features similar to those of [[Goblin|Goblins]][https://www.urealms.com/cards#gobolf]. Because of this, many people see them as a fusion of a Goblin and an Elf, even though they cannot mate [https://twitter.com/urealms/status/737180056502579200]. Gobolfs often tend to suffer from breathing difficulties, and are usually quite submissive. Even with their appearance, Elves treat Gobolfs as actual people, as they are allowed in the [[Silvermine Mountains (Location)|Silvermine Mountains]], whereas other Goblins are killed, and not taken as prisoners. However, they are still shunned by Elven Society. It is unknown how Gobolfs are treated by other Goblins.

====The Elven Alphabet====
Due to the large number of Elven Families that have history spanning back to before the Birth of Magic, many wealthy families have become very posh and high in status. Elves are considered noble, and many of them may be consuming Dragon Scales to sustain them so they can stay alive for so long.

Elves are an ancient species that were created by the Sun Dragon God Phanto after the Hatching, and have existed since before the Birth of Magic. They are notably very prominent in the Realm and are known for being quiet wealthy and magically gifted.

Description

Elves, along with Highbears, were the first two races known to be created by the Sun Dragon Gods during the Hatching. The Elves have a very distinct appearance, being taller than Dwarves and Gnomes with long pointy ears, and notably fair skin. Elves are also noted to be more powerful as they age, or at least this was claimed by Virgo Sunsword, who was a Grand Paladin before his death and has lived since before the Birth of Magic.

Elves are notably proficient in magic, often learning multiple schools of magic from different classes. This gives them a wide range of abilities from simple jobs, such as Zanaria Vinisto using her Ice Magic to run an Ice Cream Parlor, to being militaristic in nature, such as the Sunsword Military.

There is some conflicting information about some things the Elves have claimed. For example some Elves have claimed to not require sleep, but meditate instead, while others do sleep. One notable example of an Elf claiming to sleep is Ca-Rell.

History

Elves were created in the Realms by the Sun Dragon God Phanto after the Hatching, and were protected by him. During this time, Elves could not feel any physical pain and could not die. However, the Old Gods killed Phanto and caused the Birth of Magic, so this caused Elves to no longer be immortal and allow them to truly feel the harshness of the world they live in. It was seen in The Senate of Deadlantis that several Elves simply went insane due to their newfound ability to inflict pain unto others and plunged the world into chaos for some time, it was said that 80% of the Elven population was killed during this time.

Elven Culture

The Elves control most of the Realms, with certain families rising to power in different regions with their own militaries and leaders and are known as The Elven Families. These families are known to ally themselves with the Dwarven Kings (as seen in The Fall of Dundinborough), with other Elven families (as seen in The Cobblers), and with other military orders (as seen in The Grand Paladin Order).

However, Elves did have to ally with the Dwarves through treaties, such as The Ironstone Accords. Elves have been known to work closely with Dwelves, unlike their Dwarven counterparts, Gnomes and Porcs. However, they do seem to have a low opinion of Kobolds, believing them to be mostly bandits. The Elves are most hostile towards Goblins, regarding them as scum of the Realms and not truly people, even going out of their way to kill them on sight, as seen in Porc Hunters.

Elves have their own alphabet in URealms Live. A guide to transliterate the letters can be found here.
