==General Characteristics== Unlike many fantasy rpg settings, elves are not the saintly defenders of wood and hollow. While they do have a deep connection to nature through their fey bloodline, and they are very peaceful, it is not necessarily due to altruism but rather pragmatism. If asked many elves would freely admit to longing to days of legend when their people ruled Polesia, bringing some sense of propriety and wisdome to the "lesser" races. But due to their declining numbers and declining numbers of fey allies in Polesia the elves stick mostly to their fortresses and forest retreats, using their natural stealth and expertise with ranged weaponry to take down despoilers and foes from a distance rather than lose even more of their numbers in an unnecessary pitched battle. Elves have long since lost their central governments (the last one Aredhel, was brutally destroyed by the kingdom of Shahar-Khet and the elves have yet to fully recover) and as such they operate very independently, using their own judgement or (more likely) following their own whims, and come together in force only when the situation is dire. But in general elves can be found just about everywhere in Polesia doing just about anything that most other races would do.
