Elves are one of the many races of Saratta. They tend to have a much lighter build than a human and distinct pointed ears. They live all across the world, but live mostly on Thistol Narod. There are three elven "nations" each with their own distinct cultures.

Physical Characteristics

Elves are physically similar to Humans. They are on average slightly shorter and lighter. Their facial features are commonly much sharper than a human's and have pointed ears. Their eye color is most commonly green and their complexion is usually light, although this varies slightly by nation.

Cultural Characteristics

The three Elven nations have distinct cultures, but share some traits. As a whole the Elven race values pure blooded Elves much higher over half-Elves. All of their cultures are also tied closely to nature in some way. The interpretation of this differs from each nation.

They prize their appearance as is shown with their cities and lands. The forests of Tyr are magically shaped to give them the appearance of perfection. They are openly a slaving nation and considered one of the most brutal. Their culture is heavily based around rising in class status.
