Elves and humans are apparently biologically closely related, for they can produce young (Half-Elves, as they're sometimes called, or, less kindly, Goblins). However, 90% of the time, such young are horribly deformed, often simple-minded, and destined for short lives. Goblins are also invariably sterile. Generally speaking, no human in their right mind would want to bear a Goblin – doing so begs heartache and a child who dies before either parent. But Elves – particularly male elves – seem to have no such reluctance. The propensity for Elves to sweep human women off their feet, impregnate them, and then move on is notorious, and, some would say, suspicious. | Elves and humans are apparently biologically closely related, for they can produce young (Half-Elves, as they're sometimes called, or, less kindly, Goblins).

− | There are those who claim that the Elves are trying, with their undoubted prowess in biological magic, to create a viable hybrid species between Elves and Humans – perhaps a species able to use Passion in the human manner, while retaining the Elvish race-loyalty engendered by their empathic abilities. Some claim that human women who bear more viable Goblins tend to disappear, either openly moving into Elvish ghettos with curiously cheerful demeanors, or simply vanishing in the middle of the night. The truth of such allegations has never been proven. | + | There are those who claim that the Elves are trying, with their undoubted prowess in biological magic, to create a viable hybrid species between Elves and Humans – perhaps a species able to use Passion in the human manner, while retaining the Elvish race-loyalty engendered by their empathic abilities.
